I seem to recall the days when we used to say that if we can't get the transaction done by mid to end June, we would have to wait till September.  

With every passing  year the summer period seems to be more active and this year will probably take the cake. I am receiving Letters of Interest from buyers who want the deal done by mid August. While this timeline would be aggressive in the best of times, over the summer it would have been impossible in most years past  - but we are going to do it this year.  

I also have new clients who normally would have waited until September to make a major launch. But we are going to launch over the summer and we will get buyers' attention - especially in North America - but even in Europe.  

Maybe someday things will slow down - I'm not holding my breath.
