There is the history. The big spike in the number of units sold that occurred in many of the areas was a result of the significant drop in the price of properties. This spike followed the real drop in numbers in 2008. These numbers are one of the reasons that I continue to track the sales. Had I been tracking numbers at that time, I may have been alerted to the real end of the boom market. I am not sure that we will know when the market will have another boom because, as you can see, the numbers generally are in a rather short range, Even in the boom market the volume was pretty consistent.
