You know how Realtors are always telling you, 'Now's a GREAT time to buy!'? In our defense, depending on what segment of the buyer pool you're in (first-timers, investors, downsizers, upsizers, etc.), it's almost always a good time for somebody to buy.

However, at this moment here on the Cape these are the YTD stats we are working with:

• Sales Volume UP 25%
• Total Value UP 20%
• Individual Value DOWN 5%
• 30-yr Mort. Rate 3.875%
• Banks are loosening lending standards.

WE'RE HAVING A STINKIN SALE, PEOPLE!

So, unless you were financially destroyed by the recession (which does admittedly eliminate a great swath of folks), I think it is very safe to say that now--NOW--is most certainly a fantabulous, pinch-me-is-this-real, GREAT time for you to buy on the Cape.

This blog post has nothing to do with real estate or Cape Cod. It is about humanity. Watch the video here. Then do something, ANYTHING, then go back to the rest of your day.
