In the last two weeks, we’ve had 4 of our listings sell with multiple offers. The number of buyers that are out there right now has increased dramatically over the last month. In my opinion, this is a combination of the seasonal pattern in Western New York coupled with the $8000 and $6500 tax credits that are available. It’s actually gotten difficult to buy a house as inventory levels has shrunk dramatically over the last several weeks. All that’s left when you start to look for a property right now is leftovers that no one else wanted. The usual course of action for a buyer entering the market is to cruise through these properties as a teaser of a start and then wait to pounce on that new listing that comes up that matches their needs ad wants.
