True.. Believe it or not...The real estate market is not bad at all...
The real estate market is similar to the stock market there are negative externalities(such as the media) that bring the market down just like the stock market...
The market is just leveling off from the
HIGH prices of the recent when it was a sellers market. Three to four years ago, prices were increasing by 30% annually and people were buying these over priced homes.

There is a saturation in the market because sellers expect to get prices of years past and if a listing is priced above market value, it will
not move..
My prediction:
I predict a big boost in home sales for the first quarter of 2009....When we get Bush's monkey ass out of office.
YES WE CAN!!!!
