As foreclosure and short sale inventory continues its decline and buyer demand continues to rise, buyers are coming back in force into what used to be our bread-and-butter housing market: the traditional home seller. One concern has been whether buyers who had grown accustomed to the bargains offered by foreclosures would be willing to purchase a more expensive home listed by a traditional seller. As recent months have shown, when buyers have no alternative, they will buy traditional seller properties.
