Waking up in spring, busting to buy a property by Christmas, is like
waking up on Christmas morning excited to open a present.
You’re pumped, your expectations are high and you can’t wait to see what

seems like a sound time to buy.
With all these forces working together the next six weeks are shaping up
to be the most interesting chapter of 2024.
