Jim:  What an eye opener!  I just keep telling myself that "this too will pass".  Want it be well worth the struggle when the market starts back up.  I know there is light at the end of this "business cycle".

Donna Yates, Georgia Realtor, N GA Blue Ridge Mountains Real Estate  Donna I know!  The numbers that came out the other day are real eyeopeners even for January!  FMLS - the Atlanta Metro MLS is comprised of 24 counties - that is as big as 5 states!  Only 2400 sales out of 83,500 listings?  Ouch!  If we look at these numbers for Area 13 - we have 27 months of inventory not counting foreclosures (44 sales out of 1113 Active Listings.)

Jim  Same story here in Northern Virginia - if we are going to see an improvement in 2008 somebody has to convince buying prospects they may get back in the market too late,  Karen

Karen Kruschka - One of the most experienced agents in Northern Virginia  I agree.  BankRate.com interviewed me over the summer, and my interview spread like wild fire.  The quote that became famous was a "A buyers market without buyers!"  I wish to say conditions improvced, but they have not.  Real estate is coming back to reality, and that confidence is going to take some time.   The new market will be driven by need instead of greed. The transition has started, but it will take time to take hold.  Initially I thought recovery would be this year, I no longer think so.  It will start to recover sometime next year.  The numbers are just too exaggerated.
