Spring Market Looks VERY Promising

admin — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 01:02:25 +0000

The Spring market is upon us. Professionals across the country are reporting that buyer activity is very strong. Purchasers are beginning to realize that this is one of the greatest times in American real estate to buy a home. There are basically four reasons for this:

1) They realize that it is the COST of the home that matters most, not the PRICE.
2) They realize that it is actually LESS EXPENSIVE to own than to rent in 98% of the country.
3) They realize that SHORT SALES are a real bargain.
4) EVERYONE is now saying it is time to buy.

The market is turning for the better. It may be time for you and your family to jump in.

What Does Warren Buffet Think About Buying A Home?

admin — Wed, 07 Mar 2012 11:40:11 +0000

Warren Buffet is seen by many as the greatest investor of our time. When he speaks, people listen. Like anyone else in his position of influence, he is criticized by some for using his bullhorn to promote his own business agendas at times. That makes it very interesting when we occasionally learn of how he privately advises those closest to him.

Such a situation occurred this week. Debbie Bosanek, Warren Buffet’s secretary of 37 years, recently purchased a second home in Surprise, Arizona.

In an article in the Omaha World Herald, Mrs. Bosanek discussed her reasons for purchasing a second home and the personal advice she received from Mr. Buffet.

“I just thought it was time to buy a home. Warren tells me that it will be the best opportunity in my lifetime. Mortgage rates are low and prices have dropped dramatically…I share Warren’s view about the future of America, and we believe that our country will do just fine. I’m happy to make this investment.”

The greatest investor of the last century privately has told the people closest to him that buying a home right now “will be the best opportunity in [their] lifetime”.

That’s good enough for us. How about you?

Home Buyers: NOW is the time!

The PRICE is the same as 2003 prices, but the COST is even less. According to the most recent S&P Case Shiller price index, residential real estate values have returned to 2003 PRICEs. That, in itself, says something. However, when you factor in mortgage rates, the case for buying a home today becomes even more compelling. In 2003, 30 year mortgage rates stood at 5.88%. Today, they are 4%. How does that impact the actual COST of a home? Well, on a home purchased for $250,000 you save $285.30 a month, that equals over $3400 a year, and over $100,000 over the life of a 30 year mortgage! You buy the home for the same PRICE, but the COST is over $100,000 less. So this is why so many financial advisers are saying that this may be one of the greatest times in history to purchase a home.

Mortgage rates at an all time low!
