Q. We are planning to buy some time this coming year. It’s kind of our 2015 goal. We are in a month-to-month lease so we have some flexibility on timing. When is the best time to buy in your opinion?

Q. One of the criteria we have been using in evaluating homes on the market is the number of days they have been listed. What’s puzzling is that we are finding that the numbers vary from one resource to the next. Zillow, Redfin and the listing updates our realtor provides are all different.

Q. It seems like the real estate inventory is slowing down in Arlington, at least in the 3-plus bedroom single family homes under $700,000 my husband and I have been looking at. I presume that is because we are heading into winter. Am I right, and when will the inventory pick up again? I’m pregnant and due May 1 so hoping the answer is before April!

Q. My fiancé and I are in the market to buy our first home. We currently rent in Arlington and are wondering how we should go about looking for a home from a timing perspective. Is it better to shop a few months before your lease is up so there is a clean break? If we buy a house and have six months left on our lease, what is the best way to get out of it? What are the best times of year to buy? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Q. I saw one of those real estate TV shows the other day where the buyers were allowed to live in the house for several days before they completed the purchase. It was a great way to test drive the house if you will. Is it possible to arrange this on a purchase in the Arlington area?
