The Real Estate Market Is What You Make Of It

I read the news everyday and I can't believe how often the same articles are being written.  "Forclosures Are Up", "Housing Starts Are Down", "Housing Prices On The Decline"...you know what I'm talking about.  But maybe I am crazy when I see the positive in everything.

I had my sales manager run our '07 transaction numbers and compared them to '06...we went UP 76% this year.  Now granted '06 was a disaster...but with all of the negative press in '07 you would think things didn't change for the better...but  a 76% increase is not just a bit better...it's amazingly better.

I just want all of those newspaper writers to take notice and report what is really happening...some people are having a decent time...it isn't all bad.  I dare the papers to print the good news for a change!

Amen, James! I know you wrote this last month but I just did an ActiveRain tag search for "good news" and your post was the first to come up. It's great to see someone on the same page, as I fully subscribe to the idea of remaining optimistic, positive and upbeat in the midst of the crazy, skewed negative news stream. Thanks for the post!
