Real Estate

One of my favorite lines in the classic A Charlie Brown Christmas is when Lucy is unloading to Charlie Brown about Christmas and how she never gets what she really wants.  Charlie Brown then asks her "What is it you really want?"  Lucy replies, "Real Estate".

Even Lucy understood the value of real estate and although the line I'm sure was put in for adults to enjoy, the message has been imprinted in children's minds for decades.

When we all bought our homes, it was understood that it would increase in value over the years.  In the past few years, this has not been the case, however, a change is in the air.  Happily, it looks as though the housing market is on the rise.  From pacific palisades real estate to east coast properties, real estate is making a come back.  Not only have the number of new homes being built increased, but home resales have jumped.

This is none too soon for me.  I am looking to sell my home in less than a year and there will be a direct relationship to the selling cost of my home and how nicely I can finish my walk out basement at my daughters new home.  And I'd really like to do it up nice so it is an asset for them and adds value to their real estate.



This is a sponsored post for the Partners Trust, however, all the points and views are my own.
