Nothing exciting has happened in awhile. See the current newsletter on our web site for a recap of the sales figures for the first six months of this year. Sales are still down 15% from last year in the Metro area, but we are seeing some increased activity and the median price is increasing indicating a slowdown in the lower price range. Active listings which historically increase in the first half of the year didn't happen this year. So, there appears to be some positive signs out there. Some new legislation inroduced at the National level in the form of additional tax credits would help if passed. Looks like an up hill battle. The National Association of REALTORS is really pushing in their lobbying efforts. Still a great time to buy. A lot of demand being pent up. As it breaks loose we'll see a change in the marketplace.
