So, it gets the benefit of book ending the beginning of the housing cycle and the downsizing. Fred is this a buyers ourselves market, in New Hampshire a buyers or selelrs m lers marker . Chris if you have six months of inventory or less, it is more of a sellers market. Nationally, there is around four months of supply of homes for sale. New hampshire is exactly six months. So, it s kind of a no man s land still. Fred if somebody s thinking about buying or selling, what should they do now . Chris we are getting early reports of shortages of inventory, which is unusual for january. Although that is regionalized, we are hearing enough of it where it has gotten our attention. My advice is if you re looking at spring or summer timeframe, if you could i would consider moving your timetable up to now. There is a lot less inventory, which puts you in a better position to be able to access buyers. Fred mortgages, restrictions on mortgages, still tough to get a mortgage . Chris it is not tough to get a mortgage but the mortgage qualifying details. So, the process used to take maybe 3045 days. Now it is 4560 days. Inexpensive.

Give me an idea. Chris the Regulatory Environment has changed. We were talking about the mortgage process has gotten a lot tighter. I think there is a lot of wisdom to that. I don t look at that is a bad thing. I think making sure that people can afford what they are buying is important. Internet has certainly changed the housing cycle. From putting our listings online but more than that, the consumer it is a great environment. They have the ability to go online, do their comparative shopping. I think where the internet has actualized itself i think has changed the landscape of the industry. Fred chris masiello. Too short, but we made the point. Thanks for being here.
