BRIAN HEAD REAL ESTATE MARKET There are good deals and bad deals in any market. The key is to do so with proper understanding of the circumstances and with an eye toward the future.

Why wait? The opportunities that exist in this market demonstrate that there may not be better to buy, and the results are wholly dependent on the ways in which the transactions are negotiated. While the buyer has better control in a buyer\'s market, that is so geographically specific as to make almost all regional and certainly national statistics almost meaningless. Given properties are subject to differing features specific to the properties themselves and the particular geography under consideration. Even in markets with decided weaknesses, where short sales and foreclosures exist, buyers often prefer an owner-occupied home whose owner has been responsible for the house and its condition. Thus, consult a professional, ensure that you have the best possible analysis. Many bargains are disappearing in many markets, especially at the higher end.

The time to buy really is now.
