DID I MESS UP BY MISSING THE OBAMA TAX CREDIT? NO!

Posted by Bryan Guentner on Friday, September 3rd, 2010 at 2:54pm.

At the end of April (when the tax credit expired) the interest rate was hovering around 6% versus about 4.25% now.  That means that if you took out a loan for $320,000, in April your loan would be $320,000 @ 6% = $1918 versus now $320,000 @ 4.25% = $1918, for a difference of $344 every month.  Over 30 years, that difference is a whopping $123,840!

Despite what you read and see, homes ARE selling.  Our team has been having a stellar year selling lots of homes for our sellers and finding quality homes at good prices for our buyers.  We have become experts at distressed sales (short sales) and are CDPE certified, and we are even listing and selling some bank owned homes (REOs). 

We are well aware that you have a choice in Realtors.  We feel that now more than ever experience counts.  Don't forget to contact Re/Max Platinum Realty at 941-929-9090 for your needs in Sarasota real estate, as well as your needs for Siesta Key real estate and Casey Key real estate.
