This research definitely shows a tale of two cities. Smyrna real estate market is right on track, and perhaps a little ahead of the numbers from last year. However, the number of homes sold from last Jan-May (2006) to those sold this Jan-May (2007) in LaVergne dropped 25% this year. The good news for LaVergne, however, is the numbers seem to be leveling again when you compare May to May (2006 v. 2007), so my thoughts are the market is picking up again. I hope gas prices stabilize so that consumers can regain confidence and get back to investing in purchasing their own homes!
