Seeking suggestions

I browse this bbs everyday. I found out that there are many investing experts here.

I am living in Atlanta, GA and my family is considing to buy a 24w-28w priced house around northern area ( Alpharetta, Fulton County). Since many people are discussing RE market here and they are thinking the RE market is in downtrend.

Any expert here can give us some suggestions on whether we should keep looking for a house or hold for a while. Anyway, we are a first time home buyer and we both(I and my wife) are working on EAD cards now (I-485 pending). Our apartment lease will expire at the end of May.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
