For those that are interested, here are the predictions I made for 2008, as well as a wrap-up post about the results. I was right on 6½ of the ten real estate predictions… So here are the predictions for the coming year…
I will admit I am an optimist. Usually… But I am also a contrarian. So, I generally tend to run counter to most, and I look for the good.

True to my word I have begun posting them. I have one up now, and another will appear late tomorrow morning. I should have another posts tomorrow evening and the final of this group posted by Thursday afternoon.
These are listings that I found in the local MLS. These are NOT my listings. I am happy to represent a purchaser on any of the presented properties.
