hiram: Paulding County Ga. Market report Nov 2008
- 11/24/08 10:16 PM
Here is the most recently available market information from Realist for Paulding County Georgia home and condo sales. The September to September home sales figures are about as expected. There about a 30% drop in sales volume and a 10% drop in the average sales price. A lot of the price drop may be attributed to the exteme decrease in more expensive new home sales.

If you are in the market to buy a car here are a few tips that I would give, In no particular order : … (8 comments)
