Hang in there Nick, I think I know how you feel.
Our area has not had the dramatic housing bubble that has been seen in other areas, but just listening to the national news with all the talk of a housing bubble bursting can tend to get even the most optimistic person down in the dumps.
Just remember, everything in real estate is cyclical, always has been.
For every low there is a high and vice versa.
This too shall pass!

For what it is worth, I have had my best Jan. ever. Lots of foreclosures and winterized properties, but still it is business.
