TGIF Scoop

 presented by Kay Baker & Associates

Hello and welcome to TGIF Scoop!

The Wilmington real estate market has experienced 7 months of gains! Great news for our local real estate market. To get all the statistics for our market just read the rest of the story..


The counttdown is on for the April 30 deadline to have a contract on a home, to receive your $8,000 stimulus money.  Call us! 2010 should be one of the best years in history for  home buying opportunities due to historic low interest rates, foreclosure and short sales, the tax credit and the large inventory to choose from.  Call us, use our local knowledge and experience to help guide you. Visit www.cbbaker.com for up the minute MLS listings of homes in our tri-county area. And, we can send you a detailed list of all the short sales and foreclosures on the market. Just send a quick email to kaybaker@seacoastrealty.com. We will send the list right to your email box.

Get out this weekend and enjoy all the activities. And, remember, TGIF.....
