…We continue to have a
simple supply and demand market. Large demand, driven in large part by the
University, not yet matched by an equal supply. Simply put, the market is
strong and looks to continue that way for some time…. *Note my disclaimers

What does this mean for
the Central VA region? Not much. We continue to have a simple supply and demand
market. Large demand, driven in large part by the University, not yet matched by
an equal supply. Simply put, the market is strong and looks to continue that way
for some time. Maybe. Perhaps. Probably. *Note my disclaimers from purporting to
