Market time increases

This past January (2009) Bainbridge Island had 12 residential properties close (sell) out of a total of 197 residential listings. In other words, 6 % of the available homes on the market sold last month. The average Days on Market in January 2009 was 166 for those sold properties, in January 2008 the average Days on Market was 95, over a 50% increase in market time…time for seller’s to be patient.
Although Bainbridge has a few distressed properties, we do not approach the levels of foreclosures seen in other parts of the country. December 2008 saw only one foreclosure notice served on Bainbridge Island. Data for January 2009 will be available later this week.

Seeing old post and reports from real estate market clearly shows that current market is far better then this. Results now are good and in some regions demand is more then the inventory.
