Its difficult to recognize a trend from the data other than the number of units sold is back to 2004 levels. What the chart does not show is the significant price difference between on-water and off-water homes. That can be seen in other areas of the blog. Obviously, there were not many lake homes sold in the first quarter of 2008.
