Aloha,
Spring doesn�t arrive until later this month. That�s when many folks start thinking about real estate in preparation for moves during the summer. But this year, you might want to consider jumping in early, before the crowd, since the conditions for a home sale or purchase are quite favorable.

The latest statistics released by the Honolulu Board of Realtors, show continuing positive trends�more home sales activity, stable prices and low housing inventory.

What does that mean to you?

If you put your home on the market, and you price it right, it could sell quickly. Many homes in most price ranges are attracting a lot of attention, crowded Open Houses, and multiple offers. This attractive climate may not last long as more people catch on to the trend and put their homes on the market. That typically happens every spring as things warm up.

If you�re in the market for a home, there are many reasons why diving in now could be a good decision. Interest rates remain quite low, and it�s not certain when they�ll move higher. Many homes are priced to sell. And, the Extended and Expanded Home Buyers Tax Credit could provide you with an extra dollar incentive, but you need to move quickly and be in escrow by April 30, 2010.

Maybe you should take the plunge and maybe you shouldn�t. But to know that, get some expert advice. Learn more about the market than what�s apparent on the surface.

I�m in the market every day, so I can provide you with a depth of information to align with your goals and your unique situation. With more information, you�ll make the decision that�s right for you. A quick call or email could help you enjoy a well executed and smooth dive. In the meantime, here is a highlight of real estate market statistics as of February 28, 2010.
