astoria: Looking towards to Summer, how is your market? - 04/02/08 10:41 AM
The market in Astoria, Oregon and all of Clatsop County has returned to "normal" following a sharp inventory increase resulting from our December hurricane. I feel that 3 months of declining inventory is positive momentum moving towards our spring (the rain starts to slow here in May) and into Summer. Also, hopefully the Coast Guard buyers will begin to start buying for their spring/summer transfers here.
I'm hearing many areas markets are slowing stabilizing and improving. How's your market as we move into spring & summer? How many months of inventory in your market?

astoria: 1362 Olney Avenue Astoria, Oregon 97103 $177,500 - 03/28/08 11:44 AM
1362 Olney Avenue Astoria, Oregon 97103This Youngs Bay view townhome is truly move-in ready! It's an owner occupied unit, which means it has been very well kept and it shows.

astoria: Does the Astoria Real Estate Market Lag Behind the Online Curve? - 03/27/08 12:55 PM
This article about the shift in advertising revenues from print and other traditional outlets to on-line marketing doesn’t surprise me. I have been preaching to my fellow Realtors about staying ahead of the curve and effectively spending your advertising dollars to the point that many are probably tired of hearing me quote response and effectiveness stats.
With more than 8 in 10 consumers starting their search for a home on-line, how can you afford not to have your home in front of the majority of buyers? Many Realtors are beginning to learn that an on-line presence is not optional if you … (0 comments)

astoria: How to sell your home: Part II - 03/20/08 06:15 PM
Yesterday I went over the first of three critical elements if you want to generate a quick sale in today’s Astoria housing market. You see, contrary to the belief of some Sellers today you want your house “sold” not “for sale”. The second ingredient is product. Our local market on the Oregon Coast is very competitive, especially in Clatsop County. We were cruising along at 8-10 months of inventory, but in the last three months residential inventory has nearly doubled. How does that effect somebody with an Astoria home for sale? It means instead of 20 homes directly completing with yours … (0 comments)

astoria: Today: Astoria Oregon among top 5 retirement destinations - 03/17/08 12:26 PM
Late last week in a segment on retirement destinations, Barbara Corcoran tells Ann why Astoria is among the 5 best places for retirees. In the segment, Barbara pretty much nails the high points of Astoria living, including a revitalized downtown and excellent health care. She does completely miss the mark on housing prices. You won’t find much more than a wood shed for $150,000, as the median home price in Astoria is over $250,000. The market here starts in the low $200k’s, and mid to high $200k’s gets you an average home. Maybe even a Columbia River view home. … (4 comments)

astoria: What will '08 bring? - 01/04/08 11:03 PM
Storm cleanup continues in Clatsop County, many still have tarps covering wind ravaged roofs and most of us won't have any need to look beyond our yards for a firewood supply for the coming year. While the housing market statistically showed signs of improvement through the close of 2007, December proved to be the exception as inventory increased and closed transactions decreased. If you keep in mind December numbers were heavily influenced by the huge storm and holiday activities, market trends indicate that 2008 will be a "rebuilding year". As the market continues to correct, we're starting to see inventory levels … (1 comments)
