Every Charlottesville, VA Realtor I know is saying they are busier than they have been in quite awhile.  Although it hasn’t resulted in alot of contracts being written, most seem to think it is just a matter of time.  My feeling is that it is still about price and sellers have to keep that keenly in their mind.  There are buyers out there but they want to make sure the price is right.  An article in the Wall Street Journal seems to echo that point.  http://online.wsj.com/article_email/SB123431356988570855-lMyQjAxMDI5MzE0NzMxMTczWj.html

At least in the Central Virginia area, For some, now might be a good time to consider taking advantage of low interest rates and sellers being realistic about price
