Buyers Market

October 16, 2007

Mathematically speaking, you should "upgrade" during a buyers market.  Why?  Here are the numbers:  Homes are listed at a realistic value of $100,000 and $180,000.  The one you are selling is $100,000 and the one you want to buy is $180,000.  If the homes are being sold for 10% below value, then your home will potentially sell for  $90,000.  This is a $10,000 loss.  However, the home you want to buy will now potentially sell for $162,000.  This is a $18,000 savings.  Hence, you have gained $8,000 in this transaction.

 Call me and let's discuss your current situation!
