Just getting home after 12 hrs, however I am still trying to kep up here.

Bill - with so many variables it is extremely important for agents, buyers and sellers to pay close attention to the market.  Yes I can't wait for spring, I don't want to shovel snow anymore.

Joan - I want to share the information in a way that it could be easily understood, according to you I achieved that goal.  Thank you.

Carole - Yes the winter has been rather harsh, however buying an selling still takes place.  I have had rather busy productive December -February but usually when it is a mild winter.

Kat - I don't know what the actual loan amount was but this property did have price reductions.  As stated the assessment was $416,000 that is the amount the taxes were based on.

Kim - That is a point I wanted to drive home to sellers; short sales is just another piece that has to be considered when pricing a property for sale.  I like this phrase "there is nothing in real estate that price can't fix."

Eloise - Yes real estate is done in all types of weather because as humans our circumstances are always changing.

Laurie - I have been trying to get that message out, and your point about the effect of waiting should be carefully weighed.  Appraisal will definitely change many realities.

Lynda - Thank you.  Part of our duty is to share information on the marketplace.
