Speaking about my own situation, our house is for sale.

There are lots of good ones to choose from around here, and I’d sure like to do my part and buy one. But I have to sell first. I think a lot of people are in my situation. There’s a logjam, and when it loosens up, things will be better.

Find one you like and see if those sellers want to buy yours. That is what is happening in my area, southern Oregon. Lots of buyers, except they all happen to be sellers.

Part of the logjam is no first time buyers, because of credit issues, and no California buyers, but the biggest contributer to the slow down are sellers living in la,la land, who will not let their homes go for less than what they perceived it was worth last year.
