Georgia Housing Re-setting Prices and/or At the Bottom

By

I do believe that we are approaching the time for a re-set in the home market this season. Georgia has always been on the bottom of the scale in our economy. If our home prices rise too quickly, I think that we will be in another bubble. I am happy that we are selling homes no matter what the price of the homes are. We need the inventory of the homes to go down before we even see any kind of rise in prices of homes. In my years as an investor and realtor, I do agree with you on the combination of opportunity in home buying today with interest rates, tax credits and pricing. It is a great time to buy a home. I would like to add; I have been working with many first time home buyers and if prices rise to quickly these homeowners will become wealthy homeowners. At the same time the home owners who have been struggling to keep up with the economy with their home being upside down in price; what will these homes owners do?

Don't forget to tell those prospects about how badly they can be hurt if they wait to buy and interest rates continue to climb.  This has much more impact than gaining a $10k price reduction.
