Lots of inventory on the market, so you can take your time and comparison shop.
Prices are low. Even if we are not at the bottom of the market, you don't have to time it perfectly to get a great deal. You, unlike me, will not be buying at the peak - you KNOW that.
Interest rates are crazy low. You will have the comfort of a low low interest rate for the next 30 years. If we have serious inflation, interest rates may take off.
But what do I know, I'm just some dweeb on an anonymous message board.
