Waiting in My Inbox

Adding too much of my own commentary only can ruin it. From NAR this morning …

As we kick off another year “All Together,” it is easy to get caught up in news about what is wrong with the real estate market. The truth is that 2008 is shaping up to be a promising year for real estate, with plenty of opportunities to buy and sell in every market.

According to NAR Research, there is significant pent-up housing demand that will begin to be unleashed into the marketplace in 2008. Many markets will see rising home sales and strengthening home prices. We believe that the worst of the credit problems are behind us. Great news for consumers and REALTORS®!

…

Since 1908, REALTORS® have worked hard to earn a reputation as America’s leading community builders and dream makers. Today, the “Voice for Real Estate” is stronger than it has ever been, speaking for millions of consumers in neighborhoods across America. And, we’re just getting started.

…

NAR is constantly working on your behalf, and we want to hear from you. Please do not hesitate to contact us with your thoughts and suggestions. With your help, we will show consumers across the nation that now is a great time to invest in real estate. We are in this “All Together!”

Should I laugh? Cry? Shake my head? All three?

I don’t even know anymore.
