I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season filled with joy and good health.
As 2008 comes to an end I am reflecting on the years events. It has been a year full of ups and downs for many. I want to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who allowed me the pleasure of working with them this year and to all those who sent me the referrals of these wonderful people. Your continued loyalty and support mean the world to me.
As we embark on 2009 I see a year of positive growth, change and movement in the real estate market here in Tucson. Prices and interest rates are at an all time low (no kidding!) now and that will not last forever. As your trusted advisor, I'm committed to doing whatever I can to help you understand what the current economic situation means for you and your family going forward in 2009. I look forward to helping you or your friends and family with all your real estate needs. Give me a call if you want to discuss strategies for strengthening your financial future in the weeks and months to come. I look forward to hearing from you. Let’s make 2009 great.
Happy New Year!

Mortgage Market Changes
There have been some important current mortgage market changes. The move in the past week by the Federal government has caused a very significant drop in mortgage rates. This is great news and we need to take advantage of the steep drop in rates quickly, this is a real opportunity.
Most of the time when things go on sale people get excited. Well…houses are on sale and we should all be excited! It took the government one full year to declare that we are in a recession that started December of 2007. Don’t wait another year to learn that we started coming out of it in December of 2008. By that time prices will have gone up. If you receive my newsletter you know that Tucson has been on a trend of stabilization. Rather than being fearful, take action and keep our market moving in a positive direction. It is always better to be proactive than reactive and then finding yourself saying “I wish I had done something then.”
A lender told me yesterday he was able to lock a 30 year fixed rate for a client at 5.25%! We do not know how long this will last but today opportunity is knocking. There has been no better time to borrow money and buy a house on sale!
Let’s keep Tucson moving.
