The winners in this housing market

Investors, capitalist, call them what you like but in bad times their opportunist at best.

The age old sayings always buy on bad news and sell on the good news just make sure the bad news isn’t all that bad.

In our quaint little county of St. Clair our falling housing prices aren’t a reflection of over building, speculation and a demand, driven hyper housing bubble, our housing troubles are JOB related period… However, our values have fallen like it’s both.

The other old saying is it doesn’t matter how cheap a home is or how low the interest are, if a home buyer is worried about their job they are not buying anything.

Back to the investor, capitalist, they act on the value not the emotion they buy up the bottoms of the market sit, rent, them and wait out the emotional sky is falling consumers when they regain confidence, “they always do” The investor/capitalist sells on the good news, re-price the homes to suit there investment needs, in other words cash out to the new confident consumer, and wait again for the cycle of fear to begin again in something else.

Buyers buy the dip! Get capitalist/investor minded there are great buying opportunities out there with great rates and loan programs that even cover job loss. Sitting on the fence will only cost you more in interest and price and yes the fable “I should haves” because you acted on fear, the emotion that drives you either to or away from something, call Real Estate Masters today 810-987-8600.
