Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
Out for a few days and just now seeing all the real estate posts... Is the Phoenix area the only place where it's still a buyer's market? We had to aggressively price our house and come down 5% from that. We managed to sell in just over a month, but it wasn't easy.
