Home Sales Fall By Nearly Half

""The sky is falling!" Remember those words? You'd think Chicken Little was alive and well to listen to some people talk about our local housing market. This was the headline in today's local paper: Home sales fall by nearly half. The article went on to describe our slowing market.

Yes, we have swung from a strong seller's market to a strong buyer's market. But that's always the case with real estate. It ALWAYS swings back and forth.

Want some advice? If you're a Seller the good news is you've enjoyed great appreciation the last few years and should have a lot of equity to celebrate. Don't panic. If you need to sell just call a great agent, like myself (humbly), I'll help you through this profitably and painlessly.

If you're a buyer it's a great time to get the "pick of the litter" among houses. Interest rates are still historically low and sellers are motivated. I know of several great deals if you are interested.
