Threat in Construction

Recently I was ask a question by a fellow businessman in the community about my political views on a few items. He asked me if I could pinpoint one thing in my business that was threatened by this economy, what it was, and what was the threatening factor. The reply was simple to me, as Willow Creek Homes has a very good feel on where we stand in this economy.
My answer was this;

"It comes down to one thing, job security...
...If you have job security their really isn't anything else stopping someone who has a ready willing and able desire to build. It is a perfect time to build, even though the housing market is down, so are building costs. People in almost every industry today have a real fear of losing their jobs, and with that fear why would someone
rush out and take on more debt."

If your not familiar with me yet, I am not afraid of a good political debate. Not that I want people to be fearful of a debate, because a good debate can be fun and very educational. I think that is what makes this nation the best nation in the world, freedom of speech and the ability to voice our opinions and make a difference!

Get involved, make a difference!

Thank you for your time,
