Now is the ideal time to buy property under the "normal" market price. Why would anybody want to sell his property cheap?

Because:

• maybe he or she is moving abroad and want to finalise a sale before taking off
   
• maybe he or she can no longer pay the banks and is obliged to sell.

These are so called motivated sellers and these days there are a lot of them due to the global economical crisis.

Now why don’t you see these houses advertised with their low prices? Because:

• as soon as somebody hears about a good housing deal, the house will be snapped up or
   
• motivated sellers don’t want to show their cards, so you will have meet the seller in person and ask the right questions.

The latter only works when you meet the seller in real life.

I do get a lot of calls about houses I am selling to ask for the price or why I want to sell. My answer is then: did you have a look at the house already? And if they say no, then I invite them to do so. This way I get rid of people that are not serious about doing business.
