For instance when the prices are at a peak houses might sit on the market for a long time; you can often make a very low offer on such a house and it might be accepted. If the prices are low you might see quite a few that refuse to drop their price and therefore sit on the market. After a year or two of sitting on the market, many sellers will respond to an offer below what they would have rejected the year before. Also, being in a position where you don't have to sell your house quickly can help you get the best price for it. | |
