EXIT Realty Agents Went Door to Door to Educate Renters About Home Ownership
Denver CO, 12/15/2012 - This past weekend in a coast-to-coast concerted effort to educate renters about the possibility of owning a home for equal to or less than the amount they are paying in rent EXIT Realty Agents knocked on thousands of rental doors. In this so called “down market” one thing is certain, now is the time to invest in real estate or purchase your own piece of the American Dream. Loan programs that require the purchaser to put little to no money down and pay little to no closing costs combined with current low interest rates make owning a home easier than it has been in countless years. Many people who do not own a home wish they did, but are not aware of just how easy it can be to purchase. “Our economy is wrapped around the real estate market, so to improve the economy consumers need to be educated about the current real estate market, how the market works, and how they can help to improve it,” says Johnny Loewy, Corporate Trainer for EXIT Realty Corp. International. Real estate specialists understand that decreasing the inventory of homes available on the market is a key component to improving the market overall. “Our associates at EXIT Realty Denver Tech Center & EXIT Realty Cherry Creek agreed that if America is not getting the message about how and why they should invest in real estate, we’ll take the message right to their door,” comments Sheryll White, Broker /Owner of EXIT Realty Denver Tech Center & Cherry Creek. The team at EXIT Realty is committed to doing their part to improve the real estate market and the economy where they live and work by providing community education to anyone who would like to learn more about the possibilities and benefits of home ownership.
