Here is the trend in a nutshell as reported by the WNC MLS of which I am a menber.

• Homes proced at $200,000 - $249,999 represent the largest sector of the housing market at 18.82%
• 186 Of these homes have sold this year, 67 in March 2008.
• 356 homes sold in March compared to 580 last year, a decrease of 39%
• Current homes sold year to date in Western North Carolina is 979, compared to 1,491 last year at the end of March.  That equals a decrease of only 34%.

The trend would indicate that April will be a good month fo buyers an sellers in Brevard, North Carolina and surrounding areas.
