What’s really happening in Real Estate Market

There is a lot of information in the media that may be misleading about what the market is really doing. Ever notice that BAD news seems to be front page and good news just gets an article on the middle /back pages. HEADLINES are grabbers and by their nature seem to spell doom and gloom.
Are there homes that are selling? Yes in every price range we continue to see homes sell.
Is this the right time to sell my home? Well that would depend on why you are thinking of selling. If it’s important that you move elsewhere , then it would be a good time to sell because that’s what you want/need to do.
Should I wait and get more money for my house? There are no guarantees that your homes price will go up in the near future, so if you want to move then move now. Remember that market prices elsewhere have fallen as well and so it’s relevant to the change. You may be selling for less today than you could’ve sold for a year or so ago. But you will be paying less for the home you plan to buy than you would’ve a year ago.
The rule of thumb is everything will sell if the price is right for the market. Many homeowners are focusing on what they missed by not selling a year or so ago.
Instead — consider what you bought your home for. Many homeowners are still able to reap a large profit on their home. IE: if you paid $100,000 it’s probably worth at least $200,000. That’s a darn good appreciation on your property.
Bottom line is meet with a good REALTOR who give you the honest truth about your homes value and likelyhood to sell. Get the true market price evaluation and listen to what the REALTOR says. Be cautious of an agent that tells you the price you want to hear , they may be looking to place a sign in your yard even knowing it won’t sell for that price range. They’ll hope to get a call from the sign and when the buyers shys away because of the price– they’ll say “But I’ve have others” . Your home may just be a place for that agent to hang a “billboard” that really advertises for them not you.
It is NOT a bad market, it’s actually a standard market. It just feels slow compared to the recent frenzy. Pricing right and making your home show it’s best will get it sold.

Help, I need a Doctor

CityBlogAZ — Mon, 28 May 2007 08:15:30 +0000

Lake Havasu City, Arizona has a hospital. Lake Havasu City has many medical professionals operating in a variety of specialties. Fundamental healthcare begins with an individual or family?s access to a general physician, call it a family doctor or for children, a Pediatrician and for women a Gynecologist. Certainly, for people like me, a good therapist; better yet, a Psychiatrist! But why is it that someone in Lake Havasu City, Arizona cannot locate a physician that will take new patients?
CityBlog Lake Havasu City, was struck by the frustration that was apparent in Susie Pena’s (a Lake Havasu City, Arizona resident) post on May 9, 2007, which read as follows:
I have been here 1 year this June and have yet to find a doctor that will accept new patients. I am very discouraged that there is no avenue for new residents to find out who is available without a lot of labor intensive efforts.
Does Lake Havasu City have a physician association or, does the hospital know of new physicians coming into Lake Havasu City that are looking for new patients? It would behoove all communities to have some centralized service that maintains a list of physicians who can accept patients as either â€œnewâ€ or on a rotating basis until the new resident can establish regular healthcare.
