Market Report - Waterfront Home Sales

These days, more folks are heading out to lakes, rivers and natural swimming sites to beat the record soaring temperatures. After spending a blistering afternoon in cooling water, home buyers start dreaming about year-round living on waterfront. Some want easy access to boating and active water sports, while others want a peaceful place to enjoy a relaxed, meditative environment. Whether it's a river, bay, creek or pond, waterfront homes have a built-in natural asset many buyers are seeking.

Environmental regulations, and limited inventory, make this a specialized market. Buyers - and sellers - of waterfront properties should work with an experienced broker who understands the unique challenges of waterfront property. Here is a brief Market Report for Clark County Waterfront Properties:

That's quite a jump in asking price versus most recent solds for waterfront homes... is this a real market value increase or sellers dreaming?

Nope, short supply makes them quite desirable right now. The price always jumps up when the weather heats up. Ha.

Elizabeth Weintraub Sacramento Real Estate Agent, Top 1% of Lyon Agents & Amanda S. Davidson - Great observations - you identify an interesting trend. As Debb observed, the weather is apparently a factor. Checking the numbers again confirmed there was a big jump in the Active Average Price due to an influx of luxury properties just in the past 30 days. Solds are shown as an average over 3 months, (back when we still had cold weather). The Average Sales price also jumps in July compared to May. Thanks for the comments - I appreciate knowing someone is paying attention to my graphs!
