I have seen the ups and downs in real estate in the north Dallas area. Today people are thinking that they should not buy because of the economy or some think that they should be able to actually be able to find a steal in this market. Both of these answers could be right or they could be wrong. First, the Dallas area has not experienced the vast number of foreclosures that are in other markets. Yes, we do have them and yes you may find a great deal but the number to choose from won't be as many as if you were in California or Nevada. Regular home owner listings have not seen a major price decrease so those homes will not be something considered a steal. Yes, there are motivated sellers out there that are willing to negotiate to a point. It is a buyers market. <br><br>Next, about the economy. Texas in general has missed out on much of what is happening in the rest of the country. Between November 2007 and November 2008 there were over 200,000 jobs created in our state. The rest of the nation 2 million jobs were lost. So when you are thinking of buying a home make sure you research all the facts and not rely on what you may hear in the media. It is a great time to buy a home, because our prices for homes are affordable and mortgage rates have never been better. The realtor community is here to serve you, so please ask questions of us regarding homes, the economy or anything that will assist you in making a decision. We are here to serve. <br><br>Roxanne DeBerry<br>Keller Williams Realty-Plano<br>Cell: 214-676-8040<br>email: <a href="mailto:roxanne@thedeberryteam.com">roxanne@thedeberryteam.com</a>]]></description><pubDate><![CDATA[Sat, 31 Jan 2009 14:06:45 PST]]></pubDate><author><![CDATA[Roxanne Deberry]]></author></item></channel></rss>
