"Where Real Estate is Looking Good!"

Recent real estate statistics: 1608 - number of homes that sold in Bay County this year through November, 879 - number of condos that sold this year. Properties are selling! I've had an incredible year in real estate, and I am convinced if your property is priced right, there are qualified buyers out there to buy it! Rates continue to hover around 4.25 to 4.5%, up slightly giving new buyers a slight increase in their mortgage payments, thus giving them slightly less buying power. If you are on the fence and not sure if it's time to purchase, MSN projected the Panama City Beach area to be one of the Top 10 Housing Markets in the U.S. through 2014. We all know, 2014 is just around the corner!

This past month was also exciting for Northwest Florida as our local economy got a boost with our out of town visitors who participated in Florida Ironman, including my very own Ironman, RON BRANHAM!
For anyone completing an Ironman of 2.4 miles of swimming, 112 miles on a bike, and then finishing off with a 26.2 marathon, hats off to you. I, on the other hand, am quite content with my recent accomplishment, finishing Panama City Beach's "Run for the Redfish" 5K. Anyone thinking of getting back into shape, no matter what your age, completing a 5K is a great way to start.

Finally, thank you EVERYONE for your incredible support and trust. I am always honored and humbled to be your Realtor! Here's to a terrific holiday season, and may 2011 bring you all PEACE, LOVE, GOOD HEALTH AND GREAT SUCCESS!

Your Realtor For Life,

Karen


HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
