During the month of November there were 84 homes that sold in Bremerton. That is 16 homes more than in October. I am sure this surge is partially due to the first time home buyer tax credit deadline. Even thought the tax credit was extended there were a large amount of home buyers that couldn't wait for the government to make up their mind. These Bremerton homes actually had a transfer of home ownership. Contracts complete and Lender funds available the home buyer and seller signed all of their documents as escrow prepared the closing packages. Once all the I's were dotted and the T's crossed there where deeds recorded at the Kitsap County courthouse that transferred the property into the new home owner's name!

What do these numbers mean? Is it a good time to buy? Is it a good time to sell. It all depends on your individual situation. I would rather buy in a buyers market and I would rather sell in a buyers market if I have to buy another home with the proceeds. I am a fan of the NORMAL market - everyone can feel more comfortable and real estate transactions are not as stressful.

Our son recently got out of the Army. He was an Intelligence Analyst and served 4 years and 10 months with two tours of Iraq. He actually signed up for 4 years but got the stop lost and ended up doing an extra tour of Iraq and served an extra 10 months. We were very proud of his attitude about the extra time in the Army.
response was I'm sorry but this is becoming a big problem. This is obviously not an isolated incident. I don't even know where to tell him to go for help from here. We are helping him financially as he is totally out of money but he does not like having to ask for our help.
