It seems lately, no matter where I am the discussion of "hows the market?" "Are you hanging in there?" "What do you see the market doing" comes up.
To put it in a nutshell, I am thankful that I live in Athens, Georgia. With UGA we seem somewhat insulated as to what is happening in other parts of the country. Yes, the market is off, yes agents are dropping out of the business. But I've been helping you folks for 20 years and I'm not going any where! It is times like this that buyers and sellers need an experienced agent.
For instance, last month our office was involved in 25% of all real estate transactions in our Athens MLS. That is pretty strong, considering that we have 23 agents, and there are 750 agents in our Board of Realtors. So I guess the bottom line is, things are selling. Don't listen to the media and use an agent with experience!
