    Still trying to figure out where this is, but see how some streets are dry? The highest flood ever, and there are dry areas clearly showing/ Our property is one of those DRY areas. It will have to be the next "once in whatever event" to inundate those properties, if ever. Local knowledge would...

    Yup-the market has tanked. But, in my opinion, it will be short lived. Reason? We are feeling the after effects of the floods. The GFC didn't hurt too much,but the national doom and gloom has scared people. The floods hurt, in more ways then one. We had a period from December to April, where...
