The average number during the boom years was 1,433. The average from Jan ’06 to Mar ’08 is 1,098. In March we had 915 homes closed. So we are approx 92% of the pre boom average, 90.5% of over an eleven year average, 64% of the boom average. The lowest month was 524 and the highest was 1,978 homes sold. I guess it hasn’t occurred to you that the volume that is taking place now is more in line with normal. SLCo 7,821 Active Listings, 1,798 pending. As for counting commissions on pending sales, yes about 77% of those will close. That is roughly $388 Million Dollars in sales volume. btw Adam I really appreciate all the SEO your commenting brings, keep up the good work.

The thing about foreclosures is that somebody wins and somebody loses. And guess who's left holding the bag at the end of the dance...WE ALL ARE. Wake up people and realize that it's all of us taxpayers cleaning up this mess. Regards, Rob Lawrence http://www.battlecall.com Don’t forget about the foreclosure market.

Here in San Diego we have a lot of those waiters as well. I'm not sure when "timing" a market became so popular. Whatever happened to buying a home to live in? Great job! Nicely written post.
