Suzy Orman’s Advice on Real Estate
Posted January 10, 2008
Look, I like Suzy. For the most part I think she gives very good solid GENERIC advice on finances. But here lately Suzy is becoming just another “Talking Head” on the TV.
A collegue of mine recently expressed frustration in dealing with a client. This client wanted to sell their home and had recently watched Suzy Orman advise someone NOT to sell right now, so they were going to wait for now. As my collegue tried to explain to the client, “We do not live in one of those areas that are suffering from a major declining market”, the client seemed to take Suzy’s advice more seriously.
Folks, please remember that when you are getting your advice in life, make sure that the advice you are getting is from good counsel that is not only informed in general, but also knows your own situation. If you watch Suzy’s show, she gives advice to folks on the TV after a 30 second Q&A drill! This means that she has to take a sliver of information about your situation and then provides you with potentially LIFE ALTERING financial advice! Is this the advice you really want to listen to?
Find a professional in your area that can sit down with you and actually offer solid advice based on YOUR situation… not what the media news claims. After all, when the current story changes tomorrow, so will the advice given by these “experts.”
As a professional mortgage lender in Charlotte, I have told folks that they should not buy a home, or they should not refinance their mortgage. YES… I turned business away! Why? Because it was the right thing for that customer! And by doing the right thing for my customers, I will always be able to give solid advice without compromise and my customers know that they can trust it. I am here for the long haul, not just seeking the quick buck!
So if you need financial advice, give me a call. At least I will listen to your entire situation BEFORE offering potentially life altering advice! And you will know that since I took the time to get to know you, you can trust what I am sharing with you.
Thanks,

Ed - thanks for including me - this is a GREAT website!
National Media necessarily covers topics on a national level. FORTUNATELY, Real Estate is a LOCAL event - and therefore your recommendations that someone speak with a LOCAL person about financing and Real Estate are the best advice any of us can give!
