Burlington Township's Newest Residents

Real Estate Consulant & Realtor Leander McClain, welcomes Burlington Township's newest residents; Capt Jermaine Boyd and family. Capt Boyd is a pilot currently stationed at McGuire Air Force Base. Capt. Boyd and his family transferred to McGuire from Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma.

During the transition period, Capt Boyd contacted Leander McClain a local Realtor ® who specializes in Military Relocation and residential real estate in Burlington Township, New Jersey. Capt. Boyd indicated that he was looking for a Realtor® who would listen to his needs and handle all of the fine details. Capt. Boyd was drawn to Leander after doing a google search and reading one of his blog postings titled "How To Please Absolutely Everyone" http://activerain.com/blogsview/526688/How-To-Please-Absolutely. The post showed that Leander had a sense of humor. Capt Boyd contacted Leander and after several telephone interviews, hired him as his Realtor®.

Leander arranged to show the couple a variety of houses during their very brief house hounting trip. The couple viewed homes in Bromley Place, Bridle Club, Oxford Place, Steeplechase, Sunset Ridge, Trellis Green in Burlington Township New Jersey. During that trip, the couple was able to narrow down the many choice homes in Burlington Township, New Jersey. Leander was able to negotiate the a final price that was $20,000 below the original asking price as well as several other seller concessions.

The Boyd Family is currently settling into their new home. If you are interested in the same fantastic service that the Boyd family received, contact Leander McClain, Exit Buyers Plus Realty, 15 E. Broad Street, Burlington, NJ 08015 609-505-6578.

Burlington County, NJ

Our local housing market has followed the expected downward trend this year. Early predictions of recovery this year appear to be incorrect. Many experts agree that the market has reached or is near the bottom. However, there is no agreement when conditions will approve. Prices in Burlington County have dropped 4% and the number of sales have dropped 15% over the last 12 months.

Joseph Seneca, professor at Rutgers Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy said there were some encouraging signs in the New Jersey real estate market, including a statewide increase in home sales in recent months, a fairly constant level of unsold inventory, and a slow decrease in prices, which he said probably helps the market.

"Foreclosures will continue to rise, and a good amount of the sales we've seen, particularly of existing homes, are fire sales of foreclosed homes being conducted by banks. So the housing market remains on a downward trajectory and prices are likely to continue to erode into 2009, nationally and in New Jersey."

The current housing situation is not bad news for all. The current market is very attractive for buyers with good credit. Sellers who are interested in selling there home can also make out well if the home is priced to sell. Sellers should remember that even though they will walk away from the closing table with less money, they will be able to purchase more home than 12 months ago. Buyers & sellers interested in learning what opportunies are available to them should contact Leander McClain, Real Estate Consultant, 609-505-6578
