  • The way the foreclosure

    The way the foreclosure process works is regulated on a local level and it is not the same in every state. Be sure to ask this question of a real state pro in your state.

    Bernice - I don't know anyone who is having a hard time in our current market. Every agent I talk too says that business is wonderful. They do mention that some are having a hard time but I can't find anyone like that.

    I get what you are saying. Here in Minnesota the demographics work a little differently so we will not have that crop of gen Y, the move up buyers. We will see some sales from pent up demand. Our volume may remain flat or go down. We also have some unknowns. Up to now our unemployment rate has been among the lowest in the country and we have the highest rate of work force participation in the country. Our unemployment rate just went up to 6% which is very high for our state. Some major local companies say they will have layoffs. Even though our economy is diverse it will take awhile to recover. I am thinking late 2009 or first half of 2010 and most would say my view is optimistic. Real estate is just so darn local!
