plymouth: February 2009 Southeast Michigan Market Report - 03/19/09 11:24 PM
Hard to believe, but we're nearly done with the first quarter of 2009 and the Spring selling season is upon us.
The good news is home sales in 2009 continue to outpace 2008 levels in Southeast Michigan. February sales in Wayne County were up 18.4%, Oakland 12.3%, Livingston 27.9% with an overall increase across the MLS of 16.5%.
Another good piece of news is that the inventory of homes and condos is way down. Last Summer I had "Search over 70,000 homes..." on my website. Today when I checked the MLS, there were less than 50,000!
Average days on the market … (2 comments)

plymouth: Free Money When You Buy A Home...Details on the $8,000 Tax Credit - 03/12/09 04:43 PM
If you've been renting an apartment or leasing a home for awhile in Northville, Plymouth or the surrounding area, this might be the perfect year to buy your first home.

In addition to the low interest rates and great deals out there right now, the big advantage to buying before the end of 2009 is the $8,000 tax credit enacted by Congress this year to stimulate the housing market. Unlike the 2008 credit, the 2009 tax credit does not have to be paid back.
Here's a great video about the First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit with answers to … (1 comments)

plymouth: January 2009 Market Report - 03/01/09 10:26 AM
I know, its the first day of March, but better late than never.
The January statistics issued by our local MLS Realcomp indicated home sales continued their upward trend. In fact, sales increased 25.7% over January 2008.
Most home sellers who don't have to sell are staying put or leasing until things start to recover. Most homes on the market are well priced and inventory is down 21.1% over January 2008.
The first-time home buyer market remains strong and should continue with the recent passage of the $8,000 credit for first time buyers, which unlike the 2008 credit, … (4 comments)

plymouth: December 2008 Market Report - 01/30/09 07:28 AM
Residential sales ended 2008 up 19% higher than 2007 with December's strong finish. In fact, according to Realcomp, every county in the entire MLS showed increased sales and pending sales, which bodes well for 2009. Sales for the entire MLS during December 2008 were up 31.6% over December 2007, reflecting the 12th straight month of growth. Strong 2008 starter home sales (those priced under $125K) were up 61% over 2007 due in large part to affordable home prices and low interest rates. Even though December's inventory was down over 18% over December 2007, the supply of homes remains greater than the … (2 comments)

plymouth: Plymouth MI Ice Festival Wrap Up - 01/27/09 04:44 PM
The 2009 Plymouth International Ice Sculpture Spectacular is a wrap! Warmer weather on Friday probably worried organizers, but cold weather was back on Saturday....and so were the crowds! The local economy had an impact as there were fewer ice sculptures, particularly in front of local merchants. Also missing this year were the live reindeer. Here's some photos showing the highlights: This Saturday, January 31st is Northville MI 4th Annual Fire & Ice Festival running from Noon to 4 PM.

plymouth: At Long Last...Sheldon Road Underpass Opens - 12/12/08 09:19 PM
After two long years of construction and road closure, the Sheldon Road Underpass opened with fanfare this afternoon.
Sheldon Road connects Plymouth to Northville and provides convenient access to the M-14 expressway. Because of train traffic through Plymouth, it was decided an underpass under the tracks near M-14 would be the best way to alleviate traffic backups waiting for trains.
The two year road closure was a major pain in the neck for many people, including me since my office is in Plymouth. Thank goodness that's behind us! … (0 comments)

plymouth: Reflections in the Rearview Mirror - 10/30/08 10:39 PM
Two months ago, I started using a new Blackberry Curve. Besides being a great telephone/email tool, it has a halfway decent camera. So in early September, I launched a photo blog to highlight the places and things I see in my real estate travels. I haven't documented anything too wild and crazy so far, but I have seen some interesting things.Here are some of my favorites the two minute duck parade offered me a chance to transfer my irritation from my car being stopped into a photo op catching the Sturgis or Hell sign at the Plymouth Chili Cook-off finding Plymouth … (3 comments)

plymouth: September Market Report - 10/25/08 01:42 PM
As if the Michigan economy didn't have enough challenges, the past month of national and world financial chaos certainly hasn't helped. Even with all those challenges, the Southeast Michigan counties of Wayne, Oakland, Livingston, and Macomb all experienced higher sales volumes than last year for the month of September. Depending on the zip code, the number of September sales in Plymouth increased 48.5%, Livonia between 30-54%, Northville 15-175%, Westland 22-100%, and Canton 27-29%. However, sale prices are continuing to decline. The good news is that between the higher number of sales and Sellers choosing to wait out the market and not … (1 comments)

The 13th Annual Great Lakes Regional Chili Cook-off and Motorcycle Show took over Downtown Plymouth, Michigan on Sunday, October 5th. Sponsored by Motor City Harley-Davidson, the event featured live entertainment, a dog costume contest, children's activities, and performances from area dancers.
