According to the Wall Street Journal's article on April 27th, Stunned Buyers Finding the Bidding Wars are Back, by Nick Timiraos, "From California to Florida, many buyers are increasingly competing for the same house."  Timiraos reports, "Competitive bidding in the current environment isn't producing huge price increases or leaving sellers with hefty profits, as occurred during the housing boom.  Still, the bidding wars caused by tight inventory provide the latest evidence that housing demand is starting to pick up after a six-year-long slump."

Corporate Coldwell Banker realizes that the savvy sales associates in the real estate industry will be scurrying to build up an inventory of listings to satisfy a growing demand.
