Hi All,
I can hardly believe we are only two weeks away from Christmas. It seems like 2009 just got started and here we are already!
Real estate continues to be a challenge here in Manatee County, FL. It's a little busy with showings but everyone is looking at everything before they buy (if they do buy!). There are some good deals out there to be found, but unfortunately, most of them are short sales and foreclosures, which are definitely a challenge to get closed. It takes the patience of a saint to accomplish this, but this seems to be the way real estate now is so we'd all better get used to it!
I think 2010 is going to have the most short sales we've ever seen before, so let's get prepared for another year of this. I've heard some rumors that some of the larger lenders are getting more streamlined with regard to processing short sales. I heard that Bank of America is going to have a website that can be referenced to get updates on progress. Since they are just the very worst to deal with, this is good news if it actually happens. I'll believe it when I see it.
Well, all for now. Have fun shopping and be good as Santa is watching!
