A slight change in direction

For the past few years, I have posted the regional MLS statistics here, and a number of people have enjoyed picking up the numbers to see where the market is going. Starting now, I will be posting those numbers on the brokerage blog instead of here. It's a more convenient spot there and you'll be able to view lots of other blog posts by other agents in out company. As always, you comments are sincerely appreciated.
