[5-DayForum] OK, We're On -- Day 1 in Lynnwood!

[Bill Effros]

Thanks, Monica, I remember.

Ok.  This is a good sign -- the early call from the investor.  This 
means people want what you've got, and recognize the price as nuts.

I think you'll get 25 by Friday night, but if you don't, or if it's a 
weak 25 -- plan to postpone so you can run a strong sale the following 
weekend.

The overall market is even weaker than we have thought.  My mortgage 
company appears to be on the verge of bankruptcy.  I wonder if that 
means I won't have to pay them back?  I'm not holding my breath.  But it 
means that even prime borrowers are walking away from their homes and 
handing the banks the keys.  Nobody can get for their homes what 
everyone thought they could get within the past 3 years.
