The current market has everyone scared. This includes buyer AND sellers. Buyers are afraid that if they buy now, the market may still come down. Sellers are afraid that they won't get the top dollar for their homes or that no one is buying so theres no point in selling. I believe we are in transition and the market will find its way out. We have to keep plugging, keep writing offers and stay positive. As it is a buyers market, there are still great buys/deals to be had.
To Buyers: Take advantage of the fact that sellers may be scared as well. This IS a 'buyers' market. There are many choices to pick from and if you are ready, willing and able, no seller should turn you away. Put all your ducks in a row, present yourself ready and submit an offer. My job as your agent is to keep negotiations open so that we can agree. However, even if you do buy and the market still goes down, I believe it will not go down much more. The benefit of an "investment" is that over time you make money. Just like the stock market, there are highs and lows but over the long haul, its an investment worth having. Take advantage of the current market and let your home be your investment.
Right now is a great time to buy. Get your buyers out there and start writing offers. Make the market adjust to you. We will make it out of this strange and unstable time we are in. And we will all be better after it- agents, buyers and sellers.
