Charts & Graphs
What's this all about?
"A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS," ... or so it is often attributed to Frederick R. Barnard, an advertising executive who used the phrase in a 1921 article promoting images in advertising. He's correct, especially for the many readers who are dyslectic (about one-third of the population including me -- Van Lewis).
The purpose of this page is to post charts and graphs of the many things that go into general economic issues and real estate in particular.. Visualizing trends and numbers gives perspective to many readers about business cycles, population and age distributions, and monthly-annual reports, e.g. home sales and interest rates.
With this in mind, please enjoy the following list of charts and graphs showing what Pete and I thinks are important factors for home sellers and buyers.
