Okay, let's try a small experiment... Close your eyes for a moment, and let your imagination take over. Picture yourself as a buyer walking through a home you may wish to purchase. As you step from the fresh outdoor summertime breeze into the home, your nose immediately notices a slight musty smell. The home appears in good condition except for carpeting that shows heavy wear from the activities of a large family and three dogs.

sellers: Knowing Exactly When the Market Will Change - 02/21/07 10:41 AM
How would you like to know when the real estate market has hit the bottom and prices can be expected to appreciate again? Wouldn't that knowledge be worth a great deal? Well, believe it or not, I can tell you when that will happen. And if you want, I will share my knowledge with you.
You see, it's actually not all that difficult to forecast. The reason for our current depreciating real estate market is simply that more homes are coming ON the market than are going OFF the market. About 19 months ago in the area I sell real estate (the … (20 comments)
