HOUSING MARKET BOUNCES BACK Just about everywhere acrossthe country the housing market is showing stronger signs of recovery. Howeverthe most significant of these gains appear to be in less expensive properties. Inour local Market the data is similar, the largest number of sales transactions forthe first nine months of the year were in the $200,000 to $249,000 price range.Sales data is also indicating that prices are slowly beginning to rise as well. Withthe election season drawing to a close, I’m expecting an even greater surge ofsales activity in the coming months. – Chuck Bartolo
