"Cape May County market is doing fine"
"The market is great"
What a couple of stupid statements. Go back to waitressing or bar tending. OC had 10 houses sold the first week in August with 1000 for sale. 100 weeks inventory "fine"? Plus 36 taken off the market. We are not fine, we are in a dropping market that has a long long way to go. Actually 13 years. Here is an article for you from Economists in a NY Times article:
"In Ocean City, N.J., for example, inflation-adjusted house prices rose about 1.6 percent a year from 1988 through 2002. Compared with what this rate would predict, the city’s houses in the first quarter of this year were overvalued by 51 percent. Over the previous year, they had fallen 0.6 percent; at this pace, Ocean City house prices will be at the right level in about 13 years."

It is up to us as realtors to let the public know that the real estate market is always a local thing. Some markets may be declining, but it always depends on where you are. Cape May County's market is doing fine. If you are a buyer , the market is great! As for sellers, if you price your house right it will sell. And unless you just bought it, you will make a profit over what you paid for it.

Well i dont know what you all are talking about, but I just bought a 3 bedroom home in bayside village less than a block to the bay and paid 165,000 for it. I intentionally waited knowing that this same house would have sold 3 years ago for aprrox 250, - 300,000 so in my opinion the real estate market has come down tremendously.

YOU WANT THE REAL STORY? FIRST, PEOPLE DO NOT MAKE 10 TIMES WHAT THEY MADE 10 YEARS AGO.. BUT HOMES ARE 10 TIMES HIGHER. AMERICANS DO NOT MAKE ENOUGH MONEY TO AFFORD A HOME PERIOD !!!! ..TELL THEM THE REAL STORY, A $400,000 HOME OR CONDO WITH NOTHING DOWN WILL DOUBLE WITH INTEREST TO $800,000 AND WITH TAXES 5-6-7 THOUSAND A YEAR.. UPKEEP, INSURANCE ETC,, NOW YOU ARE UP TO 1 MILLION YOUR PAID FOR A 3 BEDROOM 2 BATH CONDO WITH NO POOL, ITS 30 YEARS LATER AND NOW YOU HAVE TO BORROW OFF YOUR HOME , BECAUSE IT NEEDS NEW BATHROOMS, NEW KITCHEN, NEW ROOF, NEW HEATING SYSTEM, NEW RUG AND FLOORING,, SO WHAT DO YOU HAVE? NOTHING !!!!!!
A WORTHLESS POORLY BUILT NIGHTMARE, AND MAYBE WORTH 200,000.00 IN 30 YEARS.. THATS REALITY, IF YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO THE REALTORS AND LIVE IN FAIRY TALE LAND.. BE MY GUEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These are the same idiots that lied to us and said 2008 Q1 sales were up 4%. They were caught by a watchdog group, the truth was sales were DOWN 30%. This story isn't news, this is advertising, and the Herald should treat it as such.

Ok, Realtors, you need to understand that PRICES ARE TOO HIGH for people to afford. Enough with the nonsense and lies about "every market is local" and "the bottom is near". PRICES ARE TOO HIGH and will continue to fall until they come back in line with the fundamentals.
