Fall is a great time to buy property on Grand Lake in NE Oklahoma. Sellers are anxious to get sold before winter slow season starts. Many times you can get a seller to offer a discount that would be unthinkable during the prime season from March-July. This year, 2011 I think offers more potential than normal to get a deal.

Many buyers have sat on the fence since stocks started rumbling in mid August. Up until then our sales have been ahead of last year’s pace but since mid August it has slowed down. The result of this is more listings than normal not getting sold and the selling season will slow down by Thanksgiving which means more properties will be carried over until next season gets started. This is good bargaining material to use to get you a deal now.

Couple the above with interest rates at all time lows and it might just be your time to buy. The Oklahoma economy is well above the national economy with jobless numbers under 6% in most counties. It also was just announced that tax collections are up 7% over last year which is another sign of an economy gaining strength.

Don’t wait until good times are everywhere or you will be facing higher real estate prices and higher interest rates.
