If your looking to buy a home then from the buyers point of view the market is great! You have many options. You can take your time and get the best value for your money. You can low ball your offers too because there are a lot of home owners in bad situations. The key is to get financing. A lot of financing has dried up for lower credit score borrowers. The other key is keeping your job right. If you are in a recession proof field then no worries. However if you can afford to wait, then next winter will be even better because the values on homes are going to drop even harder than they have already pluss home values and sales are slower in the winter. Below is the website for hud homes. I've been keepin an eye on the quality of the homes showing up and they are getting better each month which means more people are walking away from their homes and values are dropping. I was on the lending industry for 4 years. hope this helps ... If you ask a realestate agent keep in mind they are a salesman ..........

Probably won't get much better.
Prices down and mortgage rates are very low.
Buy, Buy

It's awesome to buy. There's actually been a buying slump in the last 10 years, so everyone trying to do real estate or flip houses is stuck with the losses. Buy now.

Depends what state you live in. If you're in Florida, Arizona, Nevada, California, Colorado, the market is Godawful. Tons of foreclosures and unfinished projects. It's fairly stale everywhere on the whole. If, however, you are looking to buy a place and live in it for awhile, you might consider looking for some steals. Prices of homes are dropping tremendously.

The market is going to continue to decline for about the next 6 months how far is really unknown but I've seen anywhere from 5 - 20% it's all speculative as far as how much it will drop.

But with the economy the way it is the market pricing declining is pretty much a no brainer. The current president will release a stimulus package before he leaves office and it will get the economy all excited with a lot of ballooned economical information, but in reality almost every president does this before they leave office for multiple reasons and it doesn't do much good. So I would wait another 6 months before you invest but no later than 10 months.

Unless you have money to buy raw land and it is priced well in a great location. Then buy it now. Intrest rates are pretty good right now.

Depends on where you are. The housing market is the US has taken a huge hit in the last year or two and there is an 80% chance a recession is going to hit the US which could mean housing prices will drop further. This si good for a home-buyer, however. Just not a home-owner. It may be a good time to get in now, in fact I know in Scottsdale Arizona there are a ton of great deals. I am from Canada though, and up here there is quite the real-estate boom in a lot of cities. In Edmonton the last two years have seen gains of 30-50% annually and in Vancouver most people have doubled their equity in the last 2-3 years. This has made it difficult for first time home-buyers like myself because we've just been priced out of the market!
Hope this helps... I'm off to go pay rent. ;)

Depends where you live - the economy sucks right now in MA... the prices are down and so is the interest rate, but since lenders are having so much trouble with foreclosures you have to have nearly perfect credit to get a loan


ronidl76
It's a buyer's market.

Get as much as you can...don't be afraid to ask for incentives or come even 15K below asking price. A lot of people or very motivated to sell.

It's "buy" a home.


dreamgirl
buyer's market


raddy daddy
It is a buyers market if you have the money. If not just wait another 50 yrs or so to get the deal of a lifetime.


blinkblink
never a good day to buy a home as some might call it an investment that never depreciates.


Papa Smurf
Not good. This is a seller's market now. Wait until next year if you want to buy.
