No doubt about it.  The housing market is soft right now.  With many in the US worried about Inflation, Mortgage Rates, and ongoing War - along with the normal seasonal softness that comes in the Fall time - demand for housing has fallen to historic lows.  That is not a bad thing for those that are still in the market.  It wasn't that long ago that Buyers had no power to negotiate.  There were plenty of other Buyers in the market and the supply could not keep up.  Prices soared, and many were left out.  With the tables turning, now is the time to take advantage of more stable pricing.  In the DMV, prices have moderated or even modestly fallen.  Markets can turn quickly.  For those that can see past the higher interest rates (date the rate) - you may be able to find a home that brings instant equity.  If you need advice in guiding through this market, don't hesitate to call us today - 410-271-9499.  We can give advice on fair pricing, help you understand your affordability, and negotiate a deal that is fair to all.
