Right now we are in a Different time…right? And like any rough time in our economy, being positive and truthful is necessary. Most of what you are hearing and seeing is negative and down right depressing. But I have to say, if you’ve been reading my weekly emails [ come on, I know you have =) ], you will have noticed that there are a lot of positive things happening not only at Silverstar but in the real estate market as well.
When was the last time that you could buy a home in Southern California at such a discount? And when was the last time you could buy cash flowing investment real estate? And think of how much lower your property taxes will be or could be? Like I said, Better is Always Different.
Well Guess What??? The time is now, even Alan Greenspan agrees.
Alan Greenspan told the Wall Street Journal last week that we are witnessing a 100-year event. That could possibly mean that in his opinion our housing crisis surpasses that of the great depression of the 1930s. (Different)
“The truth is, this problem will not be fixed from the top down. It will only be fixed from the bottom up. Courageous positive individuals need to take action now to clear excessive inventory (one house at a time) before pricing will normalize.” (Better)
Even though the government is trying to implement new policy to help homeowners survive, the market turn around will ultimately come from homes being bought by people who are qualified to buy their first home and investors who are purchasing rental properties. Everyone needs a roof over their head so don’t think that real estate is a bad investment or it’s a bad time to buy.
True, this is a different (better) time to buy that and requires different strategies and qualifications. I know what it takes to buy a foreclosure or an auction property based on experience, not based on what someone else is saying. I also know the importance of financial security and how to help you develop a road map to manage your debt and cash flow. We have been helping our clients for years develop their blue print. Change is good, working with someone who changes is even better.
How Silverstar is Different
Our next class on How to Buy Real Estate in Today’s Volatile Market is gong to be on Saturday, Sept.13th at 10am. Please make sure you mark it on your calendar and invite everyone you know especially those who have been talking over the past few years about how they missed their opportunity in the last appreciation boom. You can RSVP on our website or simply email me back. SilverstarFinance.com/events
And to get a jump start on great real estate info before our Sept.13th class, I would highly recommend attending How I Survived Real Estate 2008. This event is being held on Saturday, Aug. 23rd at the Nixon Library. I have attached a flyer with more info. Not only will you get a fabulous dinner but the speakers of the event are cream of the crop in the real estate industry and will give us great insight on the Southern California real estate market and what to expect for the next couple of years. These people are my mentors. You can also simply donate if you are not interested in attending. All proceeds are 100% gifted to the Susan Komen Foundation. You can reserve your seat or donate at this website: http://tinyurl.com/6l7faf . I would ask you to please let me know if you do, so that I can make sure you are on the list to attend. Silverstar has reserved a table right up front and there are 5 seats left. After we fill these seats, general seating is available.
So please take advantage of the knowledge and information that is being offered whether you attend one of Silverstar’s classes, an outside event or you schedule a debt strategies consultation with me. If you don’t, will you look back with hindsight and be mad that you didn’t?
The cost is minimal and the returns are infinite!
