A Little Summer Fun!

Kathy Riggs May 31st, 2009

Welcome back to my blog about news affecting Kinston real estate. We have taken a long journey with the buyer from getting pre-approved to getting to the closing table. And last week, we took a break to remember Memorial Day.
Without all of our veterans, the American dream of homeownership would never be a reality.
Now that Memorial Day weekend has passed, the economic season of summer is in full swing. Although it is three weeks until summer is officially here, the warm days, the traffic headed to the coast and the bright colors in all the stores say summer is here!
Summertime is calling me…this week it has called me to Emerald Isle, where I’m taking a break from the office. But technology allows me to work from anywhere. That’s one of the great things about real estate. You can take your work with you!
So if you are traveling along through my blog, we are just about ready to begin the seller’s journey. Regardless of what the news media is saying…this is a great time to sell a house. First time buyers can take advantage of the $8,000 tax credit and interest rates are low. Buyers have every reason to be looking. If you have been thinking of selling, why are you waiting?
The first thing you should do before selling a house is to get yourself mentally prepared. When your house goes on the market, it is no longer a “home”, it is a product and it has to compete. Think about that one ahile, and we’ll start focusing on making that product the best on the market…Meanwhile, I have some serious R&R to complete…the next post, we’ll be back to business.
