I hear ppl say, "Now is a good time to buy a house!". Do you think that is true or hogwash?

Question

Specifically, the North East USA area.

Answer 1

If you're planning to live in the house for quite some time, it's almost always a good time to buy a house.  

Answer 2

invest?  Got lotta hot munee in yer hot hands dont no wot tu du with it?

Answer 3

The market is dropping rapidly.  If you could know when it would start rising , you could "time" the market.  No one predicted that it would drop, so who can predict when it will rise./

Answer 4

The market has droped considerably so if you were looking to buy then yes now would be an excellent time to buy but NOT sell. Just make sure you have someone who has either bought a house or specialize's in legalities read over the sellers proposal and that you are with a legitament broker. Check and double check everything! =) Good luck!
