The bottom in housing - Fueling demand

Posted by daltonsbriefs / Category:

Looks like July was indeed the bottom, and demand is increasing in all regions for homes. This will take a good six months to begin the process of reducing inventories so prices can begin to recover.

If you are thinking of buying, do so now at the bottom, you won't want to miss it.

Pending home sales index rises 7.4% in August: NAR

NAR says pending home-sales activity rose because of buyers taking advantage of low prices and affordable interest rates. August's results show an "unleashing of pent-up demand" before the credit crisis worsened in September, Yun said.
