Real Estate Information

As we evaluate the Wichita Falls real estate market 45 days into 2010, the term that seems most adequate is fragile.  With interest rates still at 5% level for a 30 year fixed rate mortgage and the government stimulus plan still available until April 30th, it remains an incredible opportunity for the buyer....however the weakness in the economy from job loss and layoffs is affecting the number of buyers able to take advantage of the opportunity.  In the Wichita Falls market the 2010 market is not very kind to the seller because of inventory accumulation.  The Bishop Realtor Group continues to advise sellers that it is "a price war and a beauty contest."  The Bishop Realtor Groups numbers for the first 45 days are solid thanks to a great lead generation program.

Star Power Systems CEO, Alex Charfen, and three of his team members from Austin, Texas spent two days recently interviewing and filming Bishop Realtor Group co-owner, Ashton Gustafson.  Star Power will produce and make available to the market  a cd and dvd of Ashton in his work environment.  Alex Charfen acquired Star Power from longtime real estate consultant educator, Howard Brinton.
