Teri, That's great news.  A stable market right now is wonderful.  I loved the photo, I guess when they say White Bear they really mean it :)

Hi Teri,

Your year end reports are so well done, easy to understand! I know I've said this before, but your numbers really look pretty good for a decling market. Actually much better than ours.

Keep up the great work!

Lynda--Although we had amazing appreciation in MN during the past decade, it was nothing like on the coasts. Though it is still painful for homeowners to absorb the price adjustments it is good to remember that it is worse in states like California where appreciation and now depreciation are very dramatic!

Hi Teri, A nice looking report and it is certainly better activity than in some areas.  I do expect though that we will begin to see some transition this year. Hows that for being positive. Activity sure has increased here in San Diego and I hope it is not a false starter.

William--Thanks! I too hope that things will start picking up in California. When things start moving on the coasts again, better days will be ahead for the entire country.
