NY Times reporter, David Leonhardt, shares some interesting insight on the connection (or disconnect) between Mortgage Rates and Home Prices.
... It’s not easy to see much of a relationship. ... My best guess for why the two don’t correlate more closely is the role that psychology plays in housing markets. Prices just don’t move as quickly as economic theory suggests they should.Not really, David.
The market, for all it's recent folly, is a generally rational experience. And buyers, for all the talk of the "emotional purchase", make rational distinctions. For instance: The price is how much I pay for a house. The interest rate is how much I pay for financing.
In today's REO (bank owned) driven market -- many buyers pay cash. …

The most successful people are those who are good at Plan B."
Statistics show just 1 in 5 sellers who list their Atlanta home for sale today will successfully sell within a normal 90 day market timeframe.
I'm not foolin'… the facts are 1 in 5.
So what happens if you're one of the 4 who can't sell?
Well ... you go to "Plan B".
Here's a quick list of options for sellers who simply can't stand having their home on the market for another day, henceforth known as "Plan B". I will touch on them here and provide detailed explanation of each option in subsequent posts.

Insider Tips to Buying Your First Home

I recently purchased my first home. I thought I'd share my experience and, hopefully, offer a little perspective, advice and a couple key lessons I've learned as an "insider". The process was quick and easy for me. I found my 15 favorite homes online. We (my buyer's agent and I) took 2 days to look at them all. Out of that 15 I picked my favorite 5, saw them once more and then wrote a contract the next week. Why do I share this? Because I want you to know how convenient buying a home can be when you have the right agent, or in our case, the right team on your side.

Buying a home should be a fun and exciting process. Don't let anxiety and fear rule…

Back with today's episode of IntownDailyHomes.com - your source for daily atlanta real estate information with expert intrepretation
We've got a lot of properties to review today - 16 to be exact. The first one is in Midtown, originally sold back in 1999 for $600,000. We've got one on Mclendon Avenue in Lake Claire on the market at $699,900 with a beautiful backyard. Another, newly built home, in Laurel Hill Preserve on the market at $600,000. Moving on we've got Glen Circle in Glenwood Estates - a 3/2 being offered at $554,000.

This is my first blog post. And it's the first of many where I'll give you a "behind the scenes" look at the fascinating world of Atlanta Real Estate from a unique (if somewhat cynical) perspective - mine! I plan to cover a range a topics - some serious ... some not so serious ... all brilliant. And I'm looking forward to maybe getting to hang out with you in the online world of bloggery and prodigiousness. Or maybe we’ll get to meet “in real life”, as the kids say, if you do business with my two brothers. Or on Twitter (still trying to figure that place out) @adamkeenrsb — stop by, whenever.
