Good Monday morning to you!

Its hard to believe we are already 1/3 of the way through 2010. I mentioned last week that our inventory of great homes is a good as its ever been. www.TheFallsHomeFinder.com . If anyone you may know is in the market place, please forward them this email.

Market Statistics: Average Days on Market for SOLDS

$350,000 and up........408 days

$250,000 - $350,000........92 days

$200,000 - $250,000........81 days

$150,000 - $200,000..........117 days

$100,000 - $150,000..........72 days

These are very interesting figures. The Sheppard Air Force Base market has been very active from $225,000 - $275,000, and numerous first time home buyers took advantage of the credit from $100,000 - $150,000...therefore, we can see why these two parameters shared the lowest days on market. For more information on this, please let me know.

Hope all is well, and make it a great week.

What's happening in the housing market? What's being done about it? Learn about the government's new HAFA program, providing foreclosure avoidance options including short sales and deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure. Here's the big picture, clearly explained. For more information see www.WichitaFallsShortSale.com .

Good Monday morning to you!

We now have 19 days left to capitalize on the federal tax credit for both first time and repeat buyers. If you have any questions on qualification or how this works, please let me know - ashton@bishoprealtors.com.

Our market continues to act as a "price war" and a "beauty contest". While we have seen record sales in the last 30 days, the inventory available is as high as we have ever seen. Nevertheless, mortgage rates remain at historical lows, and our market has successfully navigated through one of the toughest economic conditions ever - for that, we should have gratitude.

If you know someone that has fallen behind on their mortgage, please forward them to www.WichitaFallsShortSale.com. They can find great information on how to resolve their mortgage problems.

Also, if you or someone you know is looking to purchase in this market, forward the site www.TheFallsHomeFinder.com to them. This site has quickly become the most used site for buyers in the Greater Wichita Falls.

If we can serve you or anyone you may know this week, please let me know. Best of luck this week.
