Eagle River Market update July 21, 2009

by Eric Bushnell

We finished another great weekend and now the weather has started to change.  We have seen some much needed rain.  But how does this effect the local market?

If it sunny everyday then buyers just want to have fun, they go fishing, hiking and explore this wonderful area.  When the weather gets a little cold we see people start to worry about winter, BTW, school starts in one month. 

This means that buyers are going to be seriously looking.  Inventory levels, homes available for sale, are dropping.  This is a good thing.  Interest rates were down again today. 

The recap for Eagle River is this, 8 homes pended, and there were 6 closing.  several of these homes were in the $600,000+ range.  The average home price pended in the last 30 days was $369,000.  That is moving up from the first half of the year.

All in all the Eagle River real estate market is doing well, but then Eagle River has always done better than other areas.  Eagle River is the place to live.

Eagle River Market update July 16, 2009

by Eric Bushnell

Here is a brief over view of the Eagle River Real Estate Market.  In the last week we experienced some very nice weather, and the annual bear Paw festival was underway.  What we saw was a slow down in sales as well as new listings on the market as people took time out to have fun. 

The overall inventory levels fell slightly as fewer homes came on the market and nine homes closed successfully.  there have been several pending properties this week and I see many Realtors out showing property. 

The strongest sales activity has been under $350,000.  However, I have seen several buyers looking at homes in the upper $400,000.

Interest rates continue to be steady, ranging from 4.75% for 15 year mortgage to 5.375% for a 30 year mortgage.  Please contact Aaron Gray at Homestate Mortgage, (907) 689-6456, for more information on available rates and programs.
