“It's an unbelievable market. I've had sellers call and say they want to double the asking rice for their homes. I'm sure I'm going to make a lot of enemies, but that just shouldn't be. I want business but I don't want bad business. I won't take their listing.”
Barbara Dixon
“Many of our hot housing markets are transitioning from a sellers' market to a buyers' market.”
David Lereah
“In competitive markets where two offers are presented to the seller, the one with 20 percent down looks better than one with a smaller down payment. But sellers still tend to drift toward someone with a larger down payment.”
Eric Cunliffe
“The price range of $350,000 to $450,000 is getting very compressed. The sellers with the smaller homes in this range are going to have a real problem selling.”
Cliff Lloyd
“It's all market-driven. The price that the buyer and seller willingly meet on is what we look at.”
Pat Donovan
“Someone can create a market by adjusting the price. I've had several sellers make big price adjustments. Most have been in the 5% to 10% range.”
Ken Neufeld
“The real estate market may fall further. Buyers remain reluctant to buy, while sellers remain anxious to avoid crystallizing their large paper losses.”
