And I owe it all to Facebook, and my friend Stew!
Awww, kind of sad....

TIME TO BUY AND SELL
I found this in a recent article of a blog we agents really like....
Today, we want to take a closer look at one of the sources, the JP Morgan’s Market Insights report. Right from the beginning, the paper identifies the greatest challenge in today’s housing market: consumer emotion. They attempt to overcome that emotion with logical reasons why now is the time to buy a home. They break it down to the following.
Today, we want to take a closer look at one of the sources, the JP Morgan’s Market Insights report. Right from the beginning, the paper identifies the greatest challenge in today’s housing market: consumer emotion. They attempt to overcome that emotion with logical reasons why now is the time to buy a home. They break it down to the following.
Price-to-Income Ratio
One measure of housing values is the ratio of personal income to home prices. The report explains where we are today:“Since 1966, the median price of an existing single family home in the U.S. has varied between 150% and 251% of personal income per household. However, roughly three-quarters of the time it has been in a relatively narrow band between 185% and 230%. In September 2011, the ratio was just 153%, implying that to get back to an average price to income ratio, home prices would have to rise by about 27%.”
Current Mortgage Interest Rates
With current 30 year mortgage rates, housing payments are at historic lows as compared to personal income.“During the week of October 7, Freddie Mac reported that mortgage rates had fallen to an average annual level of 3.94%. Assuming the use of a fixed rate mortgage with 20% down, this would make the median mortgage payment on a single family existing home just 6.9% of per household personal income, compared with an average of 14.4% since 1966.”
Monthly Rent vs. Monthly Mortgage Payment
Is it less expensive to own a home or rent a home? The answer to this question helps families make the decision whether or not to buy a home. The report explains:“By the third quarter of this year, we estimate that the implied median mortgage payment had fallen to just 78% of the median asking rent…”
Bottom Line
The paper comes to the conclusion that now is the time to buy.“The numbers on housing have an important message for American families today, and particularly younger families setting out on life’s great adventure: Five years ago, at the peak of the home-buying euphoria, it was emphatically a time to rent. Today, when home ownership is depreciated more than ever before, the numbers tell us it is a time to buy.”

1514 Pickering - UNDER CONTRACT
$125,000 - 1514 Pickering Drive - Pleasantree Subd. 2bd/2ba
This is such a special house to me. It was my late Grandmothers home and a lot of time was spent making memories, not only at this house, but this neighborhood. I can't speak highly enough of Pleasantree Subd. I'm glad it sold so fast, but it's bitter sweet. My hopes are for the next owner to enjoy it as much.
