The figures of the Current Activity and Past Activity show we are moving forward—not at incredible speeds—but slowly moving forward. 2013 Residential SALES are the Highest number since the 144 SALES for the year of 2007. 2013 Land SALES are only 11 less than the Highest number of 67 for the year 2008. 2013 Commercial/Multi-Family SALES are the same number as Sales for 2007. Looks like we are on the "Up-Swing" in Sales—We are looking forward to even BETTER sales numbers in the New Year!
