That was worth reading and I think that not Americans but all are today trying to buy real estate as it become a good and convenient option for every class of people, Today the other things as you said are so unsafe and people are afraid of investing any where else.

Yes, things are getting changed, Nomad you are right seller should get equally good deal when they turns around and makes their home purchase. I think that that will be very true, but at the same time bit tough.

These are really awesome ways I really love that, The option of buying in depressed areas are worth and very logical option I would say that it can be helpful in long term. Good job done by you.
