I just received the Utah Association of REALTORS 2009 2nd quarter market statistics--quarterly comparison.  Wow!  We are doing well in Iron County!  For single family homes, we sold 94 in 1st quarter and 133 in 2nd quarter which means we have an increase of 41.49%!  That's something to shout about!  For condos and townhomes, we sold 25 last quarter and 35 this quarter which is a 40% increase in real estate sales mostly in Cedar City, Utah, but also in outlying areas in the entire county! 

I can't wait to see 3rd quarter statistics because our market seems to be bustling with buyer activity.  How about your area?  Are you also seeing an increase in offers, multiple offers and closed sales?  I hope the trend in the country is to move!  That means buy and sell homes all the time like in a market boom!  Do you think a market like that is well on it's way?  Foreclosures or no foreclosures, people are buying real estate, and that's can't be anything but good!
