Conclusion

The
Solitude condo market
currently favors
buyers. The
extraordinary high
number of days on

high inventory
should persuade
sellers to
compromise with
buyers. With
pressure on the real
estate market
expected to continue
through 2009,
sellers should be
anxious to get the
price they can now
before more price
erosion occurs. |
