October 2009 Message from C.A.R. President James Liptak

Dear C.A.R. Member:

2009 has been a thought-provoking year for the real estate industry in California, both for REALTORS® and for our clients. In many instances, it has been a year without precedent. Like most of you, I’ve wondered what 2010 will bring. Many of my questions and concerns were addressed at the opening luncheon during CALIFORNIA REALTOR® EXPO 2009. C.A.R. Vice President and Chief Economist Leslie Appleton-Young deftly navigated her way through the Association’s official forecast for the 2010 housing market, putting today’s market into historical perspective and setting the stage for the future.
