We are very quiet, with buyers sitting on the sidelines "waiting."
Democratic National Convention is set to be conducted in Denver next November, that may affect activity one way or the other.

Should have added that a 16yo girl was killed in a tragedy at our local high school last year (nutcase took schoolgirls hostage & shot hostage at the end of the siege) and that has affected the market too.

The market is good, but there's a lot of junk inventory out there (sellers apparently got lazy).

Business Conditions are actually looking better.

You can still buy homes here in Az for 20-50,000 below asking price.

My last deal the buyer's paid $41,000 LESS than the home was originally priced.

In my opinion, the only thing that is not working in our market is sellers who don't believe their property is over-priced. Buyers are looking and not making offers. many complain about the inventory being in bad shape. Which is back to the first point.

Robins AFB, Georgia (Warner Robins) near Macon and 100 miles south of
Atlanta. The market here is holding fairly well but off some from last year and some are requiring more price reductions and creative marketing.
We are also seeing a lot of bulder incentives this year!

Has anyone on here thought about creating a referral connection with each other? I ask since some people do not want to work through a RELO.
Just curious?

Michelle, that sounds like a great idea! We also do a lot of military relocation since I am located at Robins AFB, Ga. I have just had sellers move your way and we just put theirs under contract last week here.
I also work with both buyers and sellers and we are fortunate our market is
fairly stable but with new construction lots of builder's incentives now!

Hello!
I am a Century 21 Affiliated agent working around Lake Geneva Wisconsin.
Our market is moving slow as buyers confidence is being undermined by the national media. Too many negative stories create a false impression. Our numbers are not as bad as some of your markets. Time will tell if the 1/2 point cut does anything to consumer confidence here and elsewhere.
