The Cost of Waiting a Year
Waiting to buy a house is not a good strategy as the cost of the house is going to continue to rise with price appreciation and higher interest rates. The same house will cost you more next year.

“The housing market has bottomed. It's not
too late to get involved. I still think
buying a home is the best investment any individual can make. Affordability is still at
an all-time high. Buy a home and, if you can, buy a second home.”

Inventory of Single Family Houses by Month in Greater Richmond
The supply of houses is determined by the number of active listings divided by the monthly sales rate for the past year. After 2+ years of inventory between 8 and 10 months, inventory began to drop in the later months of 2011 and has continued to drop in 2012 and 2013. Inventory has had a slight rise in the past few months as the market is returning to a normal market of 5-6 months of inventory. Inventory now is less than half of what it was three years ago.

Single Family Inventory by Price Range
Source: CVRMLS data 8/26/13
The inventory of houses is lowest at the lower price points. As lower priced houses sell, the Sellers will move up to higher priced houses and the inventory of higher priced houses should start going down. There are clearly still challenges for Sellers at the higher price points. However, the number of sales at the higher price points is increasing. Houses in the higher price points must be competitively priced to sell.
