Economy is Recovering
Housing market has been showing some interesting signs lately - multiple offers in the first couple of days; offered price increasingly higher than the listing price; fewer contracts falling apart before settlement, etc... It is no surprise that Forbes publishes an article suggesting that US recession is over. http://www.forbes.com/2009/05/04/recovery-indicators-unemployment-opinions-columnists-recession.html?partner=commentary_newsletter
It is definitely the right time to buy: still a large inventory of houses on the market, reasonable prices and a low interest rate. And my strong belief is that the best investment is into real estate located at a walking distance to a metro station. Need to look at houses? Call me. But.... please get a preapproval letter first.:)

Courthouse Metro
There are 42 properties for sale around the metro, and only 5 are townhouses - the rest are condo units. The cheapest townhouse is 750k and the most expensive is 970k.
Two townhouses are in BROMPTONS AT ROSSLYN and the monthly HOA fee is over $200...
5 are under contract,=; 7 sold since April 1. Interesting to notice that one townhouse was sold within 0 days and listed at 1,100,000 and sold at 1,043,500... None of them were either foreclosures or short sale.
Location, location, location.... That's what sells even in slow markets.

Low Interest Rates - do not procrastinate!
As you well know, interest rates are very low. And there are quite a few properties on the market - your choice is not really limited. And it is still buyer's market. My advice to you is - do not waste time. Go talk to a loan officer and get preapproved. (If you need help finding one, let me know). Do not waste any more time. This is the right time to buy! There are so many bargain deals: foreclosures, short sales, etc.
As of today, the treasury has bought about $250 billion in mortgage backed securities under their program that is causing these low interest rates. They just started this about three weeks ago. There was a total of $750 billion allocated for this program, meaning that 1/3rd is already used up just a few weeks into it. Once it is gone rates will rise up again. This means that people have another 6 weeks at this pace before the short is over and rates could rise after that.
Good luck!
