Not here in PA. It depends on the area. Here, especially in south-central PA where I am, everyone from NY, NJ and MD are moving here because their states' taxes are killing them. We're still booming here.

I bought a home 18 months ago when there was still a surplus of homes for sale, so prices were low and so were interest rates. I bought at the absolute perfect time because supply and demand has made prices go up a lot since then, which is GOOD for realtors. Also, interest rates have gone up about 1/2 point from the all-time lows we saw. There is a LOT of new construction, but the prices of prebuilt homes are still rising. My home's market value has risen 15-20% since I bought it! Great equity earned.
