While it might be a seasonal up swing but agent "busy" indicators seem to be showing an increased in activity during the last two weeks.  This is "feel" report not a statistical analysis.

Phone activity:  Our office phones are ringing.  Some of the increase is due to some new low priced listings and rentals, but that is still good!  Appointments seem to be increasing in numbers too.

Open Houses:  My last two Saturday open houses have been pretty good with 3 to 4 walkthoughs.

The words  "offer" seems to be heard in conversations.  

Since December, I've seen more "sold" signs - this is somewhat due catch the end of the year tax season.  Plus a few more pending.   We even had one home just listed go under contract within a week. 

Of those sold, we are still seeing sellers getting 90% of their last listing price - probably closer to 95%. 

I thought of this as I was driving by a home for sale this morning at 10am and watched as the potential buyers were walking the grounds.

Currently I have three deals officially in pending, with another one going to be under contract tomorrow.

A small cabin, an older contemporary home, a two year old bi-level, and a half acre lot of land.

I'm busy.  :p

I'm happy.

Will keep working to MAKE it last...

Yeah, investors are starting to lurk about here in Phoenix, that's a good sign that things are beginning to turn. Not mention that the north end of Scottsdale actually went up in value in 2007, it was only by 1%, but none the less it's a sign of improvement.
