Adressing the market

Ok,  I had an email this morning from a client. He emailed  an article on "how bad the market" is and to stay away from Real estate.

Now this is distressing to me because in the White Mountains of NH and Western Maine, we are not seeing this trend. We of course have seen a slow down and price reductions, but our office is still productive.

So I put out to you.....how do I respond to these negative sources. My concern is that iwhen I tell them about our market verses the rest of the states, they tend not to believe what I say. They think that I am "selling"
