Welcome Back
February 6, 2009
Quite a few changes have taken place since I last posted. I have moved to the West Loop, or Sunset Circle as I like to call it. ( Give it a minute) Moved to a new Brokerage House, The Real Estate Group located in Lincoln Park next to Elbow Room. December concluded the best of my five years in Real Esate and I look forward to improving in 2009.
Moreover, we have seen drastic changes in our political leadership and the state of our economy. Over the coming weeks legislation will pass that will certainly impact the availability of credit for home purchases, include tax incentives for at least first time, possibly all home buyers, and lastly attempt to mitigate the foreclosure fiasco.
Plan to check back here as I will attempt to seperate the fluff from the meat of the legislation in an effort to explicate how the new laws will affect our locale real estate market and you personally as a buyer or seller.
Finally, Check out this blog if your interested in the latest news from the mortgage industry. It is written by a mortgage lender I work closely with and provides up to date and quality information. If you worked with me before you know the name well.
