Positivity on the upswing when it comes to housing

According to the Fannie Mae February 2012 National Housing Survey, the results found that nationally, concerns about  housing are beginning to lessen. 

The survey found that on average,  28% of respondents expected home prices to increase over the next 12 months.

In numbers that seem to confirm a more positive outlook on homeownership, the number of those who thought it was a good time to sell rose 3%, to its highest level in over a year. In addition 65% of those polled said that if they were going to move up they would buy rather than rent.

All signs seem to point to a market that still has plenty of options for both buyers and sellers alike and that is always positive news!
