The Reality of Realty

By Debbie • March 12th, 2010

The reality of realty is that searching for positive news about real estate is not that difficult these days. Foreclosures have dropped in certain areas of the Country. Some areas are showing rebounds, having an increase in sales volume and home values. The available hoReal estate that is priced right is sellingme buyer tax credits and low mortgage rates are boosting home sales. Even the drop in January sales appears temporary because, after-all, the tax credit expires on April 30th and people will start pounding the pavement in search of the new home to use it on.

Real estate that is selling in most places is selling because the price is right. People are buying real estate that they view as priced appropriately. If the home is affordable it will sell. The real estate that is not selling is real estate that is owned by people who are having a hard time letting go of what they think their home is worth or who will lose their shirt if they sell at the correct price. The reality of realty is that home values are not nearly what most people thought they would be when they bought their homes at the height of the market.
