As we start the new year with what seems to be optimism in the market. Buyers and sellers should be more confident in buying or selling a home.

First Sellers, there are still a lot of homes on the market in various stages of foreclosure. Either pre foreclosure, bank owned or the banks are trying to work with the owner until the home sells. There are also the seller who are selling for the normal reasons, relocation, larger or smaller home needs. For what ever reason for selling if you don't have to sell now wait to put your home on the market until the inventory is stabilized.

  Second Buyers, It is a buyers market. There are many great deals on the market now if your have the cash to buy the home or you are pre approved to purchase a home. Remember the homes are AS IS  and where is, can you afford those conditions. Working with buyers who are only looking for the greatest deal may not see those condition which may hurt their investment in the future. Is the home on the market at a reduced price because it would not sell at the normal price even in a good market.
