Housing Numbers Looking Up....

For the past four months the number of residential real estate transactions have been up! Great news for sellers and buyers alike. Still looks to be a great market for first time home buyers with the average price during this period around 130K. Not an indication of falling home prices but of entry-level buyers finally putting their heads around the low interest rates, $8000 tax credit, tons of homes to choose from and the "traditional" Spring market (though maybe a little later than usual.)

Other bonuses added by companies like Allen Tate that are sweetening the deal are Job Loss Protection, one year home warranties, rate buy down, etc.

This being said, the Winston-Salem Association of Realtor's press release on May 26th, indicated that these numbers are a sign that we are "getting back to more normal home buying patterns in our community." Sounds great!

What this means for you, whether looking to buy or sell OR if you know someone who does....is that they need an experienced, full-time agent who understands the opportunity and is willing to commit the time needed to appropriately serve their needs--guess who you could recommend? Yep, you got it! Brooke Cashion and Associates...www.BrookeCashion.com
