Vancouver Weekly Real Estate Update

From “Creative Real Estate Magazine”:
“Many of the people who are complaining right now were also complaining last year about exactly the opposite conditions." Isn’t it time to stop complaining and get to work yet?

One of my favorites real estate related quotes is “Fortunes in real estate have been made in good times, bad times, and in-between times.” I’d like to add my own ending to that statement: But NO fortunes were made by people who spend all their time complaining. :) Remember: Deals exist in every market, it's just a matter of doing it...

Has anyone told you 'The Secret'?

If you haven’t heard “The Secret” yet, you will (it's on “Oprah” this Thursday). 'The Secret' is a documentary about the Law of Attraction, i.e., what the mind of (wo)man can conceive, (wo)man can achieve. Essentially, it’s about getting EXTREMELY clear about what you want and not being afraid to put it out there.

Most people DON’T use The Secret. Here’s a typical meeting with a new buyer:

“So you’re looking to buy a house! How soon?”

“Not sure…six months from now. I’m in no rush” [it’s always six…never 4, never 8]

“And what are you looking for?”

“We’re open….we just want a good deal.”

“Okay, what area?”

“We could really go anywhere if it’s a good deal.”

“What did your lender say you could afford?”

“He said to find a house then call him”

Now I don’t mind helping buyers with all that. It’s part of my job. But how likely is this person to find their dream home? What have they conceived? Not much.

Here’s the twist - successful people already use 'The Secret', they just don’t know it:

“So you’re looking to buy a house! How soon?”

“As soon as possible. We are selling our current home to trade up, and want to put it on the market right away as we look for a new house. We sat down with our mortgage broker, and decided we want a 10-yr interest only, and figured we can spend $3200 a month on our mortgage. So $950,000 is the very top. Three bedrooms or more, at least 2 baths. We’ve been driving areas for a few days and want to focus on Kits first, Dunbar second and East Vancouver third. When can we start looking?”

The real magic occurs when you start going for it. What your mind can conceive, you can achieve. Go to [http://www.thesecret.tv/] www.thesecret.tv and order the DVD, and then call us.

Guatemalan Medical Mission: Harris Group raising some MONEY!

On February 17th we'll be hosting a fund raiser for a medical mission to Guatemala!

Two local nurses are raising money so they can join a medical team that travels to the hinterlands of Guatamala to provide much needed medical services for some of Earths poorest people. To help raise money, we're hosting a wine and cheese event on the 17th of February in our office. There will be some live music, good wine, great art, vacations to win and plenty of great people, so be sure to come and support this very worthwhile cause.

Starts at 7 pm at 101-272 E. 4th Ave. please mailto:darcy@darcyharris.com?subject=RSVP RSVP and bring your friends!

If you can't make it but would like to donate, please contact us for details. All the money is going DIRECTLY to the Medical team and the people most in need. http://www.pueblopartisans.org for more information.
