JWM in SD, wow, you’re a very good psychic. Not only can you predict the market but you can also predict people’s emotion and desire. I know people who bought at the peak of the last market, never checked in with the RE market again and still living in the same house they bought 18 years ago and have it almost paid off. To some, it’s more important to have permanent home to raise a family than saving a few thousands.

WTB made that decision with his wife and they’re the only one that matter. Good luck to you wtb. No one know about your circumstances more than you, so if you think it’s OK to buy after checking all the facts, then more power to you.

I agree 8 weeks is not long enough to make any noticeable difference. Might as well start shopping now.
