What is perking in Lauderhill regarding the sale of homes? Is it as depressed as other areas? Some months back sales seemed better in Lauderhill than elsewhere. Not sure why...but it seemed to be more promising than many areas.

Home prices in Lauderhill, like other areas, have dropped some. It's part of a way overdue correction. However, because our houses were more affordable, there is less room for them to go down. It is also the reason why sales seemed better. They were way underpriced in the first place. Add to that the million of dollars of improvements going on city-wide (1/2 $Billion by 2009), which makes the area a real buy.

I believe that housing prices will stablize sometime during 2007, be stagnant 2008, and start moving up in 2009. It works much like the stock market, but reversing directions is much, much slower, with ups, downs and corrections like the stock market.

Right now the investors have to sell off more before the market will fully stablize. In the meantime we are going forward with redevelopment plans that will coincide with a 2009 completion. That will help prop up the market and turn it around faster.
