Susan,
I have not found the market hurt in the two subdivisions you mentioned at all. These are two well established subdivisions, the employment is good in the area. You have a higher than normal foreclosure rate in some of the newer subdivisions near Imperial Oaks because people were borrowing 100% to get into homes and stretching their income allowance as far as they could - but this did not affect the homes in Imperial Oaks as much as the turn over is not as fast there.
Texas really, and Montgomery county even less, suffering as most of the country is.
