When to buy real estate!

I often get these questions/responses from people considering a real estate purchase:
"How do I know when to buy?"
"I'm waiting for the bottom...."
"How do I know when it is the best deal?"

I recently read an article about real estate investing that addresses these questions and gives a good investing perspective for potential buyers. See link below to read article!

Also remember real estate is local- we are far better off in NC than many other states.

(BTW: I always recommend buying for the long term! Purchasing to suit your needs whether it is a property for primary residnece or an investment property.)
