Closed Transactions July 15-21 A subscriber emailed me this week: "Jeez, Paul, can't you make these reports less like objective Wall Street Journal reports and more fun like we see on Fox News?" Well okay, Tim, this headline's for you. Bet you opened it, too! I guess I can fun it up a little, but I won't lie about the statistics. okay The good news: the market is picking up, especially in Poulsbo, and buyers are snapping up well-priced homes quickly.
