Overall, the real estate market in Fort Wayne slowed down during the holidays.
Showings were down and buyers were few and far between. Sure, we closed a few and got a few under contract, but overall it was slow.
Amanda and I have been Realtors in Fort Wayne for five years now, so we expected the slow down and were okay with it. We took some time to relax and to work on our goals for 2014.
We thought that after the holidays things would really pick up again.
Then we got dumped on.
We had 11 inches of snow, followed by a deep freeze that saw high temperatures of -11 and -17. Normally the first week of the new year things start moving, but not that week. Everybody was huddled inside and in survival mode.
Then it happened.
The phone started ringing again.
Our listings started to get more and more showings.
Buyers were coming out of the woodwork.
It's nuts and we LOVE IT!
In the last week we've sold multiple listings, have had multiple new listings, and have written offers for multiple buyers.
While we did enjoy a little bit of a slow down, we have been more than ready to get back to the daily grind that is real estate.
We've been more than ready to help existing clients buy and sell as well as take on new clients.
As of right now, January 19, 2014, the Fort Wayne real estate market is NUTS! Our schedules are filling up and we are LOVING IT!
