The other question we have is...when is the best time to buy? We are flexible and can buy immediately or wait. Are there more homes on the market in season or off season? Is there a difference in price in season vs off season? Thanks in advance because I know I'll get a lot of good advice.
I made six trips to TV before I bought. I looked at homes each time I was down. I checked home prices on a regular basis also through the internet. I did not see any significant increases/decreases based on the time of year.
