Default still looking

We have been here for almost a month looking at new and resale home. The prices for resales are 20 to 30 percent lower than a year ago. (some are higher but very few looking at them). "Village Property' sales seems to be pushing us toward new homes, which appear to be less than resales even when taking the higher bond into consideration. Multi-List are telling us to make an offer and that owners are taking 4-6 percent under asking price. Many Many for Sale by Owner. We have not found the perfect home for us, but we will be back!
