The National Association of REALTORS reported in late September that recent sales for existing homes declined slightly, to an estimated annual volume of 4.91 million units for 2008. Recent tightening in mortgage lending has created challenges for some of today’s home buyers. According to Freddie Mac, the thirty year fixed rate mortgage hovered around 6.5 percent during the month of August, up slightly from the month before.
Officials are hoping that recent actions taken by the Federal government will create stability in the housing market. Lawrence Yun, chief economist for the National Association of REALTORS, says, “With higher loan limits and a beefing up of the FHA program, all the mechanisms have been falling into place to increase mortgage availability.”

Because we receive such a large number of requests, and because we operate our own business by referral, we have decided to commit some of our time and resources to compiling a Referral Directory that lists the finest individuals and companies serving our community.
With this in mind, we want your input! Chances are you know contractors, home repair persons, CPAs, doctors, attorneys, window cleaners, auto mechanics, etc. whose services have been exceptional and extremely valuable to you and your family. Speaking of people who do an excellent job, perhaps you provide a service you would like us to include in this Directory, which will be distributed to all our clients, friends and associates.
In any case, we will be mailing a questionnaire to the people who are in our Client Appreciation Program. When it arrives, please complete it and return it to us. Or, if you prefer, email us with your recommendations, as well as the referrals you will be needing in the next twelve months. If you are not in our Client Appreciation Program, and would like to be, please let us know! This is a great program where we keep in touch about real estate, send out regular mailings, and have fun events.
This Directory will list the most reliable and professional people we can find. We look forward to your input and plan to publish the Referral Directory within the next three or four months. We know it will be of great value to you and all our friends and clients.
Once again, we thank you for your business in the past, present, and future, and we look forward to providing you and the people you refer to us with the highest quality of service in the purchase, rental, or sale of real estate.
