December 2016 Real Estate Ezine

Michael Arthur

About the month of December:

December is the twelfth and last month of the year in the Gregorian Calendar and one of seven Gregorian months with the length of 31 days.

December’s flower is the narcissus or holly. December’s birthstones are turquoise, lapis lazuli, zircon, topaz (blue), or tanzanite.

In Latin, decem means “ten”. December was also the tenth month in the Roman calendar until a monthless winter period was divided between January and February.
December is the month with the shortest daylight hours of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and the longest daylight hours of the year in the Southern Hemisphere.

December in the Northern Hemisphere is the seasonal equivalent to June in the Southern Hemisphere and vice versa.

Supply & Demand
      Do you remember the ‘tickle me Elmo’ craziness from a few years back?  It was the hottest toy for Christmas, and people stood in line for hours to get one.  People were able to sell those dolls for 10X what they paid for them.  Why?  Simple supply and demand.  The supply was low, the demand was high – so the price reflected it.

The same is true for real estate.  There is a serious shortage of rental properties available in many areas, and that leads to low vacancies.  Low vacancies mean we can charge higher rents, and increase our profits and the values of our properties.  And the beautiful thing about real estate is that it fills a true need.  People always need shelter – in good times and in bad times.  I love real estate because there is a built in demand.
