Springfield Missouri Real Estate News

Welcome to Greene and Christian County, Missouri!!

My real estate business has been sluggish the past few weeks. I read articles every day on how to cope in a slowing market. A few tips are: Reduce advertising spending, call past clients more frequently, get out in front of more people to meet the fewer buyers, and build a sphere of influence. Working on each of these goals on a daily basis may not seem successful, but it works. Here's a great article I received this week.

Alan Greenspan was in the news a few weeks ago saying the current economic downturn was "likely temporary." Greenspan also noted the worst of the housing market slump is likely past us.

During a Q&A session at the annual Charles Schwab Impact conference in Washington, DC Mr. Greenspan stated, "The economy is obviously going through a significant slowing period, which as best I can tell is more than Likely temporary. And while the housing market is not out of the woods yet, the current slump may not worsen."

Savvy investors will take this to mean that this could point to a good buying opportunity for homes right now!



Happy House Hunting!
