If your house is getting a bit small, or if your income has reached the point where you can afford, and want, a luxury home, now is a fantastic time to go ahead with your plans. Why? Because in today’s market for luxury homes, the buyers are in control. In many parts of the country there are more luxury homes on the market than there is demand for them.
