Is now the time to buy?

It sure is the time to refinance! But it's also a great time to buy! I found this excellent article on MSN.

Here are a couple of highlights.

• Great deals! Prices are down approximately 30%.
• Interest rates are around 4.3%. That speaks for itself!
• Mortgage interest is a tax write off.
• It's yours! Paint the walls purple, indulge in avocado shag carpet!
• You'll find a nicer place, for less money (It might not be quite as nice if you actually go with avocado).
• There are tons of places to choose from! You'll have a variety in any price range.

Are you convinced yet?!

If you're unsure where to begin or who to use as an agent or lender, we're more than happy to recommend our most excellent and noble clients. You will absolutely be taken care of here at GBT, where you can (let's say it together now!) Close with Confidence!

Have a lovely day!

10 Reasons to Buy a Home

I just found this great article from Realtor Magazine.

If you're on the fence about buying a home, this should convince you.

Let there be light!

I thought of such a good title for this post, but it's way too long. So I'll say it now. Ahem.

Light at the end of the tunnel or just a firefly?

Alright, it's not quite as spectacular as I thought it would be.

Anyway, to the meat and potatoes of the post, home sales have risen!

So the explanation of my mediocre title was longer than the actual post. At least I'm keeping you on your toes!

97 Year Old Wisdom

I found this article a couple of days ago and found it very interesting. This man is 97 years old and he's been in the real estate biz for 74 years. That's more years than my grandma is old! I hope that last sentence makes some sense. George W. Johnson, gives some great tips and advice on the real estate market.

The first, which I thought was kind of funny and I'll explain why in just a minute, is this awful, horrible, terrible market is just a "baby" compared to past days. Which reminds me of when my grandparents told me they had to walk to school, uphill both ways, barefoot, in the rain, snow, sleet, and drought (all at the same time, mind you). Really what he's saying is, it could be worse and it will get better again.

He talks about one-company towns, greed, timing, and not selling if you don't have to. It's definitely worth a look.

Have a good one!

Joseph!

Alright, I'll admit it, this post will have absolutely nothing to do with the title industry.

I just wanted to say that I went to PCT's performance of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat and it was awesome! I'm not an artsy person, but I really enjoyed this. The set was amazing (though I'm a little prejudice, because my dad was the one who designed and built it). The voices were lovely (again prejudice because my younger sisters are in the chorus). Costumes immaculate. And of course, Pharaoh was a hunk-a-hunk-a-burnin' love, besides him, the baker was my favorite (alright, so my dad can multitask in a production).

I highly recommend it! So there is my shout out which killed two birds with one stone. Shout out for my peepz and letting you all know that we're still alive and kicking.
