GBAR President David Friedberg has sent a
Letter to the Editor in response to a column that appeared in the March 16 edition of the

the current housing market. In his letter, President Friedberg takes
issue with the media's gloom-and-doom coverage of the housing industry and
challenges the press to do a better job promoting the value of
homeownership and the terrific home buying opportunities available today.
