Signs of a changing market?

Recently two different people with interesting profiles have asked us to assist them with their real estate purchase. These buyers are different from each other in that one is purchasing a home and the other a condo.
However they are very similar in a few different ways.

Both buyers are analytical people. They have been planning to buy for the last two years but up until this point in time they didn't feel the market had fallen enough to their liking. In the meantime they have been tracking the market and researching properties on our web site. And now we are actively assisting them with their purchase.

Neither person would have thought of buying a year or two years ago, but they've decided now is the right time to jump in.

Are stories like these signs of a new market? Time well tell, but I view it as good news for the market when analytical consumers with an investor's mentality decide now is the time to buy.

Have a good Friday,
