| Market Commentary Provided by Top Agent I think our market has declined at a slower rate than the national market primarily because we don’t have huge price increases even during great market conditions. Our property values remain pretty consistant. What we are seeing is the negative impact that the national news media has on buyers, causing them to be afraid to step out into the buying market. Again I would have to say that we need to do a better job at informing the public that it is a great time to buy a home in Wichita and surrounding communities. Interest rates are fantastic and if you remain within you economic comfort zone, you have the ability to purchase a home that will appreciate in value at a steady rate. |
