Joe Manausa presents What Everybody Ought To Know About The Average Home posted at Tallahassee Real Estate Blog, saying, “What has happened to the 3000 square foot house? This article was inspired by a question that I had received from a relocation company that wanted some background information about the Tallahassee real estate market and felt that a good litmus test would be to see some history of home pricing for 3000 square foot homes.”

Joe Manausa presents Home Inventory Levels Falling In Tallahassee posted at Tallahassee Real Estate Blog, saying, “The good news is that we are still seeing home inventory levels drop in Tallahassee. The 30-day trend (average number of homes each day leaving the Tallahassee real estate market over the past 30 days) and our 270-day trend (average number of homes each day leaving the Tallahassee real estate market over the past 270 days) are both multiple homes per day.”

Other Information

Bob Schwartz presents Real Estate Investing or Stock Market Investing – Have A Plan posted at San Diego real estate, saying, “Whether investing in real estate or the stock market, one should not ignore losses because of an irrational belief in the mantra “I’m investing for the long term.”

Smart investors always set stop loss points to limit their downside risk. Yet, many neophyte investors, believing the majority of ‘feel good’ financial commentators, convince themselves that huge declines are past history and unlikely to occur during their investment term.”

Raymond presents Credit Card Offers For People With Bad Credit Or Poor Credit History posted at Money Blue Book, saying, “Easiest way for poor credit history people to build their credit and someday qualify for better mortgage loans”

Joe Manausa presents Understanding Your Real Estate Window Of Opportunity posted at Tallahassee Real Estate Blog, saying, “Too often, people fail to use all of the information at their disposal when making a home-selling decision. Talk to any real estate professional who has visited with a potential home seller in the past few weeks and they will tell you that we are still hearing people say “I’ll start it at this price and lower it if I do not get any offers.” In today’s real estate market, that thinking will lose them money.”

Real Estate Market Report

Joe Manausa presents Understanding Real Estate Sales Reports posted at Tallahassee Real Estate Blog, saying, “A real understanding our source data is so important when reading real estate reports. Most real estate reports are based upon information from the local, regional, or national MLS, but unfortunately the MLS only represents 50-65% of what is actually selling in the market.”

Troy Trumm presents Omaha Real Estate Market – November, 2008 posted at Omaha Real Estate, saying, “Statistics of the number of homes for sale and the number of homes sold in Omaha, NE during of November, 2008.”

I’m new to activerain and the world of blogging. This “carnival” sounds intriguing. I’d like to know more about it. How its done, what I need to do, etc. I am a loan officer that has a program that allows people selling their home to offer “owner/seller financing” My company comes in behind the sale and buys the note from the seller after the sale. I think that this is going to be the way most homes are financed for awhile. The company goes down to a 580 FICO . Thanks for the post.
