This week’s blog is an open letter of appreciation and gratitude to all our clients from the past and present, extending to future clients as well. It is your trust and belief in us that makes this all possible. Because of your client support, the following results occured last year. Our parent company, Century 21 Four Seasons was ranked #1 in real estate sales for Sevier County. The Jason White Team was in the top 5 or top 1% of the Great Smoky Mountains Association of Realtors.  It is an honor to achieve this status, especially with the challenging economic environment that has impacted almost every part of today’s world. Once again, thank you for selecting the Jason White Team to represent you in buying or selling your real estate in the Smokies.

As we move into 2010, let me assure you that my team is already working to make this year more successful than last, for our clients and ourselves. The people on my team are continually upgrading their training and education. Our website, www.smokymountainlifestyle.com/ continues to receive the latest tools and upgrades to assist you in selling or buying your property. The intended goal is to make our website as user friendly, as possible.  Time is often an overlooked commodity. If we can allow you to search for and pre-screen properties before a visit to the area, you can focus on the top choices.  This allows you time to enjoy East Tennessee’s ammenities.  The process permits us to better serve you, both as a buyer or seller.

In viewing 2010, as a good year to either buy or sell real estate, there are several factors to consider. Prices in most phases of real estate are off their highs. The current state of East Tennessee property shows that values seem to be stabilizing.  Inventoryof homes for sale is declining, but there is still a great selection of properties available. Mortgage interest rates are still historically low, and there are some tax incentives available from the government through early 2010. With uncertainty on the future value of the dollar, this could be a good time to anchor the value of a portion of your savings, in a hard asset like real estate.  The Jason White Team has the knowledge and experience to assist you in selling or in buying your property in the Smokies.
