Real Estate News Releases
|
(EstateNewsWire.com, December 12, 2012 ) Redford, MI -- Roughing it up is how the real estate market is described nowadays. Suffering from the economic crunch, the property sector has yet to rise again to pick up the pieces of its once glorious days. Houses for sale have stayed on the market long enough but still without takers. So the best alternative is to go home swapping.
Started as an idea for budget travelling, the concept of home swapping is beginning to gain acceptance in the real estate niche as well. According to CBS news report, the recent figures in a housing index released by Standard & Poor's showed that U.S. home prices fell for a fourth consecutive month in April, with all regions showing the effect of the housing slowdown. It is no surprise then that homeowners Bob and Terry A. has listed their 5-bedroom ranch house for home swapping despite its being in traditional market for months.
More popularly known in France where it all started, as “Echange maison” the home swapping idea normally associated with vacations and world travel has taken another turn in the real estate business. In fact, CBS news further reports that “In May, the Detroit-area's Craigslist had one or two swap listings each week. As of Friday, 13 such ads had been posted in the past week. On Saturday, the "Housing Swap" section had at least five more posted.” In home swapping, homeowners could cut checks when an agreed price is confirmed, thus avoiding real estate commissions and mortgages.
Kyle, realizing the need to raise awareness about the permanent home swapping concept has created this blog site. Being a consultant in the real estate business, he wanted to provide to homeowners an alternate option to dispose of their properties and find an appropriate replacement. Jim and Nancy D. of Michigan have placed their 4-bedroom house in the market almost a year ago and have yet to meet a suitable buyer. Learning about home swap has opened a new door for them. According to Nancy, “If it is not possible to sell the house for cash, finding a replacement through home swapping would be a good alternative”.
