It's all part of constructing a better Real Estate Brokerage Model

If there is anyone out there in Central Ohio still considering the purchase of their first home, now is the time. I am not a cheerleader type, especially for the same sort of party line that all real estate agents are eschewing right now.

That said, the truth is, there’s never been a better time to buy your first home. Interest rates are at historically low levels and thought to be increasing soon. Housing stock, even at this time of year, is plentitful and growing and less expensive than it may have been a couple years ago.

And, oh yeah, there is an $8,000 tax credit for first time Buyers and a $6,500 tax credit for Sellers. There’s never been a better time to buy your first home. Until now.

Delicious Real Estate is rebating cash back to all buyers.

• $1,000 to Buyers of homes $135,000 and over
• $2,000 to Buyers of homes $235,000 and over
• $3,000 to Buyers of homes $335,000 and over

Just like the tax credit, this offer only extends to any buyer who is in contract on a home by April 30, 2010.  Unlike the tax credit, this offer is not limited to first time buyers, rather it is open to any buyer.

*Buyers must be pre-approved by lender of choice.

*Homes must be in Franklin or contiguous Counties.

*The rebate will mentioned in the purchase contract for the home and listed on the settlement statement as required by state law.

*You must know the secret password which means you read to at least the middle of the post. The secret password is “Go Clippers!”

*Call, email or stop by for more information

Why am I doing this?

1. I’m driven to prove that a better buying and selling experience is possible for less.
2. I want to get the Delicious Real Estate name out in the world more than I have in the first year of the Firm’s existence.
3. I’m concerned about potential negative impacts on our local market of FHA changes and the end of the tax credit and think that the last 3-4 months of 2010 will be very slow.
4. I’m already considering the idea of rebating. It’s part of my client-centric philosophy.
5. The first quarter is typically a bit slower than the 2nd or 3rd quarter of the year.
