We use the term “months of supply” in real estate to tell us how much inventory of homes for sale we have on the market. The months of supply is the time it would take for all the current inventory to sell if it all sold at the current rate without new inventory coming on the market. What does supply mean in real estate? …
Real Estate at Lake Wenatchee and Fish Lake has really taken off in the last decade. Lake Wenatchee’s popularity comes from the wealth of recreational opportunities (boating, fishing, windsurfing, hiking, snowmobiling, skiing, golfing) and its proximity to the Seattle area. I wrote about Fish Lake real estate in a previous post, so this article will be mostly about Lake Wenatchee. There are two roads …
Leavenworth’s real estate market in the first quarter of 2020 began with the common theme of high buyer demand and low inventory. This is very typical of the Leavenworth area where many sellers take their homes off the market for the winter months and re-list in the spring. While challenging to quantify, we have anecdotal evidence that motivated buyers and their brokers were scouring …
Two big questions I get asked all the time now by home buyers – “Are there more houses coming on the market soon?” “Is there a Leavenworth housing shortage?” People who have been watching the Seattle area real estate market know that Seattle hasn’t had much in the way of inventory in 2012 or 2013 and that shortage of inventory has turned Seattle into …
Every seller we talk to in the Leavenworth market wants a real estate agent who will be aggressive about selling their home or property. That makes sense to us.

But having lived …

It’s spring in Leavenworth and the birds are making nests, the glacier lillies and trillium are starting to bloom and people have put away their skis and dusted off their bicycles. Real Estate yard signs are starting to pop up around the neighborhood too. There certainly are more listings coming on the market every day. But wait… haven’t I seen some of these listings …
Searching for a home in any market can sometimes be a frustrating experience. In the Leavenworth real estate market it is even tougher because there are so few homes for sale. I have seen inventory as high as 150 homes, but this includes Leavenworth to Lake Wenatchee and Stevens Pass and price ranges from $150,000 to $3,000,000. Buyers looking for a cabin under $300,000 …
