Perfect Season

Have you noticed the beautiful fall days, with a hint of chill in the air in the morning, and warming to a comfortable temperature during the day? How about the deep blue skies and the clear rivers and streams? Even as the fall colors are beginning to dwindle, I marvel at what a perfect season fall is in Durango, Colorado.

It is also the perfect season for real estate. What makes a perfect season for real estate? The market must have adequate choices; just a few years ago, there was a low inventory, and few choices for buyers. Today, the number of homes available is great, and buyers have significant choices. Second, this is a great time for negotiation, as there is competition in many neighborhoods, and we are still in the fall selling season prior to winter. Third, if you have solid credit, an adequate down payment, and most important, a good credit score, money is available, and interest rates are low. The low cost of money, many great choices, and a strong negotiation position makes this the perfect season to buy!!

Last, this is the perfect season in our life! We are fortunate to live in a great country, with all of our freedoms, and to wake up each day to a bright and wonderful future. We need to be thankful for those serving in the armed forces that protect our freedoms, and be thankful for those in leadership of our nation, state, country, and city for their commitment to give of themselves to better our opportunities. Most importantly for those of us that call Durango home, we live in the best place in the country, and there are people all over this nation that wish they could be here.

This is truly a blessed season. Enjoy and make the most of it, and don't forget to vote.

I think we really have to become very optimistic despite of the real estate market condition that we have these days.
