Wednesday, April 23, 2008
It is happening again. Every three to five years the real estate market goes through another cycle and pessimism creeps into many. When the market is going down is it mostly caused by demand for new houses falling. The continuation in falling housing prices changes the psychology of home buyers so they stop buying. This process further decreases home prices and the real estate market.
Recent surveys by many consumer groups are reporting that consumer confidence is decreasing,
foreclosures are rising and homes fore sale are sitting on the market longer. This all plays into the psychology of home buyers. People do not want to purchase a home if the value is going to continue to decline.
So, what does this mean for the average
home seller? Well if you do not have to sell you are in good shoes. You can wait for another two to five years for the market to bottom, then wait for another three to five years for the market to come back up, then sell. So if you can hold out for seven or so years in your current home, you are in ok shape.
The major problem is life happens and for what ever reason people need to sell their house. Could be
divorce, lingering
foreclosure, job relocation, family issues, ready to
cash out of an investment, health issues, the list goes on.
