Last year in December there was a marked spike in sales.  So much so that it was the second highest month of sales since 2006.

This year, at about 2/3’s thru the month, it looks like we will have a significantly lower month of sales than last year although I’ve been surprised before by a sudden surge at the end of the month.  Overall this has been a very strong year but we’ve also seen a decline in inventory, especially in foreclosed properties, and I think that this is starting to have an effect.

We’ll see how things up in about 2 weeks.
