It's Been a Little Sluggish..........and Me Too !

Since I've not talked to you since April, I suppose that makes me the Sluggish One. (an S.O.?) The market around Oconee and Sinclair has actually shown some signs of life, and thank you for that. Mary and I have closed a couple of lakehomes in the last few weeks, and have another one or two (fingers crossed!) to close before the end of the year.

We are seeing lots of activity, mostly in the form of "lookers". Hopefully the "buyers" are not far behind. Our inventory remains plentiful, and prices have slipped a bit, so we may sell our way out of this slump yet. This time last Fall was very much like it is now, and we closed '08 really strong. Maybe we'll see "deja vu all over again"in '09 ...... is that a Yogi Berra quote?

We believe the following: Spring will be GOOD, maybe even better than good. Condos and Townhomes, which are down on price and up on availability, will be REAL GOOD! The lower priced lakefront homes are priced lower than they have been in a couple of years.....aren't you glad you didn't buy one before now? As good as '09 has been for buyers, bring your checkbook when you come out in the next few months! 2010 won't be for "tire kickers", it'll be for "bu_t kickers"!

Thanks for hangin in gang......I promise to do better. Jim
