Looked at 5 houses

Seen one we both liked, one that I loved but fiancee wasn't too thrilled about, but talk about seeing owners who were just thrilled that someone was even looking at their house.

Only five? The wife and I probably looked at 80 before we made on offer. If we'd been clients we would have been fired!

I think owners are always happy to see buyers, no matter what the market is like.

We looked for eight months before we made an offer. And don't compromise too much (you have to live there as well). Assuming you're in it for the long haul, that petty annoyance today will be the bane of your existence in five years time.

Looking at multiple properties is the name of the buying game. How are you to know what you are willing to negotiate over or not if you haven't taken the time to survey the inventory? I encourage my clients to take a look at as many homes as it takes until they are ready to make an offer.

Good luck ghennis. Glad to hear that there is at least one other man in this country that doesn't let his wife/SO keep his b*lls in her purse.

Don't do it, ghennis. I too was tempted by the moans of starving sellers, but I fought the temptation and the attempts by cheerleading marauders to woo me into a depreciating investment. You can do it!

I didn't mean to make it sound as if I'd lost faith, we HAVE NOT ruled out the possibility of renting.

' I encourage my clients to take a look at as many homes as it takes until they are ready to make an offer.'

You should be advising people to wait and not buy in a declining market.

LOL so true. If I were religious, I'd say a special prayer at night asking God to protect the few realtors out there that are legitimately warning potential buyers about the realities of the market, not NAR talking points.

Tonight I was thinking: I didn't spend 22 years studying to live by some one else's rules. I know what's coming and I want to be in a place that I feel safe. No rentals in my area provide that. I've waited 2 years and now I'm buying.

"welcome to the light" what kind of nonsense is that? ecomomic decisions made by pure emotion... thats what caused the bubble.

cabin: that sounds like nonsense too: there are homes available for rent in virtually every type of neighborhood possible in america; Guaranteed wherever you buy, there will be neighbors renting in the same area... If you want to buy go ahead, god knows tons of sellers and realtors are wishing there were more of you; however, making the decisions based on your thinking that somehow your becoming grownup, or that it enhances your personal safety are pretty weak thinking...

i see those 22 years of education have left you quite erudite and eloquent!

Truly a credit to your educational institutions...

IF you think that thieves break into rentals more than owned homes, you are even stupider then the average college student!
