Hula and The Real Estate Market Today

This year in Real Estate has been exciting, not always in a good way but still very active. Thus the blogging just got put by the wayside, but my 1st resolution for 2011 is to Remember to Blog. Just back from a family vacation in Florida where it was sunny everyday but froze my tailend off and returned to not so sunny Calif. where it never rains, it pours hard and I'm still frozen. Hummm, guess it's really winter something we forget about in Calif. With all the rain, will come lush mountain sides hopefully not mountain slides. And we can start the new year with everything cleansed and new again, well that's the hope anyway. I'm looking forward to 2011, 2010 was a year of 1st time homebuyers struggling in this sometimes venoumous real estate world but my gut feeling is that 2011 will be a year of real estate investors which will help this market recover a bit. It's going to take investors with cash to bring us back, the banks have kept the interest rates down but to qualify you have to go through the mud and back to survive and endure their torture. It's time to release those REO's they've been clenched to and work with RE Agents to get this clean up started. Were all ready to get a fresh new start this year so with this I'll send out my Ha'ole Maka Hiki Ho (Happy New Year) to all of you, here's wishing you a Peaceful and Prosperous New Year!!
