kitsap county: Bremerton Real Estate Market Data 2007 vs 2008 - 01/29/09 08:51 PM
Bremerton : During the year of 2008 there were 794 homes sold in Bremerton with an Average Sales Price of $243,507. I would rather use Median and for 2008 the Median Sales Price was $229,950. The Average Market Time was 88 days and the Median Market Time was 63 days. Homes sold really close to the list price during 2008. Average list to average sale ratio for these 794 homes was 97.77% while the Median list to sale ratio was 99.98%. It seems that we are pricing property correctly. So how is that pricing compared to the year 2007?

kitsap county: Seller's [Move-up Buyers] Advantage Plan | Selling in Kitsap County | Bremerton | Silverdale | Port Orchard | Poulsbo - 11/19/08 02:51 PM
Taken from the new Web Site - Seller's [Move-up Buyers] Advantage Plan which is almost complete... Your question might be, "Can you be a move-up buyer in a buyer's market?" If you have a home to sell to move up to another home in Kitsap County, this may be the very best time. Your current home may have lost some value, but the "move up" home you have your eye on, which is larger and in a higher price range has lost some value too, probably more in comparison. Did you know that with my Move-Up Buyer's Advantage Plan

Researching areas in Kitsap County is a priority of mine as a real estate professional in the area.

While driving around town yesterday I had my radio turned to KIRO and was listening to their information on the flood damage. They had a person on who was with the Washington State Emergency Management Division.
