Remember a few years back when sellers held all the power and buyers were stuck offering way over asking or waiving inspections just to get a chance at the house? In many markets, those days are behind us.

One of the biggest reasons buyers are still sitting on the sidelines is because they think home prices are going to come down.

A lot of people who want to move are telling themselves the same thing: "Maybe I'll just wait until later this year once things calm down."

If affordability has been the biggest thing standing between you and a home, there's a little good news.
