For the Phoenicians in the house and those interested in Arizona, the Phoenix Business Journal for June 29, 2007 had a few interesting things to say. "Business Pulse" conducted one of those surveys asking participants the question "Are you planning to move to a new home in the near future?" Of the group that responded, 43% are staying put, 35% are still watching the market, 7% said "I've sold my house and have purchased a new home or am looking to buy," and the remaining 13% said "I'd liketo move but can't sell my house." With the 50,000 plus homes on the market (approximate) in Maricopa County and only something like 5000 being sold, I'm not surprised at the 13% waiting around to sell their home.

The "Business Pulse" was on page 47 of the Phoenix Business Journal (June 29th edition). Not sure if it's a regular feature or not. Very interesting though.

Nice extension to the statement. I agree. Hanging on to those homes sellers, if no one buys then perhaps you might want to make yourself an offer. Where have I heard that music before.
