Leavenworth Homes Sales – 1st Quarter of 2013

After a healthy increase in sales activity in 2012, I think we all had big expectations for 2013.

Unfortunately, we had a huge storm in December which I think delayed sales at the beginning of the year. (For example this January only 2 homes closed compared to 8 the previous year.)

Here’s a great video of the snow and the down trees for those of you not familiar with the storm. (Closed roads, down trees and power outages make for poor showings.)

Looking at all three months of the 1st quarter of 2013, it is mixed bag.

The number of closed sales is clearly down.  These dropped from 20 to 14.  (Which is similar to the difference in just January sales as I mentioned earlier.)

The good news is that the number of pending sales this quarter is up significantly from 15 in 2012 to 26 in 2013. I think this is some indication that we will have continued buyer activity in 2013 as expected.

The average price for a single family home in Leavenworth stayed almost even, dropping slightly from $326,000 to $325,000.

However, the median price went up from $273,000 to $289,000.

As we move on into the spring season, I expect that we will see continued strong buyer demand with prices staying flat or possibly increasing slightly.

I don’t see a strong bounce in prices this year like we are seeing in the Seattle market since we aren’t seeing the same lack of inventory that they have there. (But that is a story for another post.)

Everyone Loves Reviews

As small business owners, there is nothing we like more than happy customers.

Online reviews are a great tool for both small businesses to get the word out about the quality of their service but also for consumers who are choosing the best option for a restaurant, a hotel, or a real estate agent.

Using online reviews we have found fabulous restaurants like Tracy’s Crab Shack in Juneau, Alaska or Petra Mediterranean Bistro in Seattle. We even found a great tour company in Thailand that we used for our honeymoon by looking on Trip Advisor.

If you are thinking about hiring a real estate broker to help you find your next home or sell your current home in Leavenworth, we hope you find the online reviews of Leavenworth real estate agents like us helpful.

If you are a past client of ours who has taken the time and effort to review us online or write us a recommendation – thank you so much.  Your kind words mean the world to us.

If you haven’t yet reviewed us, we’d love your help.

There are so many different options for reviewing us – choose your favorite site  from the choices below or better yet…  review us on ALL of them.

Yelp is often considered the king of review sites. Strangely enough we don’t have any Yelp reviews. If you aren’t a regular Yelp reviewer your reviews might be “filtered” – the more businesses you review on Yelp the better.

We would absolutely love a handful of Yelp reviews. Click here to help us out

Google reviews aren’t as famous yet as Yelp, but a review can be really helpful to us in terms of being found on Google. This is easier if you have a Gmail account or use G+ on a regular basis.

You can review us on Google here

Zillow is an online database of homes for sale where consumers can also get info about home values or read reviews of local agents.

We really appreciate all the great reviews that our clients have written about us  over the years.

You can add your review of Allyson here

or write a review for Geordie here.

Linkedin is the social network for business professionals. As such, it is a great place to share recommendations with other professionals.
