While the east and west coasts plus Las Vegas had explosive appreciation, our appreciation was good, but more moderate due to less speculation. I'll take our less volatile market any day! :) Hi JKK,

Do you think that there are unique circumstances in Chicago that help stem the national trend or is this merely a time lag, where the Chicago market is just slower in dropping compared to other markets?
