Debb, our markets are very similar, inventory shrinking, sales decreasing, but values are increasing.  GREAT job, and hope this continues thru the end of the year!

Thanks Q-man.

Hi Kristin - I'm sneaking away for a hike midday. :)

Hi Joan - they are similar. I wrote up to offers on Thursday - and will get a listing out of one of the sales. I'm a happy camper.

Hi Debb, I think the Clark County WA scene is similar to many parts of the country and shows the sellers market. Hopefully things will balance out in the near future.

Hi Debb, that is great news regarding home prices and values. You definitely have shared with us so many of the "Whys" in terms of all that Camas has to offer - natural beauty, great neighborhoods, family friendly and respect for the environment.  What's not to like?

Hi Debb -- while the number of properties sold may be lower than recent months, the lack of inventory and price escalation means that prospective buyers and homeowners thinking of selling need a trusted advisor to assist them.  For Clark County(and beyond) you are the professional who has the knowledge to help them achieve their real estate dreams.

There is always a market in real estate, anything. Go after and nibble, bite off more market share of the activity that is than others in that local list, twist and sell wished you did. Always works with that kind of winning attitude in any real estate market.
