Market Activity Report August 8th – 14th, 2016

We’ve had a busy week!
24 new listings, 17 pending, and 21 sold!

Looks like the market has been pretty consistent. However, with school starting we may start to see a dip in activity. I knew a few of my friends are looking to buy homes in Lake Oswego, and may be encouraged to really start looking if they feel like there isn’t as much competition. Having been working with buyers as of late, I completely understand the thought process here.

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:

7 new houses hit the market this week, 17 have gone pending, and 11 beautiful Lake Oswego homes sold. What a great start to the Holidays.

Eve On The Lake

Eve-on-the-LakeWEB-HEADER8

The City of Lake Oswego is hosting its first annual Eve On The Lake. From 8pm to 2am, the event will feature endless hors d’ouvres, dancing, live music with Tom Grant and Shelley Rudolph, photo booths, surprise events during the countdown to midnight, and of course, a midnight champagne toast.

The event is being held at a seriously beautiful location right on the edge of Oswego Lake, 40 N State St, otherwise known as Stickmen Brewery and Skewery. There is a lakeside deck that can actually be used in the winter with plenty of heaters, but subject to weather. From inside there are lovely views of the water, so even if it is cold and rainy or snowy, you can still feel the beauty of the water.

Cost is $69. Proceeds from the event will go to the Red Cross for Hurricane Sandy relief efforts. So you can ring in the New Year and also support an extremely worthwhile cause.

For more info, click here.

What a great way to ring in the New Year!

Linda and I want to wish you and yours a very safe, happy, and memorable New Year,
Dianne
