Reasons to Buy Now

From the Georgia Association of Realtors:

It's a buyer's market - motivated sellers are offering ahost of value-added incentives.

Homeownership is the first step toward building wealth

Interest rates are still historically low, currently hovering around 6.25% as compared to an average of 7.75 percent in 1997 and 10.25 percent in 1987.

Homeownership may qualify you for tax deductions.

Return on investment - Georgia is a hot commodity! Our state has topped several "great places to live" lists in recent months. Among them are Forbes Magazine's Top Ten Most Affordable Places to Live Well, and five Goergia counties secured half of the slots for Progressive Farmer's Top 10 Places with the Best Air Quality.

Location, location, location - homes are available in a vaierty of price ranges throughout Georgia.

Homebuyers have more housing choices than ever before.

Despite the negative  press in recent months, realize that all real estate is local and what is happening in other areas in the United State does not neccessarily reflect your local housing market. As a matter of fact, prices can vary from neighborhood to neighborhood. This buyer's market will not last forever.
