door county listings: It's still a Seller's Market in Door County, Wisconsin
- 11/03/21 01:16 PM
It's still a Seller's Market in Door County, Wisconsin as I write this post. As we end the "typical" tourism season of late April through the first weekend in November and enter the upcoming, festive winter and holiday season, we wonder if it will mirror that past two years, where real estate activity remained brisk throughout the holidays and even throughout winter in most of the Door County market....before it rushed back to abnormal levels in spring. Will this year be similar? Homes are still getting multiple Offers here, and cash is still king! We still have some exceptional inventory, from our … (2 comments)

It happens to the best of us, and to some great homes.....timing is off, or price, or maybe just a global pandemic. But like bread and jokes, listings CAN get stale. This is a great article showing 13 ways to revive a "stale" listing and is as valuable for the Seller as it is for their agent.

door county listings: How to Buy a Home in Door County, Wisconsin---Or Anywhere, USA
- 12/29/17 12:08 PM
This may sound like a rather simple headline---but in the past month, I've had two couples approach me that haven't purchased a home since they bought their primary residences several DECADES ago. I also had a lovely couple SELLING their first home (and they were both in their 80s, it was their first sales experience) last summer (and we sold it quickly). Now these new Buyer families (that haven't purchased in decades) want to purchase second home properties in Door County. This post is about how to buy a home in Door County, Wisconsin. Our steps here will be different from … (0 comments)
We recently received approved numbers for home, condominium and vacant land sales for northern Door County for the third quarter of 2017, and that data was enlightening as we move end the fourth quarter and move into 2018.
Traditionally, October is one of our busiests months, and that falls into the 4th quarter, so expect strong 4th quarter statistics for 2017, also.
This is the data as provided and approved by the Door County Board of Realtors for northern Door County (north of Sturgeon Bay). The data shown is the total number of MLS … (0 comments)

DOOR COUNTY WATERFRONT HOME FOR SALE
One of my biggest fears is the Seller that comes with unrealistic expectations based on market conditions from “before” or the “expert knowledge” they have gleaned from other sources, including the dreaded Zestimate (which can be so horrifically inaccurate). That’s the … (2 comments)
How do you price your Door County property to sell? One of my team members, and I found ourselves in an unfortunate position last week, and it's something we all see in the real estate market. We all have the occasional "ugly" home in our inventory--something that is very dated or simply neglected---and if it is priced correctly, it does sell (and may sell very quickly at the right price). Recently I received a call from an elderly gentleman who had decided, with his wife, that it has become time to sell … (0 comments)

Greetings from Door County, where the real estate market has turned quite busy with the snow melt-off. Is the ice melting on the Bay? Significant progress has been made. That being said, temperatures next week are predicted to go below the freezing point again at night, with a chance of snow. This Week in Door County Real Estate:

Our Door County market has been all over the board lately. The majority of sales have been well under $300,000 so far this year, although we've had some nice transactions that remind us of the time-held advice: "What's my home worth"? Answer: What someone is willing to pay for it. I had a discussion with a local appraiser the other day who was bemoaning the lack of comparable sales from last spring (that will strengthen as we go into the 3rd quarter of 2013). An agent/broker reminder, though, … (0 comments)
door county listings: SOLD in Door County, Wisconsin--2012 Door County Real Estate Review
- 01/20/13 05:12 AM
SOLD in Door County, Wisconsin--2012 Door County Real Estate Review. 2012 marked what many will feel is a new beginning in Door County real estate sales. We watched our market absolutely topple in 2008/2009 and, other than some unrelated activity, 2012 really marked what was the beginning of what we hope is a sustained real estate market recovery in Door County. FACT: Total sales as recorded via the Door County Multiple Listing Service topped $300,000,000.00 for recorded transactions sides for the first time since 2007. Our Door County Properties via MLS data went from a peak high of approximately $477,000,000 in 2005 to … (0 comments)
door county listings: Breaking Up Is Hard to Do
- 01/01/13 01:28 AM
Well, it's a new year, and a fresh beginning for many of us...including a few of my clients who think the grass may be greener elsewhere. Breaking up is hard to do. However, when clients won't listen to suggestions about pricing to stay competitive in a changing market, when five people in a trust think that a "majority vote" should be a sales price, when I can't get the money back on a vacant land investment purchased in peak market---I understand the frustration. In our market, a listing is a long-term relationship, with ups and downs. Properties can and have been … (6 comments)

door county listings: Selling? Frequently Asked Questions on How I will Market Your Home.
- 05/29/12 02:17 AM
Selling? Here are the most frequently asked questions I will get regarding the marketing of your home. 1. How do I feel about print media? Print Media: I will do this occasionally, in high season, but I am very careful to tally the number of calls I actually get off of print media marketing. In my opinion, my dollars are far better spent on online marketing. 2. Do I have a website? Several, actually---all pointed toward bringing buyers to my listings with Search Engine Optimization. 3. Does your listing need a sign? ABSOLUTELY. Even in this day of electronic media, an actual … (0 comments)
