Late Summer Price Drops

If you've waited to this point of the season and some of the properties you had your eye on are still available, now can be a great time of the season to take advantage of price drops. A lot of sellers take this as their final opportunity to reduce their price before we are through our busiest season. It can lead to great buying opportunities on top of already attractive pricing this year. You might want to take the time to pull up those old listings to see what the price is now. Even on those that have not reduced price, the tail end of summer can be a great time to get a great deal. Just like boats, convertible cars, and campers, the end of the season is when most sellers are most motivated. The thought of holding their seasonal property through another winter can lead to a higher level of motivation than they may have felt in May. With the stock, market steadily creeping up and unemployment numbers coming in check a bit, 2009 could prove to be the bottom of the market! Sunshine and temps in the 80's are in the forecast for the upcoming week, so take advantage and make your way north for a great time and maybe the one chance you'll have to pick up your own property in Northern Michigan!!
