By Dana Amihere Capital News Service GREENBELT — Built by the federal government during the Great Depression as a suburban sanctuary for low-income families, Old Greenbelt once again has proven a refuge through an economic crisis of historic proportions.

Sales are greater to date than they've been since 2007, but GHI's General Manager says to wait and see what happens before saying things have turned around.

Ralph pointed to a recent example of how homes tend to do better, even in today’s market, when they are in good condition and are presentable. According to Ralph, GHI sold a home in around two weeks that had been returned to it from a member, and it was priced more than $20,000 higher than some similar sized units. It was a two bedroom frame home that GHI had done a lot of repair work…

After slowing down appreciably in the last several years, first quarter home sales have risen in Greenbelt Homes, Inc. (GHI) in 2012, according to Eldon Ralph, GHI General Manager. "The first quarter sales are definitely better than they have been since 2007," Ralph said in an interview on Thursday. In 2007, GHI sold 22 homes, but the sales dropped to 7 in 2008. Since Jan. 1 of this year, the sales have risen to 14, according to Ralph. The quarter is still in progress and will end on March 31. With a pre-purchase orientation scheduled for Saturday, it is possible the number of sales will go up further yet before the quarter comes to a close. But Ralph thinks it is too early to project whether GHI has turned the corner in regard to home …
