EVERYWHERE the house market is taking a bath. It is less affected here than in most places....at least now. HOWEVER who knows what will happen to our home values if some of our own residents keep trashing this area and the developers. I challenge you to find any place in this country that is more solid than this place as an investment.
I have said way too much. I get so angry when it is the same thing over and over and over.
It is true there is nothing new about the IRS.
