Market Activity ~ Nov 24-30, 2014

snowflake_lgGreetings, Property Blotter readers!  OK, will go out on a limb and say that things are slowing down a bit.  I call this the Holiday Black Hole : )  I do business this time of year every year because people either Buy or Sell for so many reasons… most not having to do with the weather… and time of year often plays into the desire to accomplish something (by moving) at or around the time of the turn of the year.  Anyway, I decided that for myself a long time ago, and so it is ; ) But most people take their minds off real estate at this time of year and put them on family, friends, and the things that really matter in Life…  some of us just have “dual duty” in helping to make changes that house the family and friends that we Love, while decorating and toasting with Loved ones all at once!  …and that’s plenty of fun too.

Here is your Latest Market Data: Last week in Lake Oswego we saw 9 New properties enter the market, 10 move to Pending status, and 8 “Closed”/Sold.

Market Activity Nov 10-16, 2014

Last week in Lake Oswego had some interesting data. There were 11 new listings, 22 pending sales, and just 8 closed sales. What I find interesting is the large number of pendings compared to the new listings. It’s obvious that those who are in the mood to buy want to move in before Christmas, and those who want to sell are not is no much of a hurry with the holidays at hand. Also of note is the short market time of the pending sales. This next week or two will be a good time to list a home for sale to take advantage of the pre-holiday rush.

Market Activity ~ Oct 13-19, 2014

Hello to each of our Property Blotter readers from the big, happy family here at the Blotter! We’re all still amazingly busy, and/but as I said before, Fall is in the air. Peoples’ attention wanders… Halloween, Thanksgiving, and yes… that other big holiday are on everyones’ minds. Yet, Fall and Winter can be fantastic times to buy a home. People with their homes on the market generally really want to sell. If you’re selling, people looking at this time of year really tend to be serious about buying!

Here is your Latest Market Data: Last week in Lake Oswego we saw 16 New properties enter the market, 22 move to Pending status, and 14 “Closed”/Sold! Interestingly, 11 out of those 22 New ones are Condos or Townhomes.

Ok, Linda here signing off/running out the door to help more clients!

Market Activity Sept 8-14, 2014

It certainly feels like the waning days of summer with the crisp fell of fall in the evening air. Our market continues to be strong, although less active as it was over the summer. Last week in Lake Oswego we had 20 new listings, 17 houses go into pending status and 7 sold/closed sales.

News & Notes

Here is the latest data for you on the overall Portland area, as well as specific Lake Oswego/West Linn (RMLS lumps them together) numbers:

The latest real estate numbers in Portland and the Lake Oswego/West Linn areas for August are in. There’s a mixed bag of improvement generally over last year, and/but continued slowing in August, as in July, from the months prior.

According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area  August, 2014:

  • At 2,586, August Closed Sales dropped 3.4% from the month prior (July), and 1.4% from August of 2013.
  • There were 3,581 New Listings in August which was 4.6% higher than August 2013, but down a whopping 9.4% from the month prior.
  • The Average Sale Price in August of $340,000 was down exactly $4,470 from the month prior. The first eight months of 2014 are logging an Average Sale Price of $332,600, which is up 7.6% over the same time period in 2013.
  • August Pending Sales (accepted offers), at 2,704, were down 3.5%  from the month prior. They were also slowing in July, which indicates fewer offers being made. That said, the Pending sales for August are up 3.4% over August 2013 .

__________________________________________

In Lake Oswego and West Linn we have some slowing in New Listings from July, and exactly the same number of Pending Listings…which is interesting :  )  The number for Closed Sales (how many were actually completed during August) is down a bit. The number of days it is taking for a property to sell is shrinking… which is a Good thing! As always, the Average Sale Price is higher than Portland Metro numbers. This is because of the percentage of high dollar homes, and does not mean that you can’t find reasonably priced homes here as you can see from our weekly Market Activity Reports.

The combined areas of Lake Oswego and West Linn  for August reported:

    • 531Active Listings
    • 185 New Listings
    • 148 Pending Sales
    • 134 Closed Sales
    • An average Sale Price of $520,200.
    • Average Time on the Market: 57 Days
