Experts now say that the national housing market will start to make a serious recovery at end of 2008. That is not good news if your business is tied to real estate sales.
Phoenix, Las Vegas, south florida and the Central Valley in California will fall behind in the recovery. Phoenix has 55,000 listings, the highest ever.
What I am reading tells me that there is still plenty of time to shake out good deals for houses IF you can get a mortgage.
I am also seeing many homes being taken off the market. The owners just don't want to put up with selling their homes over the Christmas season. Look for a ton of listings in Spring 08 but maybe even fewer sales compared to Spring 07.
If you don't have to move, DON'T!

Adventures in Coastal California
My wife and I moved to Paso Robles, California recently. The sticker shock for the cost of houses is still a reality despite the downturn.
We bought a beautiful home in a newer subdivision for $560,000. The house was listed last year for $660,000. I felt that the price we bought it for was a bargain even though it may still drop some in 2008.
Paso Robles is midway between San Francisco and LA. We visited relatives in LA last weekend The drive took 3 hours each way.

Real Estate rebates will dominate soon
In my mind there is not much doubt about it.
With the internet came change. BIG change. The real estate industry is not immune to evolution.
My good friend, Bill Brynelsen in Spring Grove, Illinois, was the subject of attacks from traditional real estate agents for the past two years. They would not show his listings. They made threatening phone calls.
But Bill persevered. I encouraged Bill to continue when he felt beleagured and tired. I knew that one day word-of-mouth would put him in the driver's seat.
That day has come.
Bill is so busy selling houses and paying rebates to the buyers that he needed to put on help.
