July was the busiest month year to date. August was down -17.23% according to Kimberly Clifton, MLS president. The  good news is that pending contracts are up 3.83% over July's and up 45.1% for August 2008.

Broken down by type, there were 817 single family residences sold in August; 67 townhomes, 55 condos, 33 manufactured homes and 8 mobile homes sold.

This year the most homes sold were in the $200,000 to $249,999 range. Next in line were $300,000 to $399,999. The range in between were fewer. Interesting.

I'm back with a market trend for anti-aging that you Baby Boomers should love. My daughter says it really works so I am anxious to try it. This company has been around a long time but have an exclusive product that has positive and negative ions to put their creams deep into your skin with an electrical charge. They are in 48 countries with this fountain of youth. Let me know if any of you men and women are interested in hearing more.
