Here's some fun charts for your review:Average Sale Price:http://mred.stats.10kresearch.com/infoserv/s-v1/bf...Months Supply:http://mred.stats.10kresearch.com/infoserv/s-v1/bf...Homes for Sale:http://mred.stats.10kresearch.com/infoserv/s-v1/bf...New Listings:http://mred.stats.10kresearch.com/infoserv/s-v1/bf...Under Contract:http://mred.stats.10kresearch.com/infoserv/s-v1/bf...As you'll see, while the average price is lowest in the winter, so too is the number of new listings and number of listings that go under contract.

I have Annual Income Growth 5% Annual PV Growth  5%  Annual Expenses 2% and Sales Expenses 0%

Turns out a wholesaler already had it under contract for a short sale and were just listing it to fulfil the formality.

It shouldn't be tied to the sale of the house.

But maybe that's not possible and I just need to cash out now for whatever the market can bear.The San Francisco Bay Area reached its peak acceleration in the velocity of sales price increases last year.

I know short sale can take sometime because I would need the bank to approve my offer also and their agent (niece) is willing to show me the home before it goes on market and they are open to working on deal.Should I pursue this deal and what would be a good strategy for this?
