It seems that most agents are quite busy trying to help as many folks as possible find and sell homes prior to the April 30th deadline. Here in the Columbus area it has been a wild and crazy ride with multiple offers, price increases and vanishing inventory. It has been quite awhile since many of us have worked with such motivated buyers and sellers. All of this leads us to the quiet worry of "What Happens Next?

I am wondering this myself. Although I have noticed that with inventory moving, there are more sellers coming out of the wood work. Which is a good thing. I need regular sellers, the destroyed foreclosures are not everybodies cup of tea.
Karen, I agree that things may slow a bit but I am excited with the activity and agree that it will work out it always does..
Terri I agree. My listings are quite low due to the fact I was focusing so heavy on buyers. Over the past 30-40 days I have been working to get my listing back up. Regular listings would be nice!
