Market Statistics

It's our goal to present the options a homeowner has and to assist them with making the best choice....

Everywhere I go, as soon as someone hears what I do, they inevitable make a comment like, "Oh business must be hard for you right now." or "How's the market doing?"

As I contemplate all the blessings in my life, I wonder how many people think of Thanksgiving as just another holiday to gather family, eat loads of food and watch football (or if your still a kid at heart like me the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade).

I just have to say it's been a great week.  As a Diamondbacks season ticket holder, I must salute my team who is in first place in the NL West!  Way to go!  It was also great to find that management worked out a deal with Eric Byrnes, who is one of my favorite players to watch. Now onto the real ...
