It’s a bad market because — well you know the reasons for that.  No need to focus on more negativity.

You know this is the right time for you to buy if:

  • you’ve been saving your money
  • you believe your job is fairly secure
  • you expect to own the property for at least 5-7 years and
  • you have a 6-8 month cash reserves in your emergency fund.

Is it your time?
