More on the debt threat, I am thinking that the gov't will probably do something quite soon.
From watching the market the last few years I will make some half @ssed predictions. Jan and Feb will have more buyer activity than sellers, creating a bit of a sellers market and possible price rises. Things start to even out in March and by May/June things will swing back to a buyers market for a bit.
That is if the gov't doesn't do anything about people who can't afford to enter the market taking monster mortgages.
wow is it new year's prediction time already? looking back at mine from last year:
"
I can't see the market shifting at all yet since almost all sales are OVER asking. Seems like an extreme sellers market still to me. I predict this time next year we will have prices 5-10% higher, with prime higher by .5%, and inventory 20% higher...we shall see."
Not too bad. Need a bit to think about this years, but it will be decidedly more bearish.
