Market Activity for February 8-14, 2010

Last week brought us 14 new listings, 13 pending sales, and 7 closed sales. I want to point out one of the new listings.  Every now and then something comes on the market that just screams at me that it is a great deal.  The house at 17471 Cardinal does that to me.  It just came onto the market as a foreclosure and is priced at $575,900.  It was built in 1973 and has 3056 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 2 and a half baths.  That all sounds pretty normal as far as values goes.  What makes this house amazing is that it’s on Blue Heron Canal.  This is Oswego Lake waterfront for $575,900.  It looks to be in average condition.  Not all updated with granite and stainless steel, but also not a total dog house.  The last time I saw something anywhere near this price on a canal it was a total fixer.  I think this house is a great opportunity for someone who wants a deal on the lake.
