One More Look at Bogus Reports from the NWMLS

Posted on August 11, 2010September 7, 2010 by The Tim

I’ve got one last set of data that I’d like to share on the matter of the NWMLS monthly reports not really reporting what happened during the specified month.

Posted on August 9, 2010August 9, 2010 by The Tim

June market stats have been published by the NWMLS. Here’s a link to the NWMLS press release (not yet live as of this posting). As requested, here are the full monthly stats from the NWMLS “July” report. Before we get into the numbers though, there are two key points that I’d like to try to…
