** An note of interest: in searching for a personal client I found that there are currently only 6 listings in the $300K range for Newcastle.  When I added the Issaquah School District criteria, there is only one home at $399K.  The rest of the 24 listings start at $649K and upwards. The great news is that most of the short sale/forclosure inventory has been getting soaked up in the past two months.

Status of Newcastle Pending Sales

Posted by Susan Moore No Comments »

On March 8th, I reported that 19 sales had turned to pending sales in Newcastle since Feb 1st.  In continuing to track those sale, 2 have since sold and 16 are still pending.    There is a lot of national news that states that a majority of the housing pending sales are in the foreclosure market and have a very small closing ratio.  The good news for Newcastle WA, is that of those 19 pending sales, all are moving forward toward closing, with the exception of only one.  I will continue to track these sales to give you the best eye on our market.

Newcastle’s Pending Home Sales have Increased

Posted by Susan Moore 1 Comment »

Over the past months, Newcastle’s monthly home sales have ranged in the single digits.  The month of February showed 4 home sales for Newcastle.  But a bit a good news is that 19 homes went Pending in Newcastle since February 1st. Those close dates may range on the average anywhere from 30 -75 days but this is definitely a bit of good news for Newcastle homeowners.  We have been struggling to compete with several unfortunate  short sales and foreclosures.  It’s tough to be angry about those, it’s a tough spot to be in to have to sell our home; at any price.  Unfortunately those short sales are now our comparables though.  Luckily for everyone, it looks like many of those homes, along with several others on the market from $300k to $1.3K are being snapped up by purchasers.  Thanks to those folks who can still get a loan!   And many thanks to the homeowners in Newcastle who are still continuing to sustain and increase their property values with upgrades, improvements and repairs.  Hopefully this has been a temporary set back in property values and we’ll soon be on our way to a bit of recovery. More later this week on details of Home Loans and Home Equity loans in our areas.
