The new Real Estate year started yesterday, the 4th of January, 2010.  The first business day of the year was a cold one, the low temperature was the same as the date, 4.  By the days end I would see as many as 20 new listings in the area surrounding my home.  These few square miles blossomed like a spring garden even though the sun only shone for 13 hours.  What’s the rush you ask?  Here is how I see it.  The extended tax credit, $8000 for first time buyers and $6500 for move-up buyers, has a sunset of April 30th.  That’s just 4 months away and I don’t think any sellers want to miss this opportunity.  The new credit it written that there must be ab accepted offer by that date, and the closing will need to happen in the subsequent 60 days.  I am certain the first few months of 2010 will be busy ones.  My fear is that it will be busy like a be hive is busy, lots of buzzing, bumping, flying, and constant activity.  The real story I want to know is how much honey will they make.
