Good luck in your market place with sales this fall.  Our sales are better than this time last year too.

YTD our brokerage is up 6% over last year, however by counties we serve numbers are down across the board - we focus on making our own stats :)

Laura, great report with good information on the market in Charleston.    Your sales look good, and hope the distressed market decreases over the next few months.   Nice to see 97% of list price!
