December 2008 Real Estate Market Statistics
The end of the year is breathing down our necks right now and the real estate market stats for December are already here as provided by our friends at John Burns Consulting. Yet again… a bit of the same ‘ol story… but this time there’s indications that housing is becoming more affordable in many parts of the U.S. There are still pockets of markets where housing prices are still relatively high… but I see this trend of affordability keeping on in 2009. Enjoy ☺ Trevor
Trevor Mauch The REI Brain dot Com http://www.thereibrain.com Affordability Is No Longer A Problem Falling home prices and low mortgage rates have created an environment where housing affordability is now better than average in most areas. All of the areas shown in blue on this map have better than average affordability, based on the historical ratio of housing costs / income since 1981. The Pacific Northwest, the Northeast and a few other areas still have affordability problems, but that is changing quickly as prices are tumbling in these areas as well.

Savvy Investors ONLY:
The REI Brain dot Com Readers Make More Money. Period.
There’s two types of real estate investors. Investors who work hard and hardly make any money (95% of “investors” fit this category)… mostly because they spend 95% of their time “learning” rather than “doing”. …And Investors who work smart and follow the “learn, implement, profit, learn more, implement more, profit more” mindset. Which group do you fall in? Sometimes the truth hurts. Do You Want To Make More Money In Real Estate? The key to making more in real estate is to learn what you need to learn RIGHT NOW to take the NEXT step… nothing more. Then implement that BEFORE you go out to learn ANYTHING ELSE.
