The Nitrogen Enriched Home

Posted 06-29-2012 at 02:20 PM by Roy Sanborn



I’ve got to admit that real estate agents tend to try and paint the properties they have for sale in the best possible light when they describe them. Well, most agents anyway. There are still plain vanilla descriptions such as “2 Bedroom, 2 bathroom house with 1,512 Sq ft of living space on a 3.62 acre lot. Large attached garage with storage space above it. Land is partially wooded. Basement is partially finished.”...

Indicating Indicators- January Lakes Region Home Sales Report

Posted 02-17-2012 at 10:39 AM by Roy Sanborn



As I was compiling the residentail sales numbers for January for this Lakes Region report, I was a little disappointed in the totals until I looked at January of 2011 which was actually pretty abysmal. While 48 single family homes changing hands at an average sales price of $148,500 doesn’t seem like a banner month, compare that to the 37 sales last January (at an average of $185k) and it looks like things...

A Bit of Optimism in the Air

Posted 01-06-2012 at 07:46 PM by Roy Sanborn



The New Year always seems to start off with a big drop in inventory due to many listing agreements expiring at the end of the year. For the communities listed in this report, we went from 1168 single family homes on the market as of December 1 down to 943 listings as of January 1, 2012. This represents about a 14.5 month supply of homes for sale which would be a much more manageable and healthy...

Homes Have Feelings, Too...

Posted 12-24-2011 at 10:03 AM by Roy Sanborn

There were 60 single family residential home sales in the towns covered by this report in November, 2011. That’s just off the 63 sales last November although the average price was down from $365,623 to just $263,025. There was only one sale over the million dollar mark last month compared to five in November 2010 which contributed to that significant drop in the average sales price. Sales under $200,000 continue to make up over 50% of the transactions while the $300-400,000 range is still...

No, the water's low because the tide is out...

Posted 11-04-2011 at 03:07 PM by Roy Sanborn

As of November 1, 2011 there were 1277 residential homes on the market in the communities in this Lakes Region real estate market report. The average asking price came in at $516,128 with a median price point of $269,900.

Good Deals = Quick Sales

Posted 09-22-2011 at 09:13 AM by Roy Sanborn



Residential homes sales in the Lakes Region communities covered by this market report jumped a healthy 23% in August compared to the same month last year. There were 83 sales last month at an average of $330,718 compared to 67 last August at an average of $411,780. A 23% increase in sales is welcome news but one month doesn’t make a trend. On a rolling twelve month basis we are still off last...

What color is your dream home?

Posted 08-25-2011 at 01:54 PM by Roy Sanborn



According to what I have read on-line, the most popular house color, not surprisingly, is white. All you have to do is look around good old New England and you can see quaint villages full of white houses, churches, and town buildings. According to one article, 37% of homeowners would choose white as the predominate color if they were to repaint the exterior of their home.

I’d say...
