CLICK ON THE PICTURE FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE HOME:
My partner, Tom Luehmann, and I listed a home in Ballard in January….The result of our successful marketing campaign and contract negotiation was quoted in the New York Times!
The article from February 22nd titled, “Home Prices slid in December in most U.S. cities, Index Shows”, should have highlighted the word MOST. The article features the argument between Economists Robert J. Shiller and Karl E. Case, authors of the famous “Case-Shiller Home Index” on whether or not the U.S. market has reached the bottom. After several paragraphs of point-counterpoint, explanation of the data from various sources, and some rather disappointing projections, we come to the final 3 paragraphs of the article. The majority of readers probably did not even make it to the end of this article and are left with a somewhat slighted view of the market. Nonetheless, you will read about the real life example from OUR area showing that things are certainly not as bad as other areas in the U.S. and that Sellers DO have options in this difficult market.

If January has been any indication of what is to come in 2011, we are in for a pretty good year as this January has been as busy as any time since 2006. While I know our market has plenty of issues still to overcome including short sales, foreclosures, commercial and construction lending, among other things, let me give you some real life examples of how the market in 2011 has hit the ground running…at least so far.
January 12th, 2011: BALLARD: My business partner, Tom Luehmann, and I listed a home in Ballard for $539,990. While priced well, it was certainly on the upper edge of what this Ballard neighborhood could bear. The open house that Sunday yielded nearly 50 groups, not people, groups! Within a week, we had 3 offers and a signed around deal $5,000 over the list price. (Click the Picture for more information)
January 18th, 2011: EDMONDS: I listed a home in the Edmonds Bowl just off 7th and Sprague. A really nice, very unique home, built in 1981 with good views, and quality craftsmanship. Again, we had great buyer/agent traffic through three opens, we received an acceptable offer within a week, and are currently PENDING.

Throughout January 2011: Snohomish County: I have approximately 15 active bank owned listings throughout Snohomish County with several more on the way. Buyers have been fl Continue Reading
