New research from Realtor.com points toward the week of September 22 (AKA right now!) as the best time of the year to buy a home! During this week, home shoppers stand to benefit from the alignment of a number of key housing market factors, including reduced competition, more price reductions, lower listing prices, and more available inventory. Looking at it on a more local scale, the first week of fall was determined to be the single best week in which to buy in 77% of the nation's 53 major housing markets, leading Realtor.com to name it "the 'Black Friday' of homebuying"!
