A Good Sign?

[Tamara R.]

Hubby and I are in the process of refinancing the loan on our resdience. Appraiser came by yesterday to appraise our house, and she mentioned how extremely busy she was--not with refinances but with new property purchases. I thought that was pretty unusual,especially for this time of the year. Maybe this is a good sign that the economy (or housing market at least) is picking up. Are you noticing a similar trend in your investment areas?
