As I listen to the news of course there's plenty to hear about the election but I'm also hearing the sounds of recession on the air waves. This week we had two closings and my other staged properties are ready to sell based on feedback and activity. Atlanta doesn't seem to have the same temperature reading as the news. Does anyone else see it the same way in their city?

I'm not sure what to make of the Indianapolis market. Foreclosures are horribly high, Property values are falling in many areas, average sales prices are down, average days on the market (For un-staged homes) is well over 100 days, the MLS expired rate is running around 48%, Builders are pulling up stakes and yet, we're haveing the busiest January, February and March that we have ever had. The signs are Bad, the press is bad, but our business is not. I'm just not sure what to think...
