As a buyer shopping for a home, what does this mean for you, and how can you best navigate through this process? You are hopefully working with a local Realtor® to assist and guide you, but even so, the more you know, the better you can make the important decisions when the time comes.

After 5 years of decreasing prices, and seeing some great buys come and go, we are noticing some significant changes in our market. The major changes are Declining Inventory and Multiple Offers. For a while now we have been talking a lot about trying to recognize if we are at the bottom of the market.
