cary nc real estate: Raleigh-Cary #1 Real Estate Market to Watch in 2012 - 01/31/12 03:24 AM

 
 
Having just written Cary Real Estate Market Show Signs of Recovery yesterday I am pleased to announce that Inman agrees with our local market assessment.  In fact Inman predicts that the Raleigh-Cary Real Estate Market will outperform all others in 2012!  I'm not surprised.  In 2006 when the bubble burst analysts predicted we'd be the last market in decline and the first market to recover!
 
 The assessment was based on a number of factors including:
 above-average price appreciation a flourishing job market a high rate of sales in proportion to population a high level of home affordability low … (2 comments)

cary nc real estate: Cary Real Estate Market Show Signs of Recovery - 01/30/12 04:45 AM
 
The real estate market in Cary is starting to show signs of recovery.
Inventory is now stabilizing and home sales are starting to level off rather than continue to decline. That said, here is a look at the current real estate market in Cary. So, what is going on that's affecting the market? 1. Families relocating to this area are finally selling their homes in other areas in order to relocate. 2. Downward pressure on real estate prices has made areas closer to Research Triangle Park more affordable. The Median Priced Home in Cary is currently $220k. 3. Unemployment … (2 comments)

cary nc real estate: How much does it cost to run the Town of Cary? - 01/28/12 04:26 AM

There are many municipalities in the Wake County area.  As a resident of the Town of Cary we maintain the lowest property tax rate in Wake County with the highest quality of life.As a citizen you always wonder if the Town is efficient and staying above water?  We all remember when Sonny Bono's town in California went bankrupt.  .
 
Here are a few interesting trends: 
 
Cary has $20 million in required reserve, $39 million of four month worth of operating costs, and $17 million available for pay-as you-go capital. The Town of Cary has issued no new … (0 comments)

cary nc real estate: Waverly Place in Cary is Really Getting a Facelift! - 10/28/10 02:45 AM
Back in 2007 I wrote Waverly Place in Cary, NC will get a Facelift.   With the slowdown in the real estate market the project didn't quite launch as quickly as expected.   Thanks to RP Realty of Beverly Hills, California this project has been revived and the re-development is proceeding.

cary nc real estate: Cary NC Luxury Market Conditions 2010 - 10/27/10 04:50 AM
I've recently had the pleasure of working with Buyers looking for a Luxury Home in Cary.  Just last weekend I showed a home in Preston and the Listing Agent sent me an email asking for additional feedback to my comments on why the home we viewed did not compete with the other homes on the market based on price and updates that are needed. 
Sellers need to pay attention.  In Cary there is a tremendous amount of competition in this price range.  In Cary Area 5,10 alone there are 18 homes for sale and, in 2010, only 2 homes between 1M and … (2 comments)

It's that time of year again - the time when the market slows down a bit, the kids are back in school, and we get to take a look at where the market has been and where it's headed. 
What is going on with the real estate market in general?
Gas prices are at an all time high, lending institutions are in total disarray (most recently we can point to the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, aquisition of Merrill Lynch), the US housing market is in serious trouble in a number of areas in the country, and the stock market itself was … (34 comments)

cary nc real estate: Active 55+ Having a Ball! - Well Maybe! - 07/18/08 03:14 PM
As many of you know I work with Active 55+ Seniors that are moving to the Triangle on a regular basis.  I had 3 inquiries just this week.  The Triangle is so popular for retirement because the housing is affordable and the taxes are reasonable too(less than 1% of the assessed value and we only have assessments every eight years). 
With all due respect I couldn't help but pass this video on to my fellow Senior Residential Real Estate Specialist (SRES) experts and any of the clients that may be considering a move to the Triangle.  Yes, Realtors have a sense … (10 comments)

I have a listing appointment on Tuesday to discuss the Marketing of a Townhome in Cary Park.  I've sold several in the area but the market has shifted dramatically since last year.  This particular Townhome is just a few years old, in a great location, built by a reputable builder, and has been listed through a limited service company for two months with no showings.  The seller, who used to be a Broker, has tried a number of things to get the property moving to no avail. That said, I thought I'd gather my thoughts and write a Market Conditions Report … (9 comments)

I am so excited I can't stand it! Yes, I'm a "techy geek" and I just love being on the cutting edge.  Two weeks ago I attended the CRS 206 Technology Course  and I just had to have the Flip Video.  Our instructor, Mike Selvaggio, did a quick demo and it was love at first sight!!  The Flip Video seems incredibly simple and easy to use and takes up to 60 minutes of videos.  So, I ordered one the same day I got back from the class.  CNET has a gadget blog where they posted a slideshow on the Flip Mino … (64 comments)
