Season’s Greetings from CENTURY 21 Beggins Enterprises

December 8, 2011 Leave a comment

As we bring 2011 to a close, we’re thankful for many things.  To name a few, we’re thankful to have made it through perhaps the toughest economic cycle in the last Century.  We’re thankful to be celebrating our 20th Anniversary with CENTURY 21 in June of 2012.  We’re thankful for a tremendous Team of Support Staff and Amazing Team of Real Estate Salespeople and finally we’re thankful for the many great friends we’ve made and clients we’ve helped over the more than 10,000 transactions we’ve closed.

Along with being thankful for many blessings, we’re also quite optimistic about the future.  The past 6 years of declining market and incredibly reduced prices have taught us all valuable lessons. 

We’ve learned that Real Estate values cannot appreciate at double digits for long without retracting.

  • We’ve learned that real estate markets over correct.  They go up too high and they come down to low.
  • We’ve learned that after a big boom comes a bigger bust.
  • We’ve learned that after a big bust comes a bigger boom.
  • We have learned that Real Estate is a tangible asset, that unlike stocks, no matter how bad the market gets, it still has value and gets traded. It never goes to zero.
  • We have learned that a lot of Buyers are purchasing great cash flowing properties now, and others are getting dream homes for their families at less than replacement cost.
  • We’ve learned that recessions and declining property values hurt a lot of people, and
  • We’ve learned that our Short Sale System helps a lot of these people
  • We’ve learned that recessions and declining property values make a lot of people rich, and
  • We’ve learned that our Own America Course is helping a lot of these people learn the Art of Investing in Real Estate.

This reminds me of the Chinese symbol “Yin Yang”  which teaches that inside every crisis is an opportunity.  Yin and Yang are negative (Yin) and positive (Yang) forces. These forces act together to create energy.

As we work hard this month to finish our closings for the year, we look forward to harnessing the energy we’ve amassed over this cyclical downturn to create a new future for ourselves, our agents and staff and our valued friends and clients.

We thank you for your support and wish you a safe and festive Holiday Season.  And of course, please continue to support the agent who is bringing you this newsletter and remember that we’re here to help you any way we can.

We have dynamic departments to help you with nearly every facet of real estate ownership.  Senior Living, Investment Properties, Waterfront Sales, Golf Course Sales, Short Sales, and even normal Sales and our team of sales people have an amazing support system that included tools for you to use.  So ask your agent about:  Listingbook, Own America, Abraham and Sweeney (Foreclosure Defense and Short Sale Negotiation Lawyers), and our incredible Marketing Strategy that’s generating over 1000 leads each month.

Until next time, may you have fair weather and following seas!
