Even though the national press is still selling doom and gloom,
here in our local Tampa Bay area we are starting to see a positive shift in the market. Be it ever so slight it is still a shift. Here in the Carrollwood area I am seeing about a 25-30% drop in prices which is starting to spur that rare breed of buyer that either has a stable job or has cash on hand that can now buy that property that was out of reach a few years ago. Couple that with low interest rates and some buyers find it a deal they can’t pass up. Nationally I am hearing a recovery is not expected until 2010.
I invite your comments.
