Rhinebeck like many other towns experienced a slow down in the real estate market in 2008.  There was certainly enough inventory just fewer buyers not a big surprise considering the global economic turmoil.

Real estate will continue to be a big factor in the economy because people will need to buy and sell for various reason.  Look at it this way, things go in cycles so there is bound to be a recovery.  Did things come to a standstill this year? No! there were just fewer sales.

So think positive, and if you need to engage in a real estate transaction in 2009, yes you can achieve your goal.  Just remember to price it right and seek professional advice of a Realtor who knows what is happening in the market, such as, the short sale or foreclosure down the block will affect your property.

Jennifer, a slow down is to be expected.  We should be thankful that we are not experiencing the same thing as FL, AZ, CA, & NV

George - That is a good point, here in the Northeast we did not see the dramatic drop as experienced by some of the other markets.
