Wow is this holiday confusing! Some people think we are celebrating Washington’s Birthday, others say we are recognizing and appreciating Washington and Lincoln and others indicate it is a day to recognize all Presidents that haled from the great Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Then others quip that it's a great day to buy a car as we have the traditional President’s Day Sales.

In Real Estate it is our time to gear up for the Spring Market. This year may be different, however, as buyers are keenly aware that the stimulus tax credits ($8,000 for first time home buyers and $6,500 for existing homebuyers) are expiring on July 1^st, 2010 with purchase and sale agreements signed by April 30^th, 2010 and as we all know finding a home isn’t something you can do overnight.  Sellers realize this as well, so they are considering moving up their timetable to list their home to accommodate this rather than waiting for the green grass and the spring flowers.

Well we are certainly proud of our Presidents. Maybe we have second guessed a few decisions over the years, (maybe quite a few) but that said our hats off to anyone that is willing to take on that job.

At Goodwin Realty Group we realize the urgency this year so those folks that are ready to take advantage of the stimulus tax credits have a partner to assist them in finding their home.
