    Market Activity ~ Nov. 19-25, 2012

    The chilly air and even Thankgiving Weekend aren’t stopping real estate activity in Lake Oswego! It is a myth that real estate does not sell in the winter. Though there were not many houses on tour Sunday, I had tons of traffic through my Devon Lane listing & our phones are ringing, as they do every holiday season. As the report shows, we have our usual winter slowing, but activity is steady. There are some really great homes out there, and people are on the hunt!

    Last week there were 6 New on the market, 12 Pending and 9 Sold:

    See below for further details on last week’s Market Activity:

    Our Thanksgiving Wishes

    Dianne and I want to take a moment to thank all of our loyal Property Blotter readers and clients for the confidence and support for our work that you’ve shown through the years. On a day like today, we are humbled and grateful for so many things, and YOU rank high on the list : )

    Sometimes I go on and get all sappy with you on Thanksgiving (that’s just me…. I get emotional when I think of all the things I have to be grateful for!), but this year I’m going to let someone else pull the heartstrings. I’m attachiing a photo and poem from my friend and poet, Sean Reynolds:

    I wish you all;
    Pale hills under a yellow moon
    amber leaves on dark green lawns
    a welcomed chill in the morning air
    cartoon balloons and sweet potatoes
    with little marshmallows and football
    …
    and family and children’s fingers adorned
    with olives and naps on the sofa after
    wine and pie and laughter—sr

    May each of you experience a day of Peace, Abundance, and Love.

    Happy Thanksgiving,
    Linda & Dianne
