So many people have been waiting the market to slow down from last year, some of them have the down payment to purchase this spring.3 z% L$ I, c% n$ l! U* I! B8 k* y
However, they are so afraid of the high price then. Now they have missed a great chance to have their first property this year.5 T. W) v- C3 s+ h" R
It is always better to buy when it is on the way up than it is on the way down.
) c' z& s" G1 h( R4 jFor example, the condo average price is around $240,000 this March, now it is $270,000.. ? T f6 V6 c/ B
Say, it is at its prime now even though there is no sign in the condo section yet. Can any body guess, when it will come down to $240,000.8 N/ C% p8 {- p1 Z3 Y+ c$ E
I will give it another 6 months if the market go down x months in a row. because house is not like stocks, it cannot go down too fast. B* x& Z+ A; }2 v& `
If you have purchased that unit this March, you will get the interest rate at 5.0. If you get it now, you may get 5.6. If you get it in 6 months,% n* b9 w* p {4 n
your mortgage interest rate may have reached 6%.# o5 \3 {) ^( d8 ^1 j' ^8 d
House market will not go down if the interest rate is low, so if you want to buy a low price house when it is over priced, you will have bear the high interest rate.+ h, s% M& k, \ T$ _
/ Y- l K3 [9 l$ Q& n! {OK, if you bought this March, $240,000, interest rate 5%. Best deal, total interest in 5years $60,000 Total:$300,000
1 r! O2 x& Z! d aif you buy it now, $270,000, interest rate 5.6%. interest(4 years and 6 months) $68040 plus 6 months rent = $6000 (you may not get the same

if you buy it next March, $240,000, interest rate 6%. interest(4 Years) $57,600 plus 12 months rent = $12000 Total: $30,96003 V, v/ V0 z& L. w5 f' }$ R
We can see what is the best, when it is on its way up, worst?when it is prime(peak).! b6 b; D4 O1 o
6 s8 V2 B' Q$ uSo, those who have waited, may have to wait another 6 months. However, who can say the price in next March will be $240,000.
( _& S; h& `2 E" C1 hCannot it be $270,000? Cannot it be $280,000?0 N- d2 A+ i) g# @: [6 ~
So, when to buy, it is always a puzzle. If everybody know when to buy, what is the world like? cannot imagine.
J5 `% i, q" Z# \/ A2 c3 \$ Z/ CFor me as a property investor, I will always tell everyboy, it is a good time to buy,

' w! X- H4 r7 x& R- Pthen they will switch to my line and try to "HouHou" to push the market up.
