Golden Age for NH first time home buyers…

Some positive real estate news for a change!

Don’t miss the golden age for first time home buyers. This is the best time to buy in 43 years! If you’re house hunting you should seriously think about stepping the process up a notch. You may not have heard much good news as far as real estate goes from much of the mainstream press but really this is a great time to buy … don’t just take my word for it. A recent NY Times article really said it all.

The article starts with these profound words..

Five or 10 years from now, when the financial crisis has ended and housing prices are up smartly once more, we will look in the rear view mirror and realize that we missed a golden age for first-time home buyers.

The article written by Ron Lieber can be read in its entirety in the NYTimes.com money section and is well worth reading.

In case you missed my recent podcast which was sort of a summary of the southern NH real estate market and my outlook for 2009. You can listen to it by clicking on the player at the bottom of this post.

Remember..

This is the best time to buy in 43 years!!!  How can you beat this… Interest rates are at historic levels, housing pricing is extremely desirable, inventory is plentiful and the average homeowner’s net worth is 46 times the net worth of the average renter. Why would you want to rent when you could own?

Call us if you’re thinking of buying and want someone who can guide you through the process…it would be our honor.
