Has the Market "hit bottom"?
Many people are making predictions about our current real estate market. The one thing we are certain about is that they can't all be right. The "bottom" prices will only be known for sure several months after the fact. No one predicted the spike in prices in 2005 until after the fact so what makes them think the "bottom" has hit.
So is now a good time for you to buy? There are many things to consider such as: do you need a home now? can you wait? are interests rates a factor?
Those who are able take advantage of the low prices will likely benefit down the road, but to claim they have knowingly purchased at precisely the bottom is unlikely. No matter what you have heard about the "bottom" of todays market, it is likely a best guess.
Ask one of our licensed Realtors to help you get started on your search. With their expertise, regardless of whether the bottom has hit, we think you'll be happy with your home-buying decision.
