Bill - Very easy to read statistics you put together for your Holliston Real Estate Market Report September 2008.  We are seeing only a slight decrease in the number of sales from 2007 vs 2008 in the Branford area however the average sales price from 2007 to 2008 has decreased about 17%.

Donna - It sounds like your market is similar in terms of the decline in values but we have had a lot fewer sales year over year.

Thanks Ed. I am not sure about the amount of business specfically in Holliston. I cover all the towns in Metrowest. Why are you asking about a 33 month time frame?? Yes I did know this weekend was celebrate Holliston.

Bill thanks for the commnet the reason for the 33 months is that it covers all of 2006 till through Sept that just ended. I know that you have been a top listing realtor in Metrowest over the last 20 years but was not sure how much of your business was in Holliston. We have seen a swing over the last 10 years away from the small independent office and more to the large group type offices. With that swing I feel as though there is even more focus on the individual that is doing the work like yourself then there is about the firm they are associated with. As little as 7 years ago a town like Holliston had a great % of the sales covered by independent group like Group 1 realtors. This group no longer exsists. Thanks again ed
