Wichita Falls Real Estate Update- October 31, 2011

Monday, October 31, 2011

Market Overview

We are seeing a challenging market in North Texas at this time. YTD our residential market sales are down approximately 20%. With a challenge, we also see opportunity. The current interest rates are still as low as we have ever seen them, which means the buyer today has more power than he ever has. Should one be looking to buy and hold, we see this as a great investment opportunity. All in all, this is a market we have described as a "Price War and Beauty Contest"....To hear a recording of my view on the market at this time, see www.TheFallsPodCast.com.

Good Monday morning to you!

What do interest rates and the Dallas Cowboys have in common? Predictability. You never know what they're going to do! We are seeing interest rates bounce between 3.75% and 4.75% on Conventional/FHA/VA 30 year fixed loans. And each day its a new story.

We've shown you this before, but check out my blog entry at www.ImAhappyBuyer.com. Rates are even better than when this blog was written, which means we even a better opportunity right now.
