Life is full of pros and cons. The majority of the time its our perspective and attitude that determines what we consider to be a pro or a con. Is the glass half full or half empty? Let me tie this into real estate since this is a real estate page. Lets say your looking buy your first home but you're waiting for interest rates to finally go down. High interest rates can be seen as a con for some, but a savvy buyer would consider it as a glass to be half full situation, knowing that the high rates helps keep home prices in check. The savvy buyer doesn't mind the higher rate knowingly that he will have less competition in the market place. Keeping a positive mind set will help you see more clearly the opportunity in this ever changing life/market. For every cloud there is a silver lining.
Have a great day!
