So what used to be the Bank of America monthly survey is now the Credit Suisse monthly survey. I still take part in this survey and the results are e-mailed to me when tallied. The June report came in late last week and it was nice to see that we actually had a thumbs up for a change. The traffic index experienced a jump and that’s what we’re seeing as well. First time home buyers have flooded into the market in recent months. The $8000 tax credit for qualifying first time buyers is certainly pushing many of them off the fence. There is a strong push underway to extend the tax credit deadline beyond the December 1st date, increase the credit amount, and make the credit available to all home buyers. We’ll see….
