As we evaluate the Marin real estate market and notice the results in the recent and current activity all signs point to &quot;YES&quot;.

            <title>August 2010 Marin Real Estate Outlook</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
As predicted, real estate has slowed in July as residents head out on vacations and grab some time off from a stressful first six months. There are 1675 properties on the market of which 25% are in escrow which is a drop of 5% from July. None of this is surprising except that we usually see the big slowdown in August, but schools are starting earlier this year, the weather is inviting, and the travel deals are abundant. Although the higher end sales over $1.5 million have diminished, we are see... ]]> </description>
