It’s one of the biggest hold ups some buyers have right now: “What if I buy, and home prices go down?”

Most sellers come into the market with one number in mind. And it’s often the one that costs them the most.

You’ve probably seen the headlines saying, “foreclosures are on the rise,” and maybe your mind jumped straight to 2008.

Selling your house this season? You’ve probably heard you should stage it before it hits the market.

For a lot of would-be first-time buyers, affordability is the thing that’s standing in the way.
