What's Up Yuma? Radio-Edna Castro,real estate agent in Yuma & San Luis

And so you said you're new.

So when I said about selling that you still haven't sold your first house yet, but you're out there looking to give what you received years and years ago was that key right to your own home.

You're trying to do that now.

It seems like and what I just wanted to bring this up.

I hear from a lot of kids now.

They feel like they're never going to own their own home.

That's what I'm hearing a lot of.

So what would you tell them?

Well, I would tell them that I felt the same way years ago, you know, when I was 20 years old at a shelter.

I never thought I was going to be able to own my own home.

But it is possible.

Yes, prices are higher, and it seems like it's like something unreachable.

But there is a lot of programs that do exist.

And that's where, you know, you have to talk to a professional because if you are really serious about doing that next step in your life, you just have to, you know, let the professionals handle it.

So what can you say about the market right now in like Yuma and San Luis, right? Because those are the two cities that you work in, right? Is there available homes? Like you said, there are programs for people who want to be first time home buyers.

But what's the market look like right now?

So yes, right now, currently, what I think, personally, is that it's leaning more towards a buyer's market.

So what that means is that the buyer can really negotiate, and they can find a good home that they really like.

Because back in the time where the houses were priced less, it was very competitive.

So you wouldn't get the house.

It happened to me.

I first saw a house because I just wanted a house, and I said, yeah, let's get this one, make an offer, and it would sell.

The next day, it would sell.

So, yeah, now people just actually have the opportunity to get the house that they really like and negotiate.

Great.
