What does this opinion on housing mean for us? It means we don't make money because you will all start to reconsider buying a house and, in turn, won't need window treatments yet. But when it comes to looking out for your best interest, if we can help you make a better decision for your life, that's payment enough. The economy is still rough. It's not going to get better immediately. The best thing I can recommend is to do as much research as possible before you make a large purchase. If it's a product, read reviews and seek advice from people with detailed knowledge of the products available. Price is not always the determining factor. If you have to pay a little more to know that you're getting better quality and will eventually get more life out of the product, it's probably the better bet.
If you're looking to buy a house, make sure you know what the neighborhood is like, make sure the house has the essentials you are looking for and make sure the price is right. As most Realtors will tell you, finding the acceptable balance between price, location and the house itself is the key to pulling the trigger.
Happy Chanukah!
