Well spring couldn’t come any faster for me! I think the older I get the more I dislike winter. I understand more and more why people head south for the winter.

With all the gloom and doom going on in the world I decided to run 08 statistics against 09 statistics at this point last year. Would you believe that there are 1500 more homes under contract than last year at this time? Go figure? The average sales price on a three bedroom, 2 bath has dropped from $162,213 to $145,967,  which is about a 10% drop. The average days on the market have stayed the same at 106 days. The other thing that I learned is perception. The media controls everything.   Wouldn’t you love a gag order on all of them and then we could go about enjoying life. They say prayers work. So if we all pray for a better economy we can’t go wrong. I know a lot of my clients could use those extra prayers. Here’s to St. Joseph!
