Before you post too many additional times, just be aware that this type of posting violates Zillows rules on self promotion. Additionally the posting of your phone number is also a violation of that same rule.

If you wish to promote your business, Zillow will be happy to sell you some advertising space.

Thanks!

It is simple the buyer is not ready to buy. It could be financial or emotional. We all know the home price has dropped a lot since 2005.
However, if the buyer either don't have down payment, cannot qualify the loan or waiting for the price to drop or the job is not stable.

I always believe when the time the right, the buyer will buy home and seller will sell.

Grace, I call B.S. on you.

We all know the home price has dropped a lot since 2005.

Wrong! We all know prices have gone up a huge amount since 1997.

Most of us also know that prices are dropping. We have also learned that buying in the past couple of years has created financial nightmares for many.

I have a down payment. I could qualify for a loan (but will not). Knowing the real price history of real estate even inflation adjusted shows that buying now in most areas would be a very painful financial mistake.

Low interest rates now are only propping up house prices much higher than they should be. A simple 2% interest rate increase will remove 23.7% buying power. That will bring house prices back down closer to where they should be. Just imagine what would happen to house prices if interest rates reach 15% which is very possible.
