It has been slow in the real estate business, but there are starting to be some signs of buyers interested at realistic prices. I think we lost sight of what was realistic in late '06. Now there are interested buyers poking around at what is about 70% of the '06 prices. That is a $350,000 house in '06 might attract some interest in the $245,000 range. That is pretty tough on someone who got a 90% loan ($315,000) just 2 years ago.
Fortunately there are lots of owners around here who bought property a number of years ago and are just fine.
Link has been staying home because I have been lame with a bad knee that is getting better. Hopefully, I will get better soon. I've been laid up about 3 weeks and still not ready to horse around. I hardly go out of the house on the weekends.
This weekend is the 'Southern Music Rising Bluegrass Festival' Saturday at the Opera House. It sounds like a great party. Last week was a canoe trip on the Wacissa River and the 1st Anniversary of Tupelo's. Monticello is a great place to live. There are just so many nice people.
