I am a Terrible Blogger and the Real Estate Business has Been Fantastic
Okay, I just don't have a lot of time to Blog. I am working full time as a Realtor. My partner, Georg and I have only had about two weeks of "slow" time this year and blogging didn't even occur to me! Year-to-date, Georg and I have closed 24 sales. We currently have another 4 under contract. This has been a tremendously exciting year for us; for our clients and for our great company, Coldwell Banker McKenzie Associates.
I just sent out a few hundred e mail flyers to Brokers across Kitsap County, alerting them to the below Open House this Sunday. For the first time, I had an agent in Poulsbo e mail me, asking that I remove her from my list. The irony is that another agent in Poulsbo received an e mail flyer for my 5 Acre Listing in Poulsbo announcing a price adjustment just this Wednesday. She forwarded the flyer to her clients. I met them at the property yesterday and returned to my office to find an offer from them. We are now under contract!
Success in this demanding business means doing what is right for our clients and that means being thoughtfully creative, present, persistent and committing to a work ethic worthy of our client's trust and confidence.
On that note, come visit my open house this weekend for our new listing in Fort Ward!

We currently have another five homes under contract, four of them our listings. Below are a few of the homes we have sold!

The Residential and Condo Markets are Picking Up!
The Fall 2009 uptick in sales that we saw in both the condo and residential markets is definitely sustaining itself, but barely; with 5 sales over the same period for last year in the residential market. The "over a million" range has picked up dramatically and the inventory in the $400,000 to $500,000 range has dropped off, with a large number of buyers competing for very little product. Georg and I just put two of our listings in the $500,000 range under contract, giving us four properties in the $400,000 to $500,00 range currently in escrow. If you are shopping in this range, get pre- approved (e mail me for lender recommendations) and set yourself up with our high tech, Coldwell Banker Personal Retriever system that will allow you to see all new inventory as it hits the market. This will give you a tremendous advantage over other buyers waiting for a phone or e mail from their realtor.
Inventory should start to pick up in the coming weeks.
