My Opinion On Our Real Estate Market
Hi, I’m Dennis Draper. For decades I’ve been in real estate sales and marketing. I’ve seen it all, at least I thought so until we had an inland hurricane here at the end of September. That caused our local real estate market to take a bit of a pause, which is still affecting us. The market is on the way back though.
A few of years ago we had a “Frenzied Real Estate Market” with ultra-low interest rates and buyers aggressively bidding prices up against each other.
Then interest rates went back up, overshooting a level that was comfortable for buyers. That caused the market to stall for a bit. Interest rates right now have settled back down and are more in line with long-term reality.
What’s next? I dropped and shattered my Christal Ball. I have no idea. We’ll have to wait and see what comes out of Washington D.C. and filters down to Western North Carolina.
What I do know after having done well in every ultra-low down market and every ultra-high up market since the early 80’s is that the real estate market will survive and ultimately thrive.
If you’re considering selling your home or looking for a home to purchase, I would be honored to put my real estate experience, expertise, and local knowledge to work for you!
