With today’s market conditions and the constant media headlines, my role has officially transcended from that of a sales associate to a Real Estate advisers.
People have financial advisers. They have career advisers. And now more than ever, they need Real Estate advisers.
With the collective experience and expertise I have here at Long & Foster, it is my responsibility to identify real estate opportunities for my clients. Potential buyers and sellers are bombarded every day with headlines and reports that would make even the most confident consumer take pause. This is where being the best-trained, best-equipped Real Estate professionals comes into play. I can step in and help consumers cut through the fog and see a clearer picture of what opportunities might exist for them.
We’ve seen a lot of headlines in the last week or so that don’t tell the full picture of our local Real Estate market. So allow me to cut through the fog a bit, and present a side of the story that we won’t always see in mainstream media reports.
Further, I'll assert once again that we were expecting this pull-forward effect as a result of the tax credits. Keep in mind that when the media reports existing home sales figures from the National Association of Realtors, these are closed transactions. The lagging July data we just absorbed is a reflection of contracts that were signed in May and June, right after the expiration of the tax credit, and just made it to the settlement table.
Our area is so different that the rest of the country. Our job market is great.
