Interest rates rising will lower prices a bit (in the end, a buyer taking out a loan will likely be paying the same, because what ever drops in house prices goes to the bank in interest). I dropped my home's price (undesirable neighborhood) pretty aggressively in the last 6 months before hiring a property manager to rent it out. I would recommend just keeping your eye out for deals. Right now is off peak season (in the US) so you might find someone desperate and get a bargain.
