The Bottom of the Market

Industry experts are starting to speculate whether we are at the bottom of the housing market. These same experts also say that we won't know for sure when the bottom of the market is until 6 months after it bottoms out. However, I'm sensing we are getting close. And by close I'm guessing next spring. For the first week in well over a year I have noticed that the "Notice of Defaults" for Sacramento County has dropped from the 500-600 range to the 200-300 range, and that's good news.

We still have issues with people qualifying for loans, but word is getting out that to get a house, you need to save money and fix your credit. Those buyers who are serious and have been saving money, will soon be poised to get a great deal on a home. Call me :0)!
