If we are looking for a bottom we believe we have a way to go. The MLS system reported only 7 sales in Teton County, Wyoming in Januray 2009! The previous low was 9 in November of 2008. And the real eye opening fact is when looking aside from the past 3 months the “low water mark” was 23 in January of 2002! Sales volume for January 2009 was $9.2 million and the previous low was February, 2002 @ 16.9 million. Wow!
