Non-Distressed Homes for Sale in Belfair bring Multiple Offers!

That is the latest scenario that we have been seeing on homes for sale in the Belfair area that are under $250,000 and are a good value for the price.

Buyers are shying away from the short sale homes for sale because of the frustration in the length of time it takes the short sale lenders to respond to their offers never mind actually close the transaction.

Bank owned properties are getting a lot of looks, but they are not always quick to sell because of the condition that they are in.

This means that the buyers are out looking at non-distressed, non-bank owned homes for sale and realizing that when they find it and it is within their price range of under $250,000, they had better jump on it quickly. Many, if not most, of these homes are seeing multiple offers because of the lack of inventory of fairly priced non-distressed and non bank owned homes.

We are also seeing that the majority of these buyers are first time home buyers and are eligible for the $8000 First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit.

If you are a buyer - get your ducks in a row and be prepared to put your best foot forward on your offer.

Right now, the market has appeared to pick up in the lower price ranges. The first time buyers have been motivated by the Federal Housing $8,0000 Tax Credit.

What happens when that goes away? Is their motivation going to dissolve just as that tax credit will on November 30, 2009. Will things get WORSE? I have had clients who decided to buy this year, as apposed to in the future, just for the sake of that.

What do you think? Are we in for a cold winter? Or do you think that the first time buyers will continue with their enthusiasm, despite not receiving any tax credit?

Personally, I hope they continue to be motivated by the loan programs available to them.

So my question to you, is the expiration of this tax credit/ first time motivator going to negatively impact our course to a recovering real estate market?

This post will get personal, if you don't care... click back now :)

I am 19 years old, young, energetic, and full of fire and determination. I have been doing real estate since I was 18, just over a year and a half's time. My entire life I have wanted a career helping people.

Recently an opportunity to do that has created itself, but there is minimal guidance. There is no one telling me what to do, or even how to do it. I am on course to be an Emergency Medical Technician for Mason County Fire District 2, here in my hometown of Belfair. It has been quite the process. You start out as a volunteer firefighter, but I want more. I want to be able to help directly and provide medical services.

Today I signed up for my EMT class, paid and full, and I have not even secured a position in the department yet; However, I have faith that everything will fall into place, and that by the time this class starts in September, that the department will have me in business.

The point being this, I know what needs to be done, I know what classes I need to take, so I have taken it upon myself to venture on my own and do them.

Often in life, you have to be your biggest motivator. Being in real estate I am sure you are already self guided. I look forward to being an EMT, and actively working real estate. Our EMT schedule at Mason District 2 is 48 hours on shift, 96 off. For me personally, this is a perfect opportunity to have two solid careers.

If you have made it this far, I appreciate your reading.

So as I continue to learn, this techy stuff gets so intricate. As I am on the hunt to learn as much as I can about Search Engine Optimization, I am trying to dial in my behind the scenes details. What I want is simple.

When people search: Belfair Washington Real Estate or Belfair Washington Homes For Sale... I want them to be able to find me, Josh Murphy, some how some way.

WHAT is my best way to do this? Does adjusting meta-tags keywordshelp dial this seo?

Do you need to be careful when using the meta-tag? If you know what you are doing, help us out. Some of you guys know so much about this, and I know I ask a lot. But help us out.

What is your advice when using Meta- tags and related search engine facilitation.

What are YOU doing to get your results on the top?

If you have something great that you are doing, please do share. We would all love to hear about it.
