EVER GET A "FEELING"?



Bail-outs, Layoffs, Store Closings, Unemployment, Bankruptcy, Recession, Depression - Gloom and Doom are everywhere.  TV, Radio, Newspapers and Magazines are all harking the bad news.

 

What would happen if we decide not to participate?  Unemployment is close to 8%, but that means  92% of the population IS employed, right?

 

InvestmentReal estate is still the best investment out there.  God isn't making anymore - last time I checked.

In the Ozarks (SW Missouri) we had inflated prices, but not to the degree  other parts of the country had.  In 2008  properties  sold at 94% list to sell ratio here.  That is not bad. 

 

I am frequently talking to  people who are thinking that  1.4% interest on their Money Markets or CD's is not enough and are determining to invest that money in land and property.



So call me a Cockeyed Optomist (South Pacific), but our phones are starting to ring more,  we had three walk-in's this week, and I have two offers working.   If people are looking at lake property, spring can't be far away and springtime in the Ozarks is a wonderful thing!

I've got 'THAT' feeling again.  Charged up and ready for the fun of selling some Table Rock Lake property in Shell Knob, Missouri.   FORECAST:  Sunny Sales
