In my 37 years in the real estate business, I have never seen such great opportunities to purchase a home or a business location. I had the opportunity to do several market studies this past week and was surprised to find out that you can purchase a brand new home in a very nice subdivision for less than $120 per heated square foot!! Just 12 months ago, the same home would be more like $150 per square foot.
No,it may not have all the bells and whistles that you would dream of, but it is a safe and comfortable place to live and raise your family. It is a shame that the news media is frightening so many people who could afford to own their own home for the first time ever and are choosing not to because they are afraid. If you have a stable income and are paying rent in excess of $700 per month, you can and should own your own home.
We live in a college town and only minutes from the beautiful Atlantic ocean. How smart would it be to buy a condo or small home for your college age student and later use it for a second home?
I am still learning how to operate my new blackberry cellphone. There is one thing that I am sure of positively! It is that someone in my “age bracket” can learn something new and really love it. My husband, Tommy, and I sit back and stare at each of our little screens while sitting together and having our morning cup of coffee.
