market picking up?

By
Home Inspector with Island Home Inspection, Inc.

Just wondering if everyone is getting busier or if the market is still dragging along? My inspections seem to be picking up a bit (Finally).  Good Luck to all.

I think that it is, we are getting more business as far as listings go, and sales seem to be picking up, we are just hoping that it is a trend and not a fad!

The market is picking up across the country, but at different paces based on the market. We are seeing more first time home buyers and an increase in FHA and VA financing

Good luck and success

Have had a steady increase in business for the last 3 months, with July's increase being substantial. Hope it continues!!

I think sellers are finally realizing that it's not 3 years ago and are not going to get the premium for their property.  hope it keeps improving for all of us.

Yes. I have been busy! I had a slow spring which was odd. Now I am much busier.

I'm still averaging three sales per month, however the numbers are about 2/3rd lower than the past 5+ years. Prices are continuing to drop, with increased inventories and more REO properties.
