Well here we are in the fourth quarter of 2007 and if you watch the news everyday you see that the sky is falling in the real estate market. There is no doubt that times are difficult, but don't lose sight of the positive aspects of these market conditions. Here in the Orlando area there are tons of new construction inventory homes available. You can take it to the bank that the builders that are selling these properties do not want to carry them onto the books into 2008 unsold.
Already there are tons of financial incentives being offered by builders, from closing costs and Association dues paid to free upgrades and low interest mortgage offers. This is in addition to making dramatic cuts in sale prices. If you are in the market for a new construction home, keep your eyes peeled because the deals will be sweeter as we tick down to the end of the year.

For the first time in a long time, homes in the Metro Orlando area are inching their way back to affordability. With the abundance of inventory in both the resale and new construction sectors, buyers have choices that were not within reach just a couple of years ago. Some additional good news on the First Time Homebuyer Front is that Orange County has increased their maximum purchase price limit to $219,000 as of last month, and those that can qualify for their program can get up to $30,000 of assistance towards purchasing a home. This is a great time to explore all the opportunities available to help first time homebuyers get the jumpstart that they need to purchase their first home.

Lately there has been an assault on the Real Estate industry from all sides. Online home evaluators like Zillow.com claim that most of the services Realtors used to charge for can now be found free of charge on the internet. My question to all buyers and sellers out there is - what do you think? What is your current opinion of the real estate professionals in the industry and what experiences, good or bad, would lead you to choose or not choose to use a real estate professional for your future transactions?
