Looking Back at 2019 and Forward to 2020.

As we now look back on 2019, it has been an interesting year.

In spite of all the fights between the Democrats and the Republicans.

In spite of weather that was much hotter than normal and in spite of the tariff fights with China and Mexico.

We found that lower interest rates and a booming economy provided us with a fantastic real estate market in Newnan and Coweta County.

We saw a huge increase in home sales and therefore, in sale prices for homes.

Looking forward to 2020, we can expect more of the same because interest rates remain historically low and Newnan and Coweta County have become one the hottest real estate markets in Georgia. We have great medical facilities, super shopping, new industries and businesses, plus, we have a prime location on I-85 near Atlanta and the Atlanta airport. There is now much to see and do here, and our Newnan campus of the University of West Georgi...

Christmas 2019 at Lindsey's

This time of year we look back on the year and realize how blessed we have been. Despite so many headwinds, we have had an outstanding year. We have seen prayers answered and true miracles. We know that we should seek out ways that we can help the less fortunate in our community and in our world

There are so many opportunities to give back such as Toys for Tots, the Red Cross to help the devastated people in Bermuda, Angel House, Bridging the Gap, the AO House, the United Way, the Salvation Army, the Wounded Warrior Project, the American Cancer Society, and so many other worthy causes. It truly is more blessed to give than to receive, and we intend to always do our part to make the world a better place.

In our community we are fortunate to have Piedmont Hospital and the Cancer Treatment Centers of America available to us health wise ...

The Coweta County Real Estate Market is still strong. This market can be considered a seller's market, especially in the lower to middle price points. When taking my clients out to search for homes, it is extremely competitive from the $100,000's to $300,000 price point. We constantly encounter multiple offer situations. It is very frustrating when you make an offer on a property and lose out to another buyer. To counter this, we Realtors are trying to find off market options (properties that are not listed) for our clients. The speed at which you move to find a home as it hits the market, or sometimes even before, makes a huge difference. Buyers must also have their financing in order and be ready to make an offer on a home quickly. Being pre-qualified and having good communication with your lender, is essential if you are a buyer in today's real estate world.

The good news for buyers is that it is still a good time to purchase a home as interest rates are still low. I am c...

How excited everyone is to have this wonderful Memorial Day weekend to celebrate and enjoy family events at the beach, in the mountains or just at home in the backyard. Cookouts are planned with family and friends. However, we must all pause to remember those who gave their all that we may enjoy times such as this, as free citizens of this great country. We are all in debt to those brave citizen soldiers who came before us. Their sacrifice make all of this possible.

Have a great Memorial Day, but take a minute to salute old Glory, our Flag. We are so lucky and blessed.

NOW IS THE BEST TIME TO BE A BUYER OR A SELLER OR BOTH

The best selling/buying time of the year begins about the middle of February to the first of March. People start to look around for finding a bigger or smaller house in the spring, plus those who plan to move when school lets out begin the process in the spring.

This year, the interest rates are behaving and are still historically low. Rates will probably go higher by 2020, so the time to take advantage of these low rates is now. Do not be a fence sitter because these opportunities do not last forever.  It is a great time to be a buyer.

Inventory levels are still low in our area, so demand is high. Multiple offers are now commonplace. Offers are usually on the higher end, so it is a great time to be a seller, too.

Spring into Spring and list your home, then buy or build your dream home or one that better me...
