“It’s pointless,” said reason.
“Give it a try,” whispered the heart.

“People ask me what I do in winter when there’s no baseball. I’ll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring.” – Rogers Hornsby

Spring is here and the Northeast Florida Association of Realtors market stats look strong. The most impressive trend I see is pending sales.
