Not to be a downer, but talk about life being so unfair. The white supremacist who killed that poor security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum made it to 88 years of age while Anne Frank, Charlie Parker, Mozart, Lou Gehrig, Martin Luther King, John Lennon, etc. etc. etc. all died so young.
“This is the conundrum that BHO and MM face. There is less and less supply and they may not find something to their liking. Only once the market has bottomed and started to move up will more supply come out. Additionally, rates will be higher. Oh dear, what to do????”
You make a great point Dave.
Might I also add, while no one has the perfect answer of when the bottom is and when you should buy I’d like to think that your house is something meant to live in and enjoy. Not just a chit that you cash in for the highest profit imaginable.
I say buy what you can easily afford when you find what you like. Stop killing yourself trying to time this to the millisecond. You could end missing out on your dream home and winding up with a higher interest rate to boot.
etson, DIBS having desert right now (2nd serving too)

“I gotta stop flushing those things down the toilet.

THL, very easy to tell when is the bottom. when you see prices go up, the bottom is right behind you.
Yes, agree totally with what you added, THL.
