Braemar Property Values:  September-October 2016 (Heritage Series)
Seems Mother Nature has whipped up some serious wind gusts in Bristow today.  Guess that's her way of getting the rest of these autumn leaves off of trees.  High speed wind gusts always get my attention when I'm in my home.  I know that houses are designed to have siding be flexible and the roof be able to handle the pressure of the winds, but the noise of it happening, particularly in my home office above the garage always gets me a little nervous.   Nonetheless, here I sit in my home office, listening to those thuds as … (2 comments)

We are well into November, the Presidential election is behind us and it is time to get back to business.  Of course, a Braemar Real Estate Agent like me isn't one to put work on hold.  I've been busy getting my Braemar Property Value Reports together.  This one will detail sales of homes in the Arista Series.  Arista Series homes are the large single family homes built by Brookfield Homes.  The floor plans are:  Allister, Buckingham and Canterbury.
While I knew there were going to be at least a couple sales of Arista homes to report this … (3 comments)

Braemar Reflection Quarterly:  July-September 2016
Can't believe it is is November, though like virtually everyone at this point, I am looking forward to an end to this contentious Presidential election on November 9th.  It is as though the election coverage is sucking me into mental quicksand.  Just the other day, during a trip to meet an appraiser on my own Reflection Series listing at 9684 Tarvie Circle, I realized that I had completely missed doing my quarterly Braemar market reports in October.  Since then I've been playing catch up.  This report is the last of the quarterlies, and it focuses on Reflection … (4 comments)

Yesterday Braemar hosted its fall community yard sale.  Seems every time one of these community yard sales rolls around, I have every intention to participate, but never seem to be able to pull it together.  You won't find me having a problem pulling Braemar Property Value Reports together. This particular report will detail sales of properties built by Ryan Homes for the months of July and August.
There were four Ryan Homes that sold in the last two months.  Two of them were my listings, in a third I represented a buyer.  The sold prices ranged … (2 comments)

The onset of the fall season has brought our temperatures down to the low eighties.  However, if you want to get out and enjoy this weather and the sunshine, do it today.  Looks like we are expecting some rain tomorrow.  Right now, we are going to take a look at the last two months of the Braemar summer real estate market.  This specific Braemar Property Value Report will focus on sales of single family homes built by NV Homes.
There were two NV Homes that sold between the beginning of July and the end of August.  There were … (5 comments)

When I was out and about around town yesterday, I noticed so much fall themed decor.  Seeing the rows and rows of pumpkins at plant nurseries definitely got me in the mood for the fall season.  Of course, before we get too far ahead of ourselves, let's take this chance to look back at the Braemar real estate market's performance in the last two months of summer.  This specific report will focus on sales in the Heritage Series.  Heritage Series homes, for those who may not be familiar, are the mid-sized single family homes, built by Brookfield … (5 comments)

So much going on in Braemar real estate this week.  You wouldn't believe the amount of work that goes into to getting a home to close on time these days.  I've already had two Braemar homes with delayed settlements and narrowly avoided a third late settlement this month.  Perhaps the best news is that a Braemar Short Sale I've been working on since last February sold yesterday.  As it happens, it was an Oberlin model by Ryan Homes.  
Today I have the Braemar Property Value Report for Ryan Homes to tell you about.  This one … (3 comments)

It was another scorcher today in Bristow.  If I were a person of leisure, I would have spent the afternoon enjoying one of our Braemar pools.  Unfortunately, that wasn't in the cards for me today.  That's okay.  I'm used to having a busy calendar with my chosen profession as a real estate agent.  I love my job.
Right now my job is presenting another Braemar Property Value Report.  This one will details sales of homes in the Heritage Series in our neighborhood for the months of May and June.  Heritage Series homes, for those who may … (3 comments)

There has been a lot of activity in our Bramar real estate market in the last few months.  In this edition of the Braemar Property Value Report we will look back at the months of March and April and see what happened with respect to homes built by Ryan Homes.  
To begin with, there were six sales of houses built by Ryan Homes between March and April.  The low sold price was $417,000 and the high sold price was $499,000.  The average of all five sold prices gives us our new average market value for Ryan … (4 comments)

Though we have been living under gray, drizzly skies in Braemar for the past few weeks, the spring real estate market doesn't need sunshine to keep chugging along.  In this edition of the Braemar Property Value Report we will look back to sales of homes in the Arista Series for the months of March and April.  Arista Series homes are the large single family homes built by Brookfield Homes.  The floor plans are:  Allister, Buckingham and Canterbury.

It is time for another Braemar Property Value Report.  This one is specifically for houses built by Ryan Homes in Braemar.  
There were four Ryan Homes that sold in the first two months of the year.  The low sold price was really low at $325,000.  The high sold price was $540,000.  Quite a difference between the bottom and top numbers.   The average of all four gives us our new average market value of $435,000 for Ryan Homes in Braemar.  That is nearly 7.5% lower than last report and 9% lower than last year.  Again, … (4 comments)

There is a sense of optimism in the air in Braemar.  The sun is shining.  The days are getting longer.  And finally, the warmer temperatures may be here to stay.  Looks like some rain is coming our way, so get out and enjoy this while you can.

Spring has definitely hit the Braemar real estate market, but you may not know it after reading this Braemar Property Value Report for Arista Series homes in our neighborhood.  Before we get started, Arista Series homes are the large single family homes built by Brookfield Homes.  The floor plans are:  Allister, Buckingham and Canterbury. 
So you know what an Arista Series home in Braemar is, so what happened in January and February.  (Cue the crickets.)  Nothing.  Just like last report, not one Arista Series home sold.  However, since our market has been fairly stable in terms of value … (3 comments)

The thaw from the blizzard Jonas is still underway.  The snow piles look less intimidating every day, which is a relief.  Eventually this will be nothing more than a memory.
Right now, let's talk Braemar Property Values, specifically those for Ryan Homes sold in the last two months of 2015.  Of course, Ryan Homes are simply the single family homes built by Ryan Homes in our neighborhood.
There were two Ryan Homes sold in Braemar during November and December.  The low sold price was $440,000.  The high sold price was $500,000.  The average of both gives us … (1 comments)

What a difference one single day can make.  I'm referring, of course, to the near fifty degree temperatures we enjoyed in Bristow today that provided a lot of melting for the snow accumulation left by Jonas.  There is grass, mulch and asphalt under that snow and we saw that today.  Hooray.  In my giddiness about the melting snow, I nearly forgot to post this Braemar Property Value Report regarding the last two months of 2015 sales for NV Homes in our neighborhood.  Simply put, NV Homes are the single family homes built by NV Homes … (1 comments)

Unfortunately, like the previous report (September-October 2015) and last year (November-December 2015,) there were no sales to report in the Arista Series.  That leaves us with no information.

Today I decided to double up on my Braemar Property Value Reports.  I just posted one for the NV Homes. Now I'm doing one for the houses in the neighborhood built by Ryan Homes for the same reporting period.  I have to tell you, the news is the same.
There were no sales of any Ryan Homes in Braemar during September and October, just like September and October last year.  However, we do have the last average market value from July and August of $452,400...so at least we have more current information in the recent past. … (2 comments)
