Market Activity Report – February 2-8, 2009

Lake Oswego saw 14 new properties hit the market last week.  We had 6 go pending, and 5 that closed.  Looks like some steady activity is continuing.

I think it’s interesting to note that some of the older inventory is moving, and some of the newer inventory is moving rather quickly, relatively speaking, as evidenced by 3 pending sales that had been on the market for over 8 months, and one other achieving pending status in just 7 days!  The other two were on the market for less than 3 months before getting to pending status.  As for sold/closed properties- one of the 5 had been on the market for over 11 months prior to sale, but we had one sell in about 2 weeks, and 2 that had been on the market for 5 &  a just a little over 5 months.

Here is the latest market activity for Lake Oswego (see below the tables for additional notes):

Market Activity for January 26 thru February 1, 2009

Last week’s market activity appears to be falling in line with the painfully slow, but still happening, increase in real estate activity that normally occurs in late January and early February. There were 16 new listings, 5 pending sales, and 3 closed sales.

Market Activity Report – January 19-25, 2009

News today indicates a “Surprise to the Upside” in US housing sales.

Check it out: http://www.actionforex.com/fundamental-analysis/daily-forex-fundamentals/us-home-sales-surprise-to-the-upside-2009012676338/

Here in Lake Oswego we have a total of 20 properties newly on the market as of this last week, and 7 pending sale as of the same week. I culled any property listed as “new” that had not been off the market for at least 30 days, and many of those categorized as such below are brand new listings.

Here is the latest market activity for Lake Oswego (see below the tables for additional notes):

Market Activity for January 12-18, 2009

Here is your market activity report for last week. There are 17 new listings, 9 pending sales, and 2 closed sales. When I did my search for new listings the report originally contained over 50 properties, which seemed way high to me. So I explored the market history on each of them and found that only 17 were truly new listings and all of the rest were old listings that were pulled and then re-listed with new RMLS numbers to “refresh” them. It’s a common practice to stimulate sales activity. However, I think it is helpful to see what is a actually a new listing versus this marketing technique. I can not promise that time will always permit me to take this extra step, but when I can, I will. I was also pleased to see 9 pending sales, which is a bit of a gain over what we were seeing in the holidays.

Market Activity Report- January 5 – 11, 2009

Activity is picking up as evidenced by the number of new listings below. However, I’ll caution that roughly half of these are “freshened” listings, and though I like to pick through them and only display the truly “new”, scheduling did not allow me to do that for you today.

Your Realtor can answer any questions regarding a property’s history, and I’d be happy to advise you on that as well should you not have your own resource, and find something of interest below.  Suffice it to say though, that the new year is providing inspiration to home sellers, and this is fairly common every year.

Here is the latest market activity for Lake Oswego (see below the tables for additional notes):

Market Activity Report for December 15-21, 2008

It’s Christmas, there is a foot of snow on the ground, and, yes, the market is slow. It is very typical that during the two weeks that kids are out of school and families are gathering, that the market creeps along. I believe the market will pick up when the holidays are over. In the mean time, here is your market activity report for December 15th to December 21st.

Market Action Report for November 20th

Data represents activity from November 10th to November 20th.

DOM (days on market) represents cumulative days and may represent more than one listing period.

Of particular note, to me, was finding the closed sale at 2870 Park Rd. This was a 1973 built home that was described as a cosmetic fixer. With 2380 square feet, it’s a nice size home and in a very nice neighborhood, Palisades. What is remarkable is that it sold in just 4 days and for $17,000 more than the asking price. It shows that when a property is priced right it will sell quickly, and perhaps for more than the list price. Our market still has a pulse.
