The Phone is Ringing



Recently I wrote about "The January Effect" where I described the historic trend in our Real Estate market place where sales activity increased after the new year started. This has been vividly demonstrated to me this week with a ringing phone from buyers calling on our listings and happily, an offer that was negotiated to a contract on one of them.
It is good to set aside all of the doom and gloom for a while and just do our work. In my business, there are people out there who recognise the opportunities in our market place (lowered prices and historic low interest rates) and are acting on it. Things will be better in the months to come.

Tucson is a great place to live. Lots of people know this. I received an e-mail from a friend in Indiana this morning and he said that it was minus 35F there today! I am taking our sunshine dividend to the bank, knowing that Tucson will continue to grow, probably at a faster pace than some other parts of the country, and our real estate market will recover. And the weather is better here. That's one of the blessings that should be on our counting list.
