When few properties in the Jackson area are selling, it is hard to get a read on the direction of the market. Sellers are for the most, still holding on to expectations of selling at 2007 prices. Buyers want deals, and there is a standoff.
If your a buyer, dont be afraid to make your offer. No venture, no gain. Sellers, if your circumstance dictates you need to sell, get real and drop your price and move on. I have seen markets like this before. Usually the offer you have now will be better than the one you get in 3 - 6 months. Consider the inventory level. Is it likely to shrink or expand. If you slash your price and sell and stil lhave a profit, dont cry over the fact that you did not sell at the top. Such is life.
Agents: Thanks for all your feed back.
Good luck.
