Hi Pamela--I thought about sending you an e-mail, but then I thought why not just comment and give you points?  I LOVE your Wake County Real Estate Market Report market reports and I LOVE your charts---would you consider sharing how you create them?  Maybe a tutorial?  Or if this is a secret recipe, maybe off line sharing?  I need to get going on something like this and my lack of skills is holding me back!!  I would so appreciate your help and direction!!!

We've got to agree that you do the best Market Reports. With all the wonderful things about Wake County and all they have to offer you're definitely the Real Estate Team they should turn to in Buying or Selling.

Pam, the fact that Wake County has gotten 5 accolades in one month is extremely impressive.   It does sound like a great place to live. 

I like how you combine some general information, such as the great accolades earned this month, with the market reports.   In my opinion, that type of information helps put the market reports in context.
