The market seems so unpredictable these days you are not sure of what to do. For investors ti has never been better. Prices and interest rates are at a historical low, but you need great credit and capital. If you need to sell your existing home to relocate, you will need to factor in a longer time table. If you are buying or selling short(getting less than you currently owe) more time is needed. If you are on the verge of loosing and values have dropped, there are programs from your current lender, and eventually from the federal government.
