The inventory of homes has many Short Sales and Foreclosures, which has been putting pressure on home prices. Detached property levels have declined. The condo market continues in general to display a slower recovery with financing issues creating a larger drag on that segment with what appears to be more stringent requirements.

This is a great time for buyers with more inventory to choose from. Want a Market Snapshot of your neighborhood? http://www.homeinsight.com/Widget/default.asp?ZZQWAJ7F40EP
