They don't ring a bell when the market hits the bottom!

In this new era of caution in our consumerism, it is important to note that in a changing market, there isn't a real signal that the prices have hit their low point - it often only becomes apparent when prices begin to quickly rise - and at that point, the real opportunity is often lost.

Every day I'm out "preaching" the message of opportunity to people in my sphere of influence - THIS IS A FANTASTIC TIME TO BE A BUYER - BE IT FIRST TIME, MOVE UP OR INVESTOR!!!!!

Prices are low, interest rates are at historic lows, selection is still good. Buyers have time to shop, less pressure, more flexibility.

I hope the current trend of the media continues to report the golden opportunity that is here and now. People are generally uncertain about what is going to happen in the economy right now and the media has been fostering that fear through negative stereotyping in their reporting.

As the American economy and housing market begins to sort itself out, I can't help but be even more optomistic about our Canadian economic recovery.

I think the bell has tolled - did anybody else hear it?
