Ray Martin
weighed in on the Saturday Edition about whether buying is indeed the way go to now.
Answer:
Yes, it is, and for a number of reasons. For one thing, housing prices are declining just about nationwide. Plus, mortgage rates are at aserious low. Rates on a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage are at a level we won't see again in our lifetime. Finally, if you buy before December 1, you'll get an$8,000 tax credit if you're a first-time buyer. For all those reasons, there'sreally never been a better time to go shopping for real estate.
