Yeah I am in the same boat as you atm Bre... housing here in S. Fla has increased 20% over this time last year. A lot of that is due to how depressed the market was, and it is part of an adjustment. But there are already people starting to scream "bubble" down here... friggin' crazy eh?
Never listen to your realtors either though - for them, there is never a bad time to sell your house, and never a bad time to buy. I recently read an internal email at Keyes Realty that I was accidentaly copied on, where it is now a good time to sell your house, but it is also a good time to buy, because "you snooze you lose". You can't have both - it can only be neutral at best. I still think it is largely a buyer's market at the moment. I don't think we've quite corrected the under valued properties down here just yet (certainly not in single family homes. We might be there for condos though).
Where are you looking in Bre? (and when did you say you were headed down here again?)
