Real Estate Showing Signs of Life

Wednesday, August 5th, 2009

Pretty much whenever I go for a coffee, I have a conversation with folks and inevitably we talk about Real Estate.  “How’s the market?” to which I always reply “It depends” Fortunately Raleigh, Cary and the Triangle area have not sufffered as dearly as other parts of the country. With a large number of properties on the market it will feel like a lifetime before things improve.

As the old saying goes “One man poison is another one’s punch” To that end short sales, foreclosures have helped some get into the market where at another time they have not had the luxury.

The good news is we are seeing a positive change in the Raleigh, Wake Forest and Rolesville market. One could opine that it is the historically low interest rates, the first time home-buyer credit for $8000 or perhaps sellers are finally lowering prices. Buyers are coming into the market we are moving inventory.

In the end the meeting of the minds, or a reasonable Buyer and Seller negotiation with a great agent will get the job done.

A little note about “Sentiment”

Monday, May 4th, 2009

On many occasions as a Realtor you find yourself in interesting conversations about the current economy, the pitfalls, doom and gloom and yes “Is it a good time to buy” ? Now I’ll be completely honest with you, I don’t know if home prices in general will continue to fall or rise but I am certain we are seeing some stability.

The great news is we are seeing sentiment improving.  I say sentiment because every individual, couple and families have a different set of circumstances. We all share the national story of a slowing economy a housing correction, and for the past 12 months or more we have been inundated with doom and gloom.

Yes sentiment is changing for the better in Raleigh, Cary, and Wake Forest. I’m witnessing it first hand as people have expressed to me more recently that they are changing their own perspectives and searching for the positive in their circumstances. Some of these folks have been laid off, looking for employment and face many uncertainties.

I don’t want to generalize, however it’s hard not too.  Input effects output plain and simple. Hats off to all of the folks across this great country who recognise the sun will rise and set …………….for the rest change the channel

Cheers

Rex opens Wakefield facilities

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

At long last the long awaited Rex Healthcare Wakefield Campus has opened in North Raleigh, near Capital Blvd at the intersection of South Main and Wakefield Drive.  

The new facility provides cancer treatment, outpatient surgery, urgent care, wellness services , a sleep lab and doctor’s offices. 

The overall trend of large hospitals opening satellite operations should boost the already popular residential developments of Heritage Wake Forest, Wakefield and the more northern Wake, Franklin and Granville counties.
