Real Estate Professionals are in the stands. We see the whole market. Changes in property values, historically low interest rates and homes entering the market everyday. We also see how challenging it can be to get buyers qualified, properties to appraise and so on. Did you know that FHA is now charging higher mortages insurance premiums? This translates in a higher cost to the typical borrower. Additionally, the long term view is that interest rates will rise. Our clients are on the field trying to make their individual "play" whether it be buying or selling a home. They can't see the whole game. As professionals we receive a constant stream of information from local and national market experts, lenders, appraisers, customers and other agents. Our customers are counting on us to call i...

Here in Lake County Florida we did experience a modest gain in home prices especially in the more affordable segments. What's also interesting to note is that an increasing number of purchasers are deciding to act now even though they may not actually relocate for two or three years. Additionally, the interest in move-up and luxury homes has ticked up slightly according to several brokers and agents in our local market. Please share your insight on what is happening your your local market. I have attached a link from RIS Media a national source for real estate news that discusses trends in several market.  Good luck in your home buying or selling experience. http://rismedia.com/2010-03-31/home-prices-increase-slightly-in-january-2010/ Ray Levy Coldwell Banker Camelot Realty Mount Dora, ...

The Florida Realtors will be sponsoring a statewide open house April 10th and 11th.  There will be a great deal of advertising and press releases throughout the state of Florida. As the chairman for the local Realtor Awareness Committee here in Lake County I wanted to make sure all of our local Realtors are aware of the event. Excerpt from press release: The Florida Open House Weekend comes just before the April 30, 2010, deadline for the federal homebuyer tax credit. Homes need to be under contract by April 30, 2010, and closed by June 30, 2010, to take advantage of up to $8,000 in tax credits.   "This event offers people a convenient way to see as many homes as they wish in one weekend and gives our members a chance to be part of this massive effort to match buyers to their sellers Th...
