Buyers Quotations | Page 5

If we can build on Tuesday's significant intraday turnaround, you could see buyers start coming back into the market and you could see a further push higher over the next several days.

If you look at surveys about buying priorities right now, fuel economy ranks sixteenth. For Honda buyers, its fourteenth. Only 2 percent of Honda buyers even think of fuel economy at all. It's not even on the radar. A fuel hike might get it on radar, but it probably won't make it item one, two, three of four. They see the larger vehicles meeting other needs and even with $2.50 a gallon gas, they're not going to necessarily give it up.

If you increase transparency between buyers and buyers or sellers and sellers you reduce the fear factor, which is what induces competition - the fear you will be beaten out by the other guy.

If you truly get 64-bit capability in the marketplace, then I absolutely believe that AMD's momentum will continue, ... This year, AMD went after sophisticated buyers in the server market. Next year, there's the potential to really go after the consumer market.

Instead of bidding on offices and retail properties in Los Angeles, the leveraged buyers will consider Phoenix or Dallas, where the cap rates are higher.

In our view, the message that is emerging from buyers is that acquisition candidates are becoming too greedy. Prices are reaching unsustainable levels.

I know for certain world premieres, we're getting many press and buyers into the first public screening,

In order to encourage the cattle farmers to raise a herd of all-natural cattle, which is a several-year process, they have to know that it's not just Shake Shack that wants to buy it. They have to have other buyers who are willing to pay more for all natural.

In New York, $1,000-a-square-foot is not a lot of money. In New York you have three times as many people vying for a place like that. I just don't know if you have enough buyers here.

In 2005, lending markets continued to support deals in the ARM industry and buyers were particularly aggressive, causing a notable rise in deal values for well-run, niche ARM companies; especially those in the debt buying sector.

Clearly, there is a demand among buyers for the kind of environmentally sensitive community we are creating here.

Clearly, as this sales data and also the mortgage application data show, there is plenty of strength still in housing. However, is this, as we speculate above, fence-sitting buying ahead of perceived rate increases, or can this pace be maintained as buyers think that low rates will last for the foreseeable future?

Being in Loyola College exposed me to other options and gave me confidence, apart from the freedom to bunk classes. I became a merchandiser and then a garment manufacturer, and interacting with foreign buyers and manufacturing foreign brands in India gave me a high.

Housing has peaked and we're expecting some moderate weakening in 2006. It's starting to turn into a buyers' market, with fewer buyers chasing more homes at these mortgage rates.

Hotel owners see foreign investors as offering unfair competition if they don't pay any tax. We tell buyers what taxes they should pay, but you can safely bet that many developers forget to mention the tax due on rents.

Hotel buyers have to be much smarter now than they did a year or two ago.

Certified Pre-Owned Hummer vehicles offer buyers the opportunity to get all the iconic styling and off-road prowess of a Hummer at a price that better fits their budget. These vehicles provide consumers with the confidence of a new vehicle with the affordability of one previously owned.

Buyers were faced with higher mortgage rates, increased inventory levels, and bold predictions of major price corrections last fall, prompting many to postpone their home search until after the first of the year.

Buyers want to see a condo that is neat, clean and updated. When they walk in, it should be in move-in condition. People in Boulder don't want to come home and work on their houses, they want to go out to hike, bike and ski.

Buyers walk out of homes that are not updated, ... They want walk-in closets. They will not buy a house if the bathrooms are not redone. And if you put stainless steel appliances in, that will stick in buyers' minds.

Buyers should insist from their vendors that they have the opportunity to try it, especially if it?s an expensive item.

Buyers should have no pressure whatsoever from fear of increasing prices.

Buyers now don't have to put money down on the first house they see. They can be more selective.

Buyers are taking a wait-and-see attitude. Interest rates crept up a tiny bit, but I haven?t heard much talk of a slow-down.

Buyers are on the sidelines with the U.S. third quarter earnings announcements picking up speed, and more loss warnings are expected from Japanese companies.

Buyers are letting the market fall as there is a slew of negative news.

Buyers are going to be in a sweet spot in about three to six months. The speculators who are still holding properties will be panicking by then as their carrying costs mount. It won't be a bloodbath, but that's when prices should be at their lowest.

Buyers are being very aggressive right now in their offers. A year ago buyers wouldn't come in low because they didn't want to look stupid. Now it's not at all unusual for us to get offers $20,000 to $40,000 under the asking price for homes in the $400,000 to $600,000 range.

Home buyers need something visible on-screen to surprise them, ... If it's the dollar gradually losing another 10 percent or mortgage rates creeping up 1 percentage point, that's not going to do it.

Home buyers must be absolutely sure they can afford the mortgage even if they lose the investment. You must ask: 'Can I afford this mortgage based on my salary or my income?' Just because the bank gave you bad advice and encouraged you do something foolish doesn't mean you should put yourself in that position.

Home buyers are making use of many sources of information in their home searches.

More great Americans were failures than they were successes. They mostly spent their lives in not having a buyer for what they had for sale.

I don't see any negative fallout (from Hard Rock) for us, one way or the other. If anything, it's going to be a plus.

I think it helps us and any other projects going forward that are high quality.

I don't think they (SUV buyers) are terribly concerned yet. I'm not sure buyers believe this price increase is permanent.

However, this is also a potential negative as well, as buyers and sellers communicating on 'the phone' makes it easier to take transactions off eBay,

The market in general has been strong since the fall. I don't see any reason why it should change. We've seen more buyers coming down from Kentucky for our mixed sales in October and January.

The market clearly has some legs left. Buyers who were sitting on the fence, hoping mortgage rates would decline, have decided to make the move now.

The key reason the market is losing momentum is a major decline in housing affordability measures as prices continue to move up aggressively in many, many markets around the country.

The key buyers are funds. With new highs being hit, more momentum will enter the market.

The ultimate buyers of a company like ours have only just begun to emerge in our space. The names we'll associate with the services we provide in three, four, five years from now will be like IBM and EMC and Oracle.

The higher prices, along with any increase in mortgage rates, could make negotiations between buyers and sellers tougher this year.

The hedge funds have pushed this market up, and now they are bringing it down again. Then we may see a small rebound as physical buyers come back into the market.

The idea that some buyers may buy a home over the Internet without actually viewing it is not as far-fetched as it would have seemed several years ago as buyers become more active and involved in the transaction through Web sites. This is particularly true for the vibrant market in the Bay Area where competition for homes is often strong and good listings can be snapped up quickly.

The idea of the all-new FUSE Sports Coupe is a reflection of the boundless limits and creative envelope that embodies all the vital personalization components of a Scion product. Since the launch of Scion three years ago, designers have learned a great deal about what inspires and motivates Scion buyers through its unique vehicle lineup and instilled them into the FUSE.

The Dodge Nitro's styling delivers something extra; that little something mid-size buyers are still searching for -- attitude. In addition, the Dodge Nitro offers many features that are not typical of a mid-size SUV, such as two V-6 engines, 20-inch tires and chrome-clad aluminum wheels and a performance suspension.

A huge amount of prospective buyers never ask why a seller is selling, but it immediately determines their level of motivation.
