Some Housing Update: Not All Pessimism

With the housing inventory on the market, it's not a time when buyers have to turn to FSBO's to find just the right house, contrary to the photo in the New York Times article. Buyers and sellers continue in a standoff while sellers are having to adjust to not being in total control as they have for the past few years. Though prices are basically holding, sales volume has decreased in most local zip codes, down by over 26% in 90803 compared to this time last year. Mortgage rates are still lower, while it may take the rest of the year to move the rest of this current inventory. This is definitely a good time for buyers, as they can now take adequate time to select their next home. See www.juliahuntsman.com for search for Long Beach and Orange County properties.
