Price cuts are everywhere

In the land of price reductions, there are no laws. Some home sellers choose to reduce their asking price by a few thousand while others shave off millions. As of this month, more than one in four homes have cut their asking price at least once – totaling an impressive $28.4 billion. But what’s in it for you? More house for your money, that's what. http://info.trulia.com/index.php?s=43&item=73" style="color: rgb(0, 102, 204); font-family: arial; font-size: 12px; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal;" target="_blank"> Read Trulia's October price reduction report.
