I've noticed its been a while (again) since I've posted. June and July were relatively quiet on the business front. I stay busy with family during the summer when school is out. Well, I guess that's not entirely true, July was busy enough that I have 3 homes under contract scheduled to close in August!!! And I took a weeks vacation last week and am just returning.

I don't know if its the tax credit time frame that will be running out that's got people looking harder or if prices are finally right (or close enough to it), but we've seen a sales spurt again in Lake City, FL. Let's hope it continues through to the end of the year. I'm working on putting together some pricing information for our area now and will share it too.

I have started up a little running again (since my knee injury back in December). Beginning May, I'm only doing 1 race per month and doing a little more walking so as not to overdo.

I'm looking forward to the Leadership conference for NAR in Chicago and the FAR convention in Orlando this month. The traveling will also keep me busy.
