Our local reality . . .
Home sales are up 18% this October to last October
(though they are still down approximately 16% when looking 2006 YTD vs. 2007 YTD)
I am hopeful that Daily News Record readers realize that the national real estate news stories that run are often telling a far different story than exists here in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County.
