I read a local free real estate advertising magazine.

Every week, the editorial has a message that fits the latest data.

Every week, the conclusion is that NOW is the time to buy real estate.

If the market is strong, get in before it is too late. If the market is weak, good time to be a buyer. If the market is very weak, take advantage of those distressed sellers.

It really is amusing. It's more blatant than most self-interested publishing, but so much of what we read follows the same script in more subtle ways.

Yeah, I sometimes listen to a real estate show on Saturday on the radio, and the guy says basically the same things. It is always the right time to buy.
