mill valley: Marin County (San Francisco Bay Area) Real Estate April / May 2011 (Pacific Union International Realtors - 05/09/11 03:32 PM
Despite formidable world events over the past few months, the roiling volatility of the equity markets (although things seem to have settled of late), and increased gas prices, the first quarter of 2011 experienced positive trends in many San Francisco Bay Area real estate markets. Properties selling below $1 million, which are over 70% of the closings in the six counties served by Pacific Union International, are experiencing modest to very favorable increases in units sold. In many markets we are enjoying units sold up nearly double the closings in the marketplace from Q1 2009. A refreshing trend which we feel … (0 comments)

Overall, the number of home sales in Mill Valley last month (August 2010) totaled 15 and gave rise to the following averages: an average price of $995,933 and approximately 1,888 sq. ft.

The number of homes sold in the Mill Valley, California real estate market rose once again and Mill Valley's touchstone price band ($1 million to $2 million) posted another solid month. For the most part, buyers now speak confidently about our market as it is truly a unique time in history to buy discounted homes with virtually free money. Nonetheless, recent national media coverage has focussed on the slowdown in the number of sales nationwide, giving some buyers pause. But, Mill Valley is not Detroit or Las Vegas. The first time home buyer tax credit never impacted Mill Valley in a significant … (1 comments)

mill valley: Pacific Union Marin Luxury Homes Report (April 2010) - 04/25/10 10:57 PM
As with many of Marin County's micro-markets, Marin's luxury home market is showing signs of increased velocity and buyer optimism. As reported in previous months, "real buyers" continue to snap up homes in prestige locations such as Belvedere, Ross, Kent Woodlands, etc., along with "value" properties with locational upside, views of San Francisco, southern exposures, knolltop properties. In the $2 million to $4 million price band, sales have eclipsed last year's low numbers, inventory is down significantly and the number of homes with accepted offers (in escrow) is very high. This combination of factors looks promising for continued improvement. And we are not alone - … (0 comments)
mill valley: Pacific Union Mill Valley Real Estate Market Report (April 2010 Home Sales Update) - 04/24/10 09:49 AM
I have been chomping at the bit to write this monthly report as the market in Mill Valley is bursting with positive indicators. The number of homes sold in the Mill Valley, California real estate market rose nearly 50% over the prior month. Mill Valley's touchstone price band ($1 million to $2 million) appears to be striding towards normalcy. Not only is seasonal inventory healthy (with more homes for sale than last year), but so too is the percentage of homes in escrow (see below - it is hard to believe!). With most economic indicators pointing towards recovery, the collective thinking among buyers … (2 comments)
mill valley: Mill Valley CA. Real Estate Market Report (March 2010 Home Sales Update) - 03/18/10 01:29 PM
The number of home sales in the Mill Valley, California real estate market held exactly even in February – 16 trades (February usually has lower sales totals because it is a short month with two legal holidays and bcause January tends to have weather which limits buyer activity). Based on last month’s total sales, we currently have an overall inventory of homes sufficient to last 5.1 months (absorption rate). This number is higher than last month because of the large number of homes that came on the market very recently. As discussed below, however, our touchstone price band is performing very well.
Insofar as the sales and apsorption rate of Mill … (0 comments)

mill valley: Marin County, CA. Real Estate Update — December 2009 (Homes For Sale & Price Ranges) - 12/19/09 10:08 AM
The Marin County, California real estate market approaches the new year with momentum. While the beginning of 2009 was terrible for sellers and the market overall, the latter half of 2009 was quite strong across many market segments, giving brokers and home owners a reason for optimism in 2010. While year over year prices are down in many price segments and locations within Marin, some areas have actually seen prices increase (albeit nominally) year over year. Indeed, I believe that many brokers feel as though absent further crisis, we are at or near the end of the downward cycle - after 3+ years. As for bread and butter homes … (0 comments)
