The last few years have seen the market bounce back sharply as home prices hover at or near their all time highs. The pull back of 2007-08 which saw prices fall up to 50% seems to have been forgotten and it has again become a seller’s market. It is still a good environment to buy though. Interest rates remain low and if you know where to look, there are plenty of opportunities to buy your dream business, investment, buy, sell, refinance and home.
