peekskill: My Clients are Celebrities!
- 02/10/11 03:37 PM
About three weeks ago I wrote a rather forgettable blog post about what $335,000 will buy you in Peekskill, New York. I really like to post these sorts of pieces because they are informative and sneakily self promotional (and I kind of lack any shame about promoting myself), but I have to admit that they aren't exactly cutting edge commentary.
Not long after the post went live I got a call from a reporter working on a story on Westchester real estate, and I put her in touch with my clients to help with the story. The report was published in today's New York Post, … (14 comments)

peekskill: What Does $335,000 Buy in Peekskill, NY?
- 01/16/11 02:49 PM
What can you buy in Peekskill for $335,000? It will buy you a pretty arts and crafts colonial with a rocking chair porch, 2 car garage, updated kitchen, and beautiful woodwork like the one our clients just closed on last week. This home has 4 bedrooms, a formal dining room, a woodburning fireplace, lovely landscaping, stained glass windows, a patio, walkup attic, and a dry, full basement. The location is also fantastic, just a 3 minute drive to the Peekskill train station.
I love homes from the 1920's especially when the restoration job allows the original character to remain intact.

peekskill: Peekskill Real Estate Market October-November 2010
- 12/05/10 01:19 PM
This is the market data for September of 2010 for single family homes in Peekskill, and all information is sourced from the Empire access (formerly Westchester-Putnam) MLS.
To say that I am bullish on Peekskill is an understatement.
First, the bad news: after an abysmal September report, I skipped October. I shouldn't have, because there were zero sales in November and I had to combine it with October to have anything to report on. 2 sales with a median sales price of $233,500 is way down from the 13 deals at $305,000 the same period in 2009.
Now, the … (1 comments)

peekskill: Peekskill Dog Splash September 25, 2010 10am-Noon
- 09/13/10 02:23 AM
I have blogged about the Peekskill Dog Park before. It just happens to be the creation of clients of mine. The story is that they got the city to dedicate underused parkland to an attraction that gets dozens of users a week.
In 12 days, the park will have its 2nd annual fundraiser, the Peekskill Dog Splash. It will actually take place at the lake at Depew Park, and all dogs will have a chance to splash around and swim and have a good time. There will be a complimentary dog wash station, so your wet dog will go home smelling fresh and … (8 comments)

peekskill: Peekskill, NY Real Estate Market August 2010
- 09/12/10 12:21 PM
This is the market data for August of 2010 for single family homes in Peekskill, and all information is sourced from the Westchester-Putnam MLS.
OK- here goes:
Prices are way down. Only 1 home sold, so all statistics are at the mercy of a number too small to be considered a representative sample. Median price last month was $65,000 and August of last year was $289,500. There are 77 homes actively for sale- the balance is out of whack, with only 7 homes under contract at a median price of $247,500.
So sales are way down and pending sales are low. Here's … (0 comments)

peekskill: Peekskill Real Estate Market July 2010
- 08/22/10 01:14 PM
Peekskill is one of the older River towns in Westchester County. I have blogged about Peekskill before, and I have done quite a bit of business there. It is by far the northernmost city in Westchester county, and in addition to being affordable, the quality of life there seems to improve by the week. This is the market data for July of 2010 for single family homes in Peekskill, and all information is sourced from the Westchester-Putnam MLS.
Prices are way down. Median price last month was $305,000 and July of last year was $310,000, but this July it was $184,500. There … (0 comments)

- 07/10/10 12:43 PM
This is the market activity for Peekskill in June of 2010. All information is sourced from the Westchester-Putnam MLS. I have blogged about Peekskill extensively before.
Unlike the May of 2009 and 2010 comparison, prices and transaction totals are up, from a median price in June of 2009 of $237,500 to a more robust $304,750 in June 2010. There were 8 transaction in June this year, up from only 6 last June, and 9 homes are currently under contract. 64 homes are actively for sale.
64 active listings is about 8-10 months worth of inventory, not an … (2 comments)

peekskill: One Peekskill Short Sale Approved, Another New One Listed
- 02/02/10 06:35 AM
We just got word that one of our short sale transactions in Peekskill, NY was approved. This comes just one day after we listed another one for sale across town!
On the approved sale, we had multiple offers. The one sent to the bank was less than 2% short of a full price bid, and it should close in the next 2 weeks. The property was put under contract on December 18, 2009, so the approval only took about 45 days. In the short sale world, that is lightning speed. I hope this is a sign of things to come in … (5 comments)

peekskill: Peekskill, NY Real Estate Market
- 01/01/10 01:05 PM
What do George Pataki and Mel Gibson have in common? Peekskill, NY. Gibson was born here, and Pataki was once the mayor.
I have blogged about Peekskill's market activity previously. We are talking about a historic river town with a lot of charm for those who dig pre war architecture. The place is teeming with activity and forward movement. Many of the old buildings have been restored, and the once dreary downtown is an eclectic mix of Bohemia and commerce. One thing that struck me when I was taking photos the other day was how many people and cars got in … (2 comments)
