Saturday Report
There's nothing wrong with a normal market - just because it's not as insane everywhere as it was six months ago doesn't mean it's not a steady strong regular market that benefits everyone:
NSDCC Sales by Price, First Half of the Year
The higher-end sales between Carlsbad and La Jolla were fairly consistent through 2020 - then they exploded this year, with the $2,000,000+ sales totaling more than double the counts of previous years!
