Wisconsin’s The Triangle shows signs of slowing
Submitted by Anonymous on Wed, 05/09/2007 - 05:00.Construction and sales of new homes slipped in the Triangle during the first quarter of 2007, according to a report by Houston-based housing information company Metrostudy, which doesn't see the area's home sales accelerating in the immediate future.
But the Triangle market is in better shape to weather a slowdown than most, says Ed Dunnavant, director of Metrostudy's North Carolina division, because it hasn't fallen prey to the speculative investing that hit places such as Florida and the Sun Belt.
