I wonder how many times I have been there, shutting someone down too early.

Caring expertise...knowledge for you!

A good alert to all of us...I call it practicing periphery vision, and not falling down the narrowing tunnel.

Alan,

I'm sure entire countries have been lost on short sightedness.

Alan, It is the old cannot see the forest for the trees comment. I am sure I am guilty of doing what you are talking about and probably everyday.

Richard - I know I've been there. I'm sure everyone has at one tie or another.

Bob - Some would say What forest? What trees. I'm sure your not doing it every day.

Too many of us have shut out opportunities without full consideration.

Have a most productive spring.

Low inventory continues across the region, lowest proportion of townhome listings on record. There were 6,289 active listings in the DC Metro Region at the end of March, a drop of over 4,200 listings from last year. The inventory shortage continues to impact all property segments, with active listings down over 40 percent across the board relative to last year. Townhomes continue to have the lowest supply, accounting for only 15.8 percent of all listings in the region, which is the lowest proportion on record with data available back to 1997. The subtle signs of improvement in new listings that occurred last month have faded. There were 5,817 new listings in March, 15.8 percent lower than last March. New listings rose 28.1 percent from last month, but this is well below the 10-year average February-to-March change for the region of +41.1 percent. This could highlight lingering uncertainty with sellers despite the rising sales prices. It could also reflect that many sellers decided to list their properties earlier than typical seasonal patterns. The low inventory continues to drive down the median days on market, which at 15 days is 26 days lower than March 2012, and is the lowest of any month since September 2005. The average sale-to-list price ratio continues to climb, up to 97.6 percent, the highest ratio for the DC Metro Region in nearly seven years.
