There are fluctuations within each area - because of particular products available, creation or elimination of jobs, or school schedules, for instance - but on average the markets for 2008 have remained firmly in the buyers' favor. A reader emailed me after last month's post and asked why I wasn't using more of the MLS data in each months report. More MLS data would include things like price changes, days on market, etc., and the absorption rate is a quick snapshot of the

Blacksburg Open Forum Regarding Proposed Roundabout
http://activerain.com/blogsview/576969/Blacksburg-Open-Forum...VDOT's Salem District Office, Civil Rights Division, at the above address or telephone (540) 387-5320 or TTY/TDD 711. State Project: U000-150-111, PE-101, RW-201, C-501;UPC: 67974; Federal Project: STP-5150 (123) I wrote about this project in April of last year, and I have to admit that I'm skeptical a roundabout will assist with traffic control at such a busy intersection.

Where CAN You Build It?
http://activerain.com/blogsview/546204/Where-CAN-You-Buildmember Paul Lancaster after last night's 4-3 vote, turning down the proposed Sonic in the First & Main development. Wish I had the answer. I've had two calls from friends this morning asking about the issue, and other than referring them to other posts on the topic, I don't know what to tell them.
