You've shown just how much of a seller's market the Charlotte area is experiencing, Nina. I imagine you have a handful of special practices to help buyers succeed in your tight market.

Roy Kelley thanks, Roy... right now I'm less concerned with people moving here and more concerned with homeowners realizing it's a great time to sell so we can start making inroads in our inventory problems.
