The Good, The Less Bad, and the Ugly

The Good

Blog 007Some of the best barbeque you’ll find in Oregon is right here in Lake Oswego. Pine Shed Ribs has been named one of the 10 best barbeque restaurants by the Oregonian (the only one so named in the Southwest Metro area), and THE BEST barbeque in PDX by Portland Monthly. Located at 17730 Pilkington Rd, this little restaurant offers up mouth watering beef and pork ribs, brisket, pulled pork, chicken and great traditional sides like baked beans and coleslaw. I particularly like the outdoor seating on a nice day. My suggestion: get yourself on down there and check it out.

The Less Bad
It was reported this past week that underwater homeowners (those who owe more than their homes are worth) are down 42%. This got me curious about how that is currently reflected in the Lake Oswego housing market, and it is startling. In the last 12 months 73 homes were sold as shortsales (sold for less than the mortgage owed) and 40 were sold as bank foreclosures. In the 12 months prior to that 79 were sold as shortsales and 101 were sold as bank foreclosures. Today is substantially better with just 6 houses on the market as shortsales and 2 as bank foreclosures. Are we seeing the end of the distressed housing? I hope so, for all of our sakes.

The Ugly
Blog 009I am at war with moles in my yard! I love to work in my garden investing my time and my money. So finding the lawn pretty much plowed up by these little creatures is annoying. I refuse to poison them as a result of the great squirrel catastrophe of 2010. My current method involves Juicy Fruit gum. It seems to be working, but not 100%. If you have any suggestions, I would be grateful.

Have a great week!
Dianne

Loan Opportunity

nfculogoI recently became aware of a loan program that caught my attention enough that I want to get the word out.

 

Navy Federal Credit Union is offering 100% financing to it’s members.  This is a remarkable loan product with no Purchaser’s Mortgage Insurance.   It is available to anyone who is a member of Navy Federal.

 

Who is eligible to join Navy Federal?  Members and veterans of our armed forces: Navy, Army, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard, but also those who work in the Department of Defense.  In addition, family members of these veterans can join:  grandparents, grandkids, siblings, spouses,  and children.

 

This means that you don’t have to be a veteran yourself.  If your Mom or grandfather is a veteran, they can join Navy Federal and then you can too.

 

I come from a family with lots of veterans, but also lots who are not.  When I found out about this program, it really made my day.  You see, my son is a Marine Veteran.  He will be able to use his VA benefit to buy his first home with 100% financing, but my daughter is not a veteran.  I had assumed she would have to save her down payment and closing costs, which means home ownership is still a few years away.  Now I know otherwise.  As a Marine veteran, when her brother joins Navy Federal, she can too.  And then she can obtain 100% financing and become a home owner much, much sooner.

 

So you can see how I want to get the message out that this program is available.  Our veterans deserve our admiration and support for their service.  I also know from personal experience that the family of our men and women in the armed forces also serve.  We worry, we support, we comfort, and now we can garner some benefits as well.

 

Please visit the Navy Federal Credit Union website to learn more by clicking here.  You can also call them directly at 1-800-842-6328.

 

And when you are ready to go find that house with your Navy Federal loan, please give Linda or myself a call, we are here to help.

Here is last week’s real estate activity for Lake Oswego:
20 newly listed properties
17 properties with offers accepted
12 properties that closed and are officially sold.

I would also like to pay tribute to Martin Luther King, a great man who 50 years ago showed us the meaning of freedom. He was a truly great American.

Featured Neighborhood: Holly Orchard

Lake Oswego has 25 specific neighborhoods, each with its own neighborhood association. The City encouraged this organization to allow specific areas of town to have effective communication for decision making and planning. Today I want to feature Holly Orchard.

Blog 002Holly Orchard is conveniently located. People who live in this area have quick access to I-5, Hwy 217, Boones Ferry Rd, and Country Club Rd. Costco and Winco are about 5 minutes away. Yet, it’s a quiet area. The boundaries are Carmen Dr on the South, Botticelli on the North, Fosberg Rd on the West, and Hotspur on the East. This neighborhood is small in comparison to others in Lake Oswego. The by-laws of Holly Orchard were adopted in 1988.

Some Highlights
Carmen HouseThe first house I ever listed and sold when I got my real estate license in 1987 was in Holly Orchard, so the neighborhood holds a special place in my heart.

The oldest house in Lake Oswego is in Holly Orchard. The Waters Carmen house was built in 1855 and is still owned by his descendants.

One of Lake Oswego’s few gated communities is in Holly Orchard, Taylors Crest. Not only does this development have gorgeous, luxury homes, but its a lively community with a swimming pool.

Holly Orchard hosted one of the Portland area’s first street of dreams in 1980.

Real Estate in Holly Orchard
Blog 001Being a small neighborhood, there are not many homes for sale at any given time. Currently on the market there is one condo, one townhouse, and 3 detached, single-family homes. The values range from the 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath condo that is listed for $235,000, to the luxury, 1980 Street of Dreams house that is listed for $749,900. Along with the 5 active listings, there are 4 houses in pending status with accepted offers that have not yet closed, and 24 homes that have sold in the last 12 months.

photoStreet of Dreams then and now
Sundew was home to the Steet of Dreams in 1980 and 4394 Sundew Ct is currently for sale. Listed with Rebecca Walter of Redfin (rebecca.walter@redfin.com, 503-255-2431), this house was a showcase for luxury and the latest in design ideas of its day. It has 4881 square feet that includes 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The floorplan is centered around a central atrium that floods the house with natural light. Priced at $749,900, the house will be held open this Saturday, August 24th, from 1 to 4. For specifics about this property, click here.

So why would someone want to consider living in Holly Orchard? Because it is in a superb location for convenience, yet it’s quiet. The house options include affordable condos and townhouses, but also include a luxury, gated community, as well as the exceptional designs of Street of Dreams living.
