While it might be a seasonal up swing but agent "busy" indicators seem to be showing an increased in activity during the last two weeks.  This is "feel" report not a statistical analysis.

Phone activity:  Our office phones are ringing.  Some of the increase is due to some new low priced listings and rentals, but that is still good!  Appointments seem to be increasing in numbers too.

Open Houses:  My last two Saturday open houses have been pretty good with 3 to 4 walkthoughs.

The words  "offer" seems to be heard in conversations.  

Since December, I've seen more "sold" signs - this is somewhat due catch the end of the year tax season.  Plus a few more pending.   We even had one home just listed go under contract within a week. 

Of those sold, we are still seeing sellers getting 90% of their last listing price - probably closer to 95%. 

I thought of this as I was driving by a home for sale this morning at 10am and watched as the potential buyers were walking the grounds.

If you would like to know more about the Hellertown, Lower Saucon and surrounding area market, please feel free to call me @ 610-7370672 or email me @ judith@judithglamb.com

First and foremost I would like to wish all the residents, local municipality workers and those who visit the borough of Hellertown an very happy, healthy and prosperous 2008!

I took a quick look of our market place and would like to share my findings with you.  I find it comforting that our borough, like most of the Lehigh Valley is holding up pretty well in this market where many areas nationwide are seeing a drastic downturn.

The table below shows a comparison between 2006 and 2007 (Full Year and Sept-Dec).  To keep things simple and compare relatively "like" properties, I used the following criteria:

1. Hellertown Borough
2. Single Family Detached Homes
3. Price Range from $120,000 to $349,000 (eliminated 1 low & 1 high in 2006)
4. Sold properties only (as reported in the Lehigh Valley Multiple Listing Service)

Please Vote - Tuesday Nov. 6, 2007 

Exercise your right to vote this Tuesday!  One local paper states they expect 70% of the registered voters to skip the polls.  Lets prove them wrong.  We might not have the perfect system nor the perfect candidates but that should not excuse us from exercising our right to vote.  Us it or don't complain!  The following links provide significant information - I've tried to keep it as unbiased as possible. 

This appears to be a general checklist for the eastern counties of PA (Berks, Bucks, Montgomery, Lehigh & Northampton).  May not be 100% complete/accurate - I did not see the slot for our township auditor.
