We bought our house in October. We looked @ 15 houses on a Friday and nothing spured our interested. We gave it a rest for a day and that night our agent called us to say we needed to look at a house that next day. The house had just gone on the market on Sat. We look at it on Sun AM and had an offer accepted on Sun night. We had a GREAT agent. He read us like a book...he knew my taste exactly. This house had my name written all over it. It was not offered as turn-key but we made an offer to the owners for the furniture. They were moving back north and needed to get rid of everything so we ended up with furniture, household contents, tools and even the golf cart. Everything was in excellent condition! After the closing we walked in with our suitcase to find an emaculately clean house, fresh sheets folded neatly on the bed, wine on the table and liquor in the closet. What more could one ask for!!!

So as was stated above by someone else - "The best time to buy is when you find what you want when you feel you're ready to buy." AMEN to that statement!!!
