Lake Oswego Market Activity Report ~ Jan 4 – 10, 2010

The pace is picking up a bit. According to RMLS, there are 17 truly NEW properties in Lake Oswego this last week, 9 that went to PENDING status, and 8 that SOLD. Interesting to note that of the 17 NEW properties on the market, there are no shortsales in the bunch according to RMLS, and of the 9 PENDING sales, there were 2 short-sales, with another 2 short-sales out of the 8 SOLDS’s. There are a lot of good deals out there that do not fall into the short-sale or bank-owned categories, and Buyers seem to be looking for that “right” house instead of lasering in on short-sales in general. That said, it is hard to tell how many of the “NEW” properties could be teetering that direction. There is a whole different closing timeline to be considered if you get into that situation, so just be aware and consult with your Realtor.

One thing to be aware of is that we are not able to tell in an RMLS listing exactly how far above the “short-sale line” a property’s asking price may be.  There is always the possibility that a property could turn into a short-sale if the negotiated price with the Seller ends up lower than what they owe.  Just sayin’.  Talk with your Realtor about what that could mean for you if you think you may be offering an amount that could bring up this possibility in your transaction.

Anyway, here is the latest market activity for Lake Oswego (see below the tables for additional notes):

Open Houses for Sunday, December 20th, 2009

There are just 8 open houses being promoted in the RMLS for this Sunday.  Not surprising with this being the start of the Christmas week.  All 8 are high-end new construction.  All 8 are also the “perenial opens”:  the houses that seem to be open every Sunday.  I have been in most of them.  They are gorgeous properties.  If you haven’t seen them already, they are worth the drive.

Lake Oswego Market Activity Report ~ Dec. 7-13, 2009

There are 8 truly NEW properties in Lake Oswego this last week (I left two of them in here because they were off the market for 30 days), 6 that went to PENDING status, and 7 that SOLD. I am seeing activity across the board in all price ranges, and in all areas of Lake Oswego.

DETACHD refers to Single Family Detached Residence, MFG refers to manufactured housing, and ATTACHD refers to single-family residences with some portion of the structure attached to another property, but not constituting CONDO ownership. DOM stands for days on market, or the number of days from when the listing became active and when it received an acceptable offer, with CDOM standing for “cumulative days on market” accounting for “refreshed” listings.
