Market Update, January 2010
The market is improving over last year when we review the number of closed transactions in January 2010 with 7 closed transactions. The impressive number comes from the residential properties currently under contract totaling 20! If these all close and considering we are only in our first month of the first quarter- 27+ closings is way ahead of 15 closings for 2009 first quarter sales…we still have Feb. & March to add to this number.
