July is the high season in Real Estate. The same holds true this year.  The more interest rates rise the less bang you'll have for your buck. We are seeing this with very slight declines in average cost of a home.  However,  we are STILL in one of the best real estate markets of our lifetime - especially, if you're a seller.
