Debra Sinick, GRI,CRS Windermere Real Estate/East,Inc. Kirkland, WA 425-260-3219 www.eastsiderealestatebuzz.com www.debrasinick.com Hi Theresa, I like your advice to buyers. You're making sure they are clear on why they may be purchasing a home now. Home buying isn't for everyone, even with a tax credit. I wouldn't be surprised to see a little bit of a lull in housing sales at the end of the tax credit. So many buyers are making that push to buy a home by the 30th of April. However, there will always be those buyers who need to buy because of a growing family, downsizing, job changes, etc. These are the buyers who aren't ready to make a move now, but will be in the near future. I just spoke with one today! The location factor will also play into the real estate market, as always. Some locales will remain stronger because of the local economy and real estate sales will continue to happen. I expect this to happen in my market, the eastside of Seattle, because we still have many people projected to be moving into the area.

Kirkland, WA 425-260-3219 www.eastsiderealestatebuzz.com www.debrasinick.com Multi-generational living solves more than just the financial concerns of the new buyer. As the boomers age, there are more and more people who are looking for a stable, safe, and comfortable environment. There are a lot of options, from aging in place in one's own home to assisted living to having a live-in aide. Not all families can handle the financial burden which accompanies these options. With multiple generations under one roof, the new buyer gets the benefit of financial assistance and the "older" family member benefits from a warm, loving, and safe place to live.
