Yesterday I attended a meeting presented by the Deputy Chief Economist of Freddie Mac, Amy Crews Cutts, PhD. In this meeting, Amy talked about the national economy and housing market. She was very encouraged that we are turning the corner on the recession and climbing out. Below is the Powerpoint presentation that she gave. I thought others might find it useful, so I wanted to share it with you. If you have any questions about the material presented, don’t hesitate to email or call me with questions. Enjoy!

Only twenty minutes from uptown Charlotte, this newly remodeled home in the established neighborhood of Raeburn is a first time homebuyer’s dream. Its new carpet, new paint, new granite in the kitchen, and new flat top stove all make it feel like a new home.

If you are a first time buyer, don’t forget that you can get a tax credit up to $8000 if you purchase and close by the end of November! For additional details on how the tax credit works, get your free guide here.
