Homes are selling in Caravelle Village this year, the middle price range

of values is a big draw.  Sold prices are down compared to first quarter

statistics, this might be the condition of the homes that sold, but it is

not an anomaly for our whole region.  As inventory decreases, home sales

have increased but we are still seeing a flat to decrease in sold prices.
