The most promising Pickens County GA real estate news out of the week ending May 2, 2008, is that inventory dropped somewhat from last week's numbers.  Unfortunately, this wasn't the result of a huge jump in pending sales.  It was due to expired and withdrawn listings . . . good news for those still on market facing less competition, but not so good for those homeowners whose homes didn't sell.  Pending sales did go up slightly and there is the faintest stirring in actvity to suggest that perhaps buyers are getting restless?
