Taken from the NAR 3rd quarter results, November 2007.

What you have to consider is that in 2005, SALES skyrocketed and prices went up as much as 200%. When you add that into the equation, the sales and the price reductions in Myrtle Beach property are of very little consequence.Labels: myrtle beach condos, myrtle beach real estate |
