BAD HOUSING MARKET NEWS

Of course, our Big Bro D Magazine has a great article this month on the real real estate market in Dallas, how we defy the national trends, how our values are actually going up. I am hearing a mixture of reports from agents–some say January was slow, some say it sizzled. Was talking to builder-developer Diane Cheatham the other day and she said anything inside the loop is hot, and her Urban Reserve is selling. So folks, hang in there. Do we really defy the national trend–lots of people moving here. Or are we, as Allison Di Martino formerly of the DMN used to say, the caboose on the national real estate train?
