Recent Fathead Buys – Doah!
With so many buyers laying in wait for rock bottom real estate prices and patiently sitting on the sidelines, it is a wonder that some have thrown caution to the wind and purchased homes at inflated prices (and too high commissions). Is that sheer ignorance, total stupidity or did they just fall in love with a property and make an emotional decision with reckless abandon for value and appreciation?
