maryland real estate: MARYLAND AND VIRGINIA REAL ESTATE, INVESTOR CALLS INCREASING - 10/13/07 11:17 AM
Prices are down about 5-10% in our market.  A few pockets are showing price increases, but on very reduced number of sales.  A market with a 2.5% increase in prices year to year, but with only 75% of the number of sales, is not necessarily a healthy market. 
The national and local news reports about foreclosures in Maryland and Virginia are encouraging investor buyers back into the market.  These homes need to sell and investors are usually the buyers with cash to make repairs and get the homes back on the market for home owner occupant buyers.  Home owner occupants can benefit greatly by … (2 comments)
