The National Association of Realtors is forecasting an improvement in the mortgage market, which could result in more buyers in early 2008. I don't know if they are telling Realtors like me this news to cheer me up (I'm actually already cheerful; I really enjoy my work...), but the vice president of research for the association says that nationally the housing market for this year is the 5th highest for existing home sales.
I hate sounding like a negative person all the time on this blog, but that does not consider the individual market in central Florida. However, there has been a reduction in new home building, which can help stabilize the market.
All in all, this could be good news for current sellers, and will hopefully result in the pent-up demand leading to action in the next couple of months.
