homes, condos, & townhomes, in the area of South Walton, we saw the quantity of sales remain stable with 102 reported sales, compared to 103 sales in March. However, dollar sales volume
increased 21% over March, showing
$55.3 million in sales, now showing four continuous months of similar increase. This is not too different than the growth we saw in 2008 at the beginning of the year, which eventually tapered off beginning in July.

59% increase in quantity of sales....
