Although many people are losing their homes due to foreclosure and having to sell under short sale programs, this has created great opportunities for people who missed the chance to buy before the last run up of prices. Homes in the Las Vegas area are down almost 55% from 4 years ago.  Match that with the lowest interest rate in years and you can see why now would be a great time to buy.

In many cases I tell potential buyers who can buy now but want to wait for several reasons, that they need to consider their quality of life. Having one’s own place and having the comfort of knowing that when you return home from work you have accomplished the goal of  “The American Dream”…home ownership!  To be able to sit out in your own back yard and relax in a safe enviornment is a great feeling.  Now is the time to take advantage of the market.
