Sure seeing a lot more activity.  All the news about interest rates going up by the end of the year...

Pam - Activity has picked up here and is becoming more stable.

Don - 16% of the total were homes in the $300-$399 range.  Pretty cool, huh?

Penny - It was only a matter of time and yes, you're right, the interest rates edging up are a factor.
