Coldwell Banker’s ad is remarkable. This ad largely defines why I do what I do, and why my buyer clients are looking to buy homes.
I’m going to go out on a limb and say that the prevailing reason that most of my clients are buying right now is because the messages in this ad resonate with them.
They are buying homes, not necessarily investments. They are buying in (and into and within) communities and neighborhoods. The bricks and sticks offer stability of payments, but also stability of place.

Those kids–attached to their friends and schools–will, after a certain age, also be very resistant.
