Things are looking up for re sale homes in Portland and Beaverton. I am noticing more activity on the market and while prices are still decreasing for home sellers, the number of people who are making qualified offers is improving. Now is still a terrific time for first time home buyers who want to take advantage of the tax credit which is still available through June 2009.
