First-time buyers in Cardiff, Encinitas, Carsbad, Vista, and San Marcos — and everywhere else in San Diego County — are everywhere, coming out to take advantage of the market. Right now, for these buyers, there are properties at good prices (if they can move fast enough), low interest rates, and an $8000 first-time buyers tax credit waiting for them if they close their escrow before November 30, 2009.
But inventory is low in the price ranges often available to first-time buyers, and serious buyers must be pre-approved and ready to go when they see the property that they want. There are often multiple offers on these properties within the first few days on the market, and buyers must be ready to “step to the plate,” write their offer, and work with their lender to get their loan approved quickly.
Realtors, like Marilyn Dashe at Century 21 Sea Coast in Encinitas, need to be available nearly 24/7 to respond to the needs of these first-time buyers. These buyers are tech-savvy and part of the internet generation who want instant gratification. They are educated and they don’t want to wait for answers. They want realtors who can communicate with them through ongoing communication and text messaging.
First-time buyers in the North County of San Diego should take advante of this market ripe for them to buy something now. Call a realtor like Marilyn Dashe and get your search started.
