Dear Robert,

We know that the national news about Real Estate values is depressing, but not so in San Antonio.  In most neighborhoods, our values have held steady while prices in other cities have declined.  As a FREE service to our many clients and friends, here is the most recent information on home listings, home sales, and market trends in your neighborhood.  Data includes ALL homes similar to yours within about a mile of your home. 

By necessity, this information is fairly generic.  We will be happy to consult with you individually about your home value and give you a professional Comparative Market Analysis, whether for contesting Tax Appraisal, Refinancing or if you are considering putting it on the market. There is no charge for this service.

If you are thinking about putting your home on the market, ask us for our FREE booklet, "97 Easy Ways to Make Your Home Sell Faster".  Here are the three BIG current opportunities in this market:

1.  First-Time Home Buyers (defined as anyone who has not owned a home for the last three years) can receive an $8,000 TAX CREDIT from Uncle Sam.  That's tax-free cash, and that's what is propelling the lower end of the market.  It expires December 1, so if you know anyone who might be eligible, please call us.

2.  Move-Up Buyers are realizing that this is the best opportunity in a lifetime to get into their dream house (or at least closer to it).  While you may not get all the value you wanted for your current home, the discounted price on the larger home, where prices are softer,  is much less than you may have thought.  So, the difference between the two is much smaller than ever before, and rates are still at historic lows.

3.  Investment properties abound - San Antonio has not escaped the foreclosure mess, and that means that investors can buy great homes for rental properties and CASH FLOW immediately.  Rentals are strong, because fewer people can qualify to buy than in the past.  We offer in-house Property Management services, so there is no hassle to you.

We are here to help you to take advantage of the current opportunities.  Give us a call, and let's talk about what is possible for you.  Of course, all such discussions are strictly confidential.

Best regards,
