Getting Back on Track

Oct. 2, 2008
Categorized in: General Advice

The month of September has been crazy for me.  Between moving to a new house, going on a wonderful family vacation and Rosh Hashanna, my schedule is completely out of whack.  Many things, including this blog, have fallen by the wayside, but I'm getting back to business.

Early next week I'll be posting my regular Monthly Market Update and a special Quarterly Market Trend Analysis to see where the market has been so far this year. 

Now as far as where the market might be going - well that's something I'm going to try and tackle also.  The only thing I know for sure is that all of the Wall Street wackiness is going to have a definite effect on Fairfield County.  Not only do many financial, banking and Wall Street-related firms have a presence here, but many people living here are (or were) employed by these firms so when they aren't doing well, it starts to cause problems in our local markets. So I'm going to weed through the national and local news stories to find information to help make sense of what's going on and how it relates to the local real estate market.

Along the way, I'll continue to highlight any other news stories or items that I think would be of interest.  Thanks for your patience during my short hiatus.  I promise to have more good information coming along for you soon.
