Should you know your housing market? Short answer is YES!

Even if you are not in the market to buy or sell a home, you should at least investigate the real estate prices and values in your area. Information is a powerful tool. Do you own research or I would be glad to send you information on homes in Charlotte, NC. Why?

Today starts the last 60 days of the federal tax credit program. You may eligible to receive from the federal government $8,000 for a first time home buyer or $6,500 for a repeat home buyer. Prices are bouncing along the bottom in Charlotte, inventory remains high, sellers are contributing to closing costs but interest rates may be trending up. What about your area? Scroll down to my 2-18-2010 post for the Home buyer Tax Credit Timeline and it is clear time is running out!

Perhaps you or someone you know is considering moving to Charlotte, NC. If so, I will send you homes listed in the Charlotte area by location, your price range, and housing criteria i.e. number of bedrooms, garage, etc. Send me your search criteria and I will email you a selection of homes for you to evaluate the price, value, features, etc. If you want information in another part of the country or even in an international location, I can provide you with a real estate professional to contact.

You should be armed with information. We should all know the real estate market because if you are not interested in buying or selling now, you probably know someone that is. Please email this post to them. Social networking is about giving and not taking. I will provide you with information. Just ask.

If not now, When?
