George Souto   That's what the system shows bur we also have a new MLS system, and their resources seem to fail by comparison to the older version.

Thank you Jim Crawford   It does get attention and from time to time I am questioned on it by people that see me.

John Pusa   I prepare it for my own education and then share it just incase someone else has an interest.

Kathy Streib   It is a small town with a small market and listings will be getting scarcer as turnover is starting to be slow, especially in the smaller homes.

Brian England   At times I am not sure as to what I am known for.

Thanks for the information, Ed. 

It looks like a pretty good market for sellers in Prospect and a challenge for buyers with so few homes coming on the market.

John Juarez   It's an excellent market for sellers but buyers are having a difficult time as some of the homes for sale are getting beyond their means.

Hi Ed:

Looks like the Prospect housing market continues to be pretty competitive and a challenge for buyers. That's a pretty substantial shift in average sales price YOY for February, too.  Buyers, and sellers in Prospect would clearly benefit from your guidance and advice.
