Ann,

That is some good info about the NH homes.

Johnathan

Hi Ann, Love the way you do your blog. Hope that sales begin to pick up for all of us. There has been more activity in the last couple of weeks. I hope every month can be like October with the rise in sales.

Hi Jonathan - I hope it comtinues to improve for all of us - thanks for commenting!

Hi Pat - thanks for that compliment! Sales picking up will be good for all of us, in all industries, and let's hope the improvements in the markets take hold all over the place very soon.

Thanks for reading and commenting!
Ann

Ann another great report to keep those in your area interested in Real Estate up to speed!

Ann.... real facts of the real estate market are always important. My pet peeve is when someone gives their opinion, making it sound factual. You did a nice job here. Question... is there a place where you can get those follow me birds for tweeter? I have seen different ones. Not sure if you made them up or copied them from some where. Thanks

Ann ...... local, local, local that is what it comes down to. Market conditions are different within states, cities, towns, and even neighborhoods at time. Buyers need to work with a Realtor that knows the area first hand and is familiar with what is going on. Again ......... local, local, local :)

Ann, I'm always curious about what's going on in the market back home in New Hampshire. This is a great report, I appreciate the use of the graphs.

FEB

Hi Anne,

Just stopping by to see your really nice market reports ...I hope all is well...happy selling.

FEB

Hi Bill - thanks! It's important to keep up with the market, even if people aren't buying or selling.

Hi Jeff - real facts, the only thing I use for my reports! I found several really cool ones online on a site that makes them for others to use. I can't remember what site it was but I bet if you google it, you'll see a bunch of them. I remember finding a bunch of different sites that had them for anyone to use.

Hey George - drilling down to the very local is so important. The media paints us all with one very big broad brush but it just doesn't tell the real story, not at all.

Hi Debbie - Stop by anytime! Glad you like the graphs - I love being able to do those, now that I learned how. ;-)

Hey Neal - love seeing you stop by! Happy selling to you as well!

Many thanks for the comments - Ann

Ann,

Just checking your blogs as I just read a MEME post you did last year/game. I never been to your area and like you I feel it is important for Realtors to get the real message out to our buyers and sellers.

No matter the economy there will always be people that need to sell & those that need to buy. I will be back.

Hi Ann—One of my step daughters lives in Maine now, so I'm always looking for info concerning the RE markets in the New England area. I'm glad you learned how to do the charts... it really makes a difference for someone like me who's visually oriented to understand the meaning of the numbers. Hope you are doing well and that the market in your area picks up soon!

MAR

Hi Mary - thank you for finding the posts of mine that you did. I had a lot of fun with that Jeopardy game back then. AR was a smaller community and easy to do something like that than.

There will always be those who need to sell and those who need to buy - and knowing the markets well and/or working with someone who does is crucial.

Ann

Hi Linda - what part of Maine does she live in? Right here in my market area is the southern tip of Maine - Eliot, Kittery, York, Wells, South Berwick.

I am very happy to have finally figured how to use some charts, too. And I agree about the visual part - must easier to understand for many people, including me!

Ann

APR

Ann - Another well presented and informative report which I am sure readers in your market appreciates.

APR

Wow Ann! What an interesting report. Must have taken you alot of work to post! Good job!

Al and Peggy

Good morning. I don't mind what language an opera is sung in so long as it is a language I don't understand. Help me! Could you help me find sites on the: Metal roofing screw spacing. I found only this - retail jobs in high wycombe. Ca - personal finance for canadians is a down to earth guide offering straightforward financial advice. Your own personal tutor, it teach you to get better. Thank you very much :confused:. Geri from Guyana.
