THE ADVOCACY REVIEW
FEBRUARY 13, 2009- The State of Real Estate in South Florida
Have you ever asked yourself these questions? When will I know it’s time to buy? Should I rent or buy? Is a credit crunch bad? More ARM resets? When will we reach the point of equilibrium? The Feds, they can fix this, right? I just want to buy a house? What does all this have to do with me? If you are interested in learning more and getting answers to some of these questions join our panelists for a discussion on the current and future conditions in the housing and credit markets in South Florida. Moderated by Matt Haggman, The Miami Herald. For only $250.00 you can promote your business, product or service to your fellow Chamber members and business community.
