Poll Says It's a Good Time To Buy!
 

Now is a good time to buy, say 59 percent of those surveyed in an Associated Press-AOL Money & Finance poll.

But long-term confidence in the housing market doesn't keep some home owners from having concerns about the current situation.

  • 67 percent think it is harder for first-time home buyers than it was five years ago.
  • 60 percent say they will delay buying a home for two years.
  • 11 percent are certain or very likely to buy soon.
  • 40 percent believe housing prices will rise soon.
  • 35 percent think the prices of homes in their neighborhood are about right.
