Once banks start loosening up and lending the demand will increase. Economic news seems to be improving too so demand should increase. The supply over the next 3-5 years should still be much more than the demand which means field day for savvy investors. My hope is that the market stays at the bottom for 5 years so we can cleanup. That is not realistic but there will be tremendous opportunities for the next 5 years. Hopefully we will never see a boom so dramatic or a bust so brutal again. Hey Kevin,

The home for sale in Portland Oregon are starting to level off and in many neighborhoods there is an incline of sold homes. As you mentioned, the foreclosure rate is huge and short sales are popping up everywhere, and the graph you provided is cool. The tax credit extension will hopefully work out the housing market. Thanks again, this was a good read. Kevin Levy M Realty Kevin's latest Blog: http://relocationtoportland.com/2009/10/31/irvington-realtor/ Thanks for the nice article.

Now that my wife and I are finally back in position to acquire properties again, it's a sigh of relief to us that it's not too late to take advantage of the historic buying period we're in. Best wishes to all of you! This is especially encouraging news for me as I’ve been out of the hunt for property for about the last year or so due to volatile personal issues.
