Luck is with you if you are looking to buy a home in Tampa. There are tons of listed homes, and just not that many buyers on the market right now, and this means that you have the upper hand. Chances are that sellers in Tampa are willing to comply with your demands, including knocking off several thousands off the asking price, or even including all new appliances, just to sell their homes. The same is true for Miami, Kansas City, Missouri and Minneapolis. These three cities are currently favoring buyers, due to the high number of houses on the market and the low sales rate. The easiest way to determine whether your city is a great place to be a buyer or a seller is to compare housing supply vs. housing demand. If there are more houses on the market then there are sellers, then there is an overabundance, and prices can often be brought down. New York city is on the top 10 list of a great city to be a buyer-however this doesn’t mean that you can pick up a NYC apartment for ridiculously low prices. It simply means that in the NYC area, there are more sellers than buyers, and properties are staying on the market longer. The longer a property stays on the market, the more likely it is that the property’s price will decrease. While NYC housing will never be considered cheap, presently buyers have more bargaining power than sellers do. This can also be seen in Tampa-which tops the lists of best places to buy. The Tampa market has not bottomed out just yet, but buyers can rest assured that it is a resilent market, and will probably bounce back quickly. Tampa’s main problem is that so many of the properties are owned by investors. Chicago, which ranks 5th, is suffering from too many houses being built to fast. The housing market is simply growing faster than the demand.
