The numbers for the Omaha real estate market are in for the month of October and they are a little disappointing. Based on the rate of sales there is currently just over a six month supply of homes to sell. This is the largest supply of homes since February 2009.

Much of this is due to the looming expiration of the $8,000 First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit. If this were to be extending, as some in Congress are proposing, I expect that sales would pick up a bit.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! With the end of the month here, it's time for my monthly blog summary of new homes for sale. If you or someone you know is looking for a home, check these out.
3318 S 19 St in the Deer Park subdivision of Omaha
5269 N 111 Cir in the Escalante Hills Replat II
2808 N 170 Cir in the Manchester Park subdivision of Omaha
9235 Tomahawk Blvd in the Tomahawk Hills subdivision of Omaha
5718 N 127 St in the Winchester Heights subdivision of Omaha
413 Bellevue Blvd in the Hillcrest subdivision of Bellevue
Also this month I did a featured blog on the arboretum that OPPD established at 108th & Blondo. Here it is again in case you missed it.
The sale of a property I was representing in the Southern Oaks subdivision of Bellevue at 2721 Coffey Ave closed and the buyer was represented by Lisa.
Working with a good agent makes my job much easier. Lisa did a great job and made the sale very smooth.
I hope we can do more business together in the future.
The sale of my listing at 10906 Black St in the Deerwood subdivision of Omaha closed and the buyer was represented by Ron.
Working with a good agent makes my job much easier. It is time consuming selling over 50 homes a year, but having a good agent on the other side of a sale makes closing a deal much easier.
Ron was a pleasure to work with.
Nancy assisted with the sale of my listing at 20920 Roundup Rd in Skyline Estates by representing the buyer.
Working with a good agent makes my job much easier. Selling real estate is time consuming, but working with good agents makes transactions easier.
Nancy made this an easy sale and I hope we can do business again.

I initially started in real estate as an investor. Once I learned everything I could on real estate investing it only seemed natural to become a Realtor to assist others in the Omaha area with buying and selling real estate. I still actively invest in real estate and own seven investment properties. Buyers and sellers that utilize my services can have great confidence in my ability because I actually put my money on the line. In my opinion, hiring a Realtor that does not invest in real estate is like hiring a stock broker that does not invest in the stock market.
While showing homes to buyers is definitely seen as the more glamorous side of real estate, it is also the easier side of the business. My area of focus is working with sellers. I enjoy the challenges of selling a home - everything from proper pricing and positioning of a home to expanding my marketing and networking with other Realtors.

From a letter sent by an out of state seller who is also a Realtor:
Thanks for all your help getting both of my homes sold. I feel lucky to have found you to handle these transactions. You truly have been professional, pro-active, and easy to work with. I'm even incorporating some of your techniques into my own business.
From feedback surveys sent by my broker to my clients:
I always felt like I knew what was going on with constant updates & Wednesday check-ins. Fast sale was nice of course.
We needed a quick sale and that is exactly what you delivered. Thanks!
Thank you for helping us sell our house and for a smooth transaction. It was a very stressful 2 months but Troy kept us calm and helped us make the necessary adjustments to get that offer! I will definitely spread the word about Alliance & Troy!
Troy is the definition of Professional.
I really appreciated the service I got from Troy. My home was less than $100,000. He had several listings over $150,000 on up. I never felt that I was slighted by Troy because my house was not as valuable as his other homes.
