Buyers are very interested in the $8,000 / $6,500 tax credit which is spurring interest in the market. This seems to be especially true for the under $250,000 price range.


In General, interest rates are at or near generational lows, assuming you have good credit. Now is a great time to buy, while activity is starting up and there is time to get your low low low interest rate locked in.
