Great Buys on Lakes Region Homes!

Posted 02-22-2013 at 11:04 AM by Roy Sanborn



There were 54 residential home sales in January in the Lakes Region communities covered by this real estate market report. The average sales price was $189,399 and the median price came in at $169,430. I thought that was pretty dismal until I looked at last January’s sales numbers and realized we only had 48 sales then. Even though last January’s average sales price was higher at $295,068 and the median...

Lakes Region of NH Waterfront Sales Report January - 2013

Posted 02-19-2013 at 03:31 PM by Roy Sanborn



It seems like every day you hear about something unexpected happening. Like the unexpected rise in unemployment claims, or the unexpected drop in the nation’s gross domestic product, or that the Pope unexpectedly is going to step down. Well, two out of three have pretty much become expected. But just to keep it rolling, unexpectedly there was only one waterfront home sold on Lake Winnipesaukee in January....

Posted 02-09-2013 at 02:36 PM by Roy Sanborn




If you are a real estate agent and have sold any waterfront homes on Lake Winnipesaukee then you know who Joe Skiffington is. The lakefront homes that he builds are recognizable no matter what the square footage. Skiffington Homes is one of the preeminent home builders in the Lakes Region with 20 years of experience and over 400 residences constructed on and around Lake...

An Almost Indescribable Winnipesaukee Waterfront Home

Posted 02-08-2013 at 12:49 PM by Roy Sanborn



As REALTORS® we get to see a wide variety of property in the Lakes Region. We see everything from humble cottages and antique capes to stunning condominiums and extravagant waterfront estates. And, these properties vary from being run down, decrepit, and perhaps uninhabitable to extraordinary, exquisite, and amazing. REALTORS® are adept in the use of other adjectives like spectacular, pristine, stellar,...

Ruthlessly Price Your Home

Posted 01-12-2013 at 10:35 AM by Roy Sanborn



The number of residential homes for sale in the Lakes Region of NH definitely took a big drop on New Year’s Day as hundreds of properties listed in the MLS expired without finding a buyer. Memorial services will be held in multiple locations around the Lakes Region. Please check the obituaries as most of the families of the deceased would be appreciative of donations toward their mortgage payments in lieu...

Lake Winnipesaukee, Winnisquam, and Squam November Waterfront Sales Report

Posted 12-15-2012 at 10:02 AM by Roy Sanborn



There were twelve drummers drumming and twelve waterfront sales on Winnipesaukee in November! Maybe ten lords were leaping to get their checkbook and two of the nine ladies that were dancing paid cash? The average sale price came in at $645,917 with a median price point of $587,500. There were eleven pipers standing out on the Meredith Town Docks piping away about the eleven month sales total of 115 transactions...

Lake Winnipesaukee and Winnisquam Waterfront Report - October 2012

Posted 11-23-2012 at 10:42 AM by Roy Sanborn

There were ten Winnipesaukee waterfront homes that changed hands in October at an average sales price of $1.444 million with a median price point of $872,500. That brings our total for the year to 103 transactions at an average sales price of $1.056 million compared to 87 transactions at $1.057 million or the first ten months of 2011. That's a 19% increase in the number of sales which I would say is pretty good considering the state of the economy.

Cowboys, Ghosts, Witches, and Superheroes - Real Estate Costumes?

Posted 10-27-2012 at 12:18 PM by Roy Sanborn

Halloween is just around the corner. Kids will be out Trick or Treating in their scary costumes trying to see who can collect the biggest stash of candy and goodies. I got thinking about some of the classic costumes kids wear and realized that most of these costumes “fit” pretty well on real estate agents. While they may not be as visible as the ones the kids wear, they are pretty apparent once you describe them. Sometimes you see it in the way they act, their mannerisms, and how they conduct business....
