Coinciding with the newest update to the Builder's Report Matrix (www.hmsrealestate.com/brm) is this article on the RISMedia site that talks about trends. We highly recommend not just reviewing data, but tearing it apart, finding the benefits for your audience and knowing the area you are responsible for better than local Realtors, buyers, EVERYONE. Use the B.R.M. to compare new to resale, current activity to past trends, submarket to larger region, supply and pricing trends. Then look around the web and local area for data that Greg Rand refers to on the RIS site: http://rismedia.com/2011-09-21/5-real-estate-trends-to-watch-for/print/
