FROM THE President

Encouraging Signs

We're seeing a lot of encouraging signs in the housing market across the country. NAR's latest existing–home sales report shows there's not inventory to meet the demand in many areas and that's driving up prices and creating multiple bidding situations. These findings vary greatly from what we've had before. Hear more from an interview I did recently with XM radio, and be sure to share it with your clients.

Washington County Board of REALTORS® Annual Golf Tournament 2012

REALTORS® GOLF TOURNAMENT raised over $4,000 for the Children of Hope Academy!  It was another hot day in the desert, but true golfers know that’s no excuse to avoid hitting the links.  Especially, it seems, when it’s for a good cause.  On June 22nd, 80 REALTORS® and Affiliates teed off at the 18th Annual Washington County Board of REALTORS® Golf Tournament held at the Bloomington Country Club in support of The Children of Hope Academy.  The event grossed over $4,000 in donations!  The purpose of the Academy is to help mentally challenged individuals achieve their full potential and to provide their families with programs to help make that happen.  The Children of Hope Academy is located at 1000 East 200 South in St. George.
