I realize real estate is local.. I wish everyone understood how speaking directly to a reputable Realtor makes all the difference.. the media can only wrap the status of the economy into one conversation..how wrong that is!

My mind is boggled that your market is so saturated with short sales. It really underlines that with all the competition a buyer / seller really needs one that know their market WELL.. and that gal is YOU! I love your reports.

Hi Renee...It's all Good News, Home Buyers sitting on the fence better move soon, as the choices are going fast. Especially with record low mortgage rates.

Cheers, great market update, love your pie chart, did you do that in Word?

Those are some encouraging numbers! Maybe now you can get the good doctor's parent's house on the market!

Michele: Why thanks and I think you summed it up best!!

Fred: I do that in Excel! If you want the tax credit, no joke you gotta act now, there is nothing short about a short sale! I hated the pressure as the last tax credit was expiring. Real estate transactions are taking forever here!

Donna: good reminder, thanks. The problem here is HVCC and lender overlays on appraisals are preventing appreciation :-/

That's a lot of short sales; appraisals are hurting my generating time in this market as well. What gets me is when they come back with some crazy demand at the 11th hour.

Renee, once all this inventory is finally sold out, think how easy things will seem to be. glad to hear that homes ae starting to move throuigh the popeline.

Renee,

The listing percentage is quite high compared with how many actually sell. I gather a bunch of them still aren't approved by the banks.

As always you have a great way to keep the public informed about your market. .. short sales will remain with us for a few more years. .we better get used it
