"Williamson County's real estate market continues to be very healthy. The real estate season has begun with the trends for the amount of closings consistent with the previous two outstanding years. The amount of closings is the highest for 2007 to date, which is typical for the beginning of the summer season. The median prices are still increasing in our local area which is in contrast to the majority of markets in other areas of United States. Real estate markets are local in nature; buyers and sellers are cautioned to look at the local statistics and not rely on National reporting, which is not representative of our sought-after Williamson County properties." said Susan McKinney, 2007 President of the Williamson County Association of REALTORS®.
