The New Buzz Word
By Cheryl Goff
I’ve got a favorite new word in my vocabulary – BUSY. I have been very busy showing homes and condos in Vero Beach Florida. In the last month, I have showed an average of six to eight buyers a week with the average buyer seeing eight to ten properties. That equates to around 250 properties a month. WOW, no wonder my shoes are looking worn. I wonder how many miles I’ve walked!!
Everyone is looking for the deal. Some buyers are capitalizing on the great deals that exist; others are being very cautious and waiting in the wings until they feel the timing is right.
In meeting my clients, there is a common theme that seems to resonate. They target a particular property on the Internet and they decide that this is going to be the property for them. They have researched it, mapped it, and some have even diagrammed and placed their furniture in it. They have found their new place in the Sun and are ready to make it their own!! They are so excited to see that property and make the deal only to be disappointed when they actually see it and the surrounding location. That’s when the buyers turn to me and seek my advice and expertise in finding another property that will suit their needs. While the Internet is great and you can find most of your answers and information to help you, it does not take the place of actually physically seeing the property and the area around it. No matter how far advanced technology becomes, buyer’s agents are still a much needed commodity to help find that perfect property.
So if you find your dream Vero Beach Real Estate property while surfing the net, let me know and I can assist you in making it a reality!!

I know what you mean Cheryl! Here in San Diego the buying activity is incredible. You’d think we were at the top of the market again, people are in such a rush to see homes. But the rush this time is because the lowest-priced foreclosure properties and short-sales are attracting multiple offers in the first few days after the property comes on the market. It’s ironic that buyers have to be in such a rush in a buyer’s market… but we’re making the best of it and my clients are landing some excellent deals. Thank you for your post!
