Bainbridge Real Estate Holding Steady...

That is if you’re not selling raw land.
A glimpse of our current market activity shows that we are just about the same as last year for volume.As of Tuesday, July 28th, Bainbridge had 293 active residential listings with 40 of those listings under contract (13.7%). Last year at this time we had 338 active residential listings with 43 of those listings under contract (13%).
The condo market is moderately improved this month: 128 active with 9 under contract (7%). Last year we had 124 condos on the market with 5 under contract (4%).
Land is another story. Land loans are expensive and harder to find. There are good, solid lenders with land loans available, but the loan rates are several points higher than conventional residential loans.
We have 81 land listings on Bainbridge right now with 0 under contract. Last year we had 89 land listings with 7 under contract (8%).
Well, our real estate market isn’t as hot as our weather (101degrees today?!), but it is perking right along.
Speaking of the weather…please take special care to drink plenty of fluids and do not leave children or pets unattended in cars or any place they can over heat. Check in on elderly friends and neighbors to be sure they are OK.
Stay cool…take care.
