southern maine real estate: Cape Elizabeth Maine Housing and Condo stats for December 2008 - 01/09/09 05:34 AM
Cape Elizabeth Maine real estate remains quiet with 5 transactions occurring in December 08 at an average sold price of 538K. Comparing this to 10 transactions at an average price of 497K in December 2007 one actually sees a year over year price increase of 8% although this number s probably skewed by a high value home selling coupled with a small sample size. With a current inventory of 72 properties the Cape Elizabeth residential real estate market remains slow and will most likely continue this way for the foreseeable future.

southern maine real estate: Southern Maine Real Estate Market Report - 10/11/07 05:30 AM
Finishing the summer strong in the month of August, the Southern Maine real estate markets posted significant increases in transaction volume, 16% in York and 11% in Cumberland, home of Portland Maine.  Average prices were also up in both counties in Southern Maine as well as the mid coast region.  I believe Maine continues to buck the national trend due to the continued influx of baby boomers retiring and buying 2nd homes in the area.    The foreclosures are still up but inventories thus far have managed to stay right where they were 2 years ago.   Just watch out for … (4 comments)
