ENDING ON A POSITIVE NOTE(S)
1. Rents are rising and it’s cheaper to buy a home in 80% of the country—owning is cool again
2. Despite the last decade, real estate is viewed very positively, especially by young people
3. This off season has the potential to be much busier than usual
4. Real estate fundamentals are finally healthy again, and the future looks good
