Profit at homebuilders has plunged since the five-year housing boom ended a year ago. Rising inventories of unsold homes and hesitation by potential buyers on concern that the price of their house will drop has stifled sales.

ah yes! maybe this summer instead of the sound of banging hammers, i will only hear the sound of waves breaking. and... no more pushing sales women in those horrible business suits they wear, making their way through summer visitors. no more centex, kara, etc, etc...

hi nj coast. thanks for that info. it is very helpful. where did you get it?
Stats above are from the Monmouth County MLS.
Great information njcoast. Is this public information on the website or Members Only?
I could not find it on www.momls.com.......
RE: rbyzell, couldn't agree more re: those business suits. I'd never buy a house from a woman unless she was wearing a skirt. It's just the way I am.
