We saw this back in the Spring and now, according to realtor.com, at least, the best time to buy a home this Fall will be October 1-7when you will save more than $15,000 compared with the summer peak of %445,000.
Again, according to realtor.com, there will be 17% more homes for sale (both new listings and homes already on the market).
So, if you have a house in mind, maybe the time to act is (almost) now.
