Kiss Comes to LO

00003493641709There hasn’t been this much excitement over a celebrity sighting in LO since Bruce Springsteen married Julianne Phillips in a midnight wedding at Our Lady of the Lake Church.

On September 14th, Kiss played a charity concert at the home of Rick and Erika Miller on Jantzen Island. I first learned about it when a friend posted on facebook that they had stumbled upon the concert while out on their boat for an evening jaunt. Pretty cool to find a surprise concert.

It turns out that band member Tommy Thayer is the son of James Thayer, now 93, who was a part of George Patton’s 3rd Army that liberated several Nazi death camps at the end of World War II. A military museum is now being build at Camp Withycombe in Clackamas. The new museum, now under construction, is going to be named after Tommy Thayer’s father. It will be the Brig. Gen. James B Thayer Oregon Military Museum.

00003493641728Honoring the U.S. Military is a passion of the band. There is even a possibility that Gene Simmons mother was in one of the camps that Tommy Thayer’s Dad helped liberate.

The event raised $1.15 million for the construction of the museum.

What I like about this story is that Kiss came to town. I mean, come on, it’s Kiss. The other thing I like is that it means LO is a small enough town that it’s a big deal.

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

Whitney Gregoire
I am just super excited to announce the addition of my daughter, Whitney Gregoire, to our team here at the blotter. My Mom was a Realtor here in Lake Oswego for nearly 30 years. I got my license in 1987, and now Whitney has gotten her license as well. I guess it’s in our blood.
