Market Activity Dec 28-Jan 3, 2016

Happy New Year! Yep, I love the holidays. Yep, I’m glad that they are over. I like the community of sharing, being with family and friends, and cherishing the spirit of the season, but I also have buyers looking for houses. It is actually quite frustrating to have clients I am trying to help and there is just not a house on the market that suits their needs. So I am excited to have the holidays behind us and to be able to watch the inventory of available homes start to grow. I don’t think that I’m the only one. I think there are a lot of buyers ready to go and I predict the selling season will be in full swing by February. Exciting!

Last week in Lake Oswego we had 7 new listings, 13 go to pending status, and 16 closed/sold properties.

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:
