Galand Haas,

Good Monday Morning!

With banks such as Indi Mac failing, consumer confidence across the country is suffering.  Now the problem with the Real Estate market is as much of a confidence problem as it is a problem of real economic conditions.  This confidence problem has become evem more exaggerated with the recent rumblings that national Real Estate mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are suffering from loan default problems as well. Within any economic cycle consumer confidence plays a huge role.  I would think that the trends that we see in our local market will follow the confidence level of consumers nationally.  So, watch closely what national economic experts predict , because that is most likely the path that our local market will follow during the months ahead.

Have An Awesome Week!



AND HERE'S YOUR MONDAY MORNING COFFEE!!

Sincerely,
Galand
