Price Expectations - Higher or Lower?

Based on information from the September Realtors® Confidence Index, a monthly survey with responses from over 3,600 Realtors®, 53 percent of respondents have expectations of constant or slightly rising prices for the next year. Price expectations are lower than earlier this year but also somewhat better than a year ago. Realtor® comments indicate that buyers continue to be cautious in their outlook while awaiting a more robust upturn in the economy.
