More than anything else agents, brokers and lenders want this to be a good time to buy. In fact the national associations all have media saying this is a good time to buy. We even read and hear that it is a great time to buy.

But is it? Is it really a good time to buy? You can either listen to us give our opinions or join in with us on Friday, Decemer 5th at 2PM eastern, 11AM pacific for this one hour broadcast on BlogTalkRadio in conjunction with RealNowRadio.

I started writing on Active Rain in 2006 when I was representing the mortgage industry. I am no longer in that industry and many of the older posts contain outdated information. Please do not contact me for LENDING or MORTGAGE questions but rather contact a licensed mortgage professional from your area. I have always been in marketing and branding and that is still what I do. Thanks for reading!

I think it matters what part of the US you are in and if the talk of the feds lowering the interest to 4.5% are true. I am certainly going to tune in and look forward to a very educated discussion! (4-3)

Ken - As you know, I'll have to listen after it's recorded.  I am having lunch with a fellow Rainer from Canada tomorrow!  Per our phone conversation, the birthday thing I mentioned is NEXT Friday.  Have a good one -

I will try to keep it on the front burner...  I might even have an opinion...  Might.  You know mw, I'm not real opinionated.

Craig - the question is on the mind of many prospective buyers. The answer is out there and you have some clues to it. Looking forward to hearing them!

David - I hope you can join us live and help us hear the answer. Thanks if you can and if not please answer it in your blog.

Lane - we really need your opinion. Seriously, this is a question that can only be answered by you and your counterparts nationwide. Invite your readers and call in!

hey great show.  Certainly some useful ammunition for those advising clients. 

I found a lot of humor in the NAR crying wolf about "great time to buy."  Good insight.

Lane - lots have already played it but hopefully more will. We need some good listener ratings to help move it up the demand list!

David - thank you for that compliment. Yes, that was a very good point and I chuckled a bit under my breath, too.

Brett - how are listing prices and days on market?
