But is this real or just a "mirage"?   Let's start by explaining that inflation is the increase in the overall price level of goods and services in an economy over time.

We all know the market has shifted, we hear it daily, and the media, as always, loves to make it sound like a crisis. The thing is, if it's not negative news, it will not sell. So here is the (not so negative) real estate market summary. For almost two years, we were in the deepest seller's market our country has ever faced.
