Good News....lets share it.....

When all about you are loosing their heads.....keep yours....

It certainly is a crazy world. Today oil prices went below $50 per barrel. The stock market (Dow Jones Industrial Average) is below 8000 ...(goodness knows that may change in the next few minutes), and the auto industry is on the brink of a survival/death match.

If you listen to the news it would seem it is time to just throw in the towel, and go live in the woods. But alas, there is hope. And it starts with each of us....not denying times are challenging...but not allowing the news or the world or whatever, to grind us down. The power of one is a start of something...the power of many working together for positive change, is the beginning of something great. Let's choose positive change...together.

As a builder we are very blessed. Contrary to what some may think (because of the constant stream of bad news) there are customers out there that need new homes. We are serving their new housing needs right now. And everyone one of these customers are making a good decision...and investment, right now. They are getting a beautiful new home, built with the highest level of care quality and technology, in gorgeous communities, at absolutely the best prices possible. I think that is something good that need be shared.

I am sure there are many other similar "positive" stories in the building business and other business's that we can all be proud of. Lets shout the news from the mountain top. Eventually our voices will be heard, and the tide will change. We can make a difference.
