What's selling or, who's buying, or trying to???

I don't know about the rest of you Realtor's but the people that are calling me are the ones who currently rent and see this as an opportune time to buy...

They have a little money in the bank and can afford around a payment of $2000.00 a month...that means..they're looking for something that looks OK at a bottom dollar price...I'm talking $180,000- $250,000...tough to find...

They are worried about the school district, the neighbors, the amenities...you all know! (I hope).

So,,,that being said, there are a few good deals out there, not a lot, but they buyers are now, starting to "come out of the closet", so to speak...they're still scared but they are trusting us to help them make informed decisions...

Are any of you out there experiencing the same??? Just curious...

What is selling in South Florida?

The current market is those who can buy between $200K and $350K. Most of the people are renters with a little cash in the bank looking for great deals in the current market. They (unfortunately) do not understand what the taxes and insurance do to their payments. They don't understand that for a $240,000. home with the additional costs of owning a home their payments are at least $2000. per month, that's with a good credit score and some seasoned money and a down payment.

Scary that in some cases that the taxes and insurance are almost as much as the mortgage payment. Mortgage insurance (without a large downpayment) is also a shock!

What do you do? What do you say? Buyer's are still scared of the market, but with an above average Mortgage Broker, you can make the deal happen if they have some money in the bank and have documented income.

What are the rest of you seeing in this market?
