PMailbag: Housing Market Calming Down?

Dan of the County: I just noticed an interesting trend as I was putting some numbers on a spreadsheet I keep for the volume of business in our Recorders Office. The volume of recordings (including deeds, etc. for home purchases and re-fi’s) for April and May are down to levels of 3-4 years ago … wonder if this will make “stopthecrazygrowthguy” happy …

DFO: Your post, Dan, provides an opportunity to thank you for your service to community by questioning the commissioners’ attempt to censor this blog. Here’s hoping there’s always a Dan of the County to stand in the breach when local pols are abusing their power.
