lake winnipesaukee: Lake Winnipesaukee and Winnisquam Waterfront Sales Report - 1st Half 2010 - 07/23/10 05:47 AM

June was a pretty good month for Winnipesauke waterfront sales with a total of eight happy new homeowners finding a home to dock their boats on the shores of the big lake. This doesn’t quite measure up to the eleven sales last June, but the average sales price came in higher at $1.38 million compared to an average of $771,773 last June. There were five sales over $1 million last month compared to three last June.
The least expensive home that sold on the lake was at 56 Braun Bay Road in Moultonborough. Originally listed at $1.2 million, it was … (0 comments)

lake winnipesaukee: Stronger Sales Headed Into Spring... - 04/17/10 08:10 AM
It is great to finally start reporting increases in the number of residential homes sold in the Lakes Region. Scary, isn’t it? It is hard to get used to and I hope I am not jinxing anything by speaking positively, but things do seem to be improving a little as we head into spring and summer selling seasons. In March 2010 there were 59 homes that changed hands. That is a 31% increase over the 44 posted for March 2009! The average price for the homes sold in March 2010 came in at $272,539 compared to $218,530 last March. There was … (1 comments)

lake winnipesaukee: Global Warming Debunked - Lakes Region 1st Quarter Waterfront Report - 04/17/10 08:04 AM

 "Ice-Out" on Lake Winnipesaukee was officially declared on Wednesday, March 24, 2010 at 2:00 pm and was the earliest ice out ever recorded. While the global warming advocates will undoubtedly point to rising temperatures caused by increased concentrations of greenhouse gases, I know better. The following statistics will prove beyond a shadow of doubt that the early ice out was caused by an unseasonably hot month of waterfront sales! Well, at least compared to last March when there was only one sale on the Big Lake.
We had eight sales on Winnipesaukee with an average sales price of $1,020,675 last … (1 comments)

lake winnipesaukee: Lake Winnipesaukee and Winnisquam Waterfront Market Report Feb 2010 - 03/26/10 11:43 AM
Sales of waterfront homes in the Lakes Region of NH are typically a little slower in the month of February which is no different than any other segment of our real estate market. But we did have three pretty good sales on Lake Winnipesaukee, but none on Winnisquam, Newfound, Waukewan, Squam, or Kanasatka!
Click here for more details on these three sales: Waterfront sales Feb 2010
The largest sale was for $1.74 million in Gilford at 122 Varney Point. This was a very nice 3,500 square foot Adironack style home built in 2008. It has five bedrooms, 4 baths, cathedral … (0 comments)

lake winnipesaukee: Lake Winnipesaukee and Lake Winnisquam Waterfront Market Report For January 2009 - 02/18/10 04:48 AM




It is to be expected that showings and sales on waterfront properties in the Lakes Region of NH would be slower in the winter months than in the summer. We always see tire kickers, dreamers, and wanna-be’s in the summer months but we also get most of the buyers in the warmer months. But, the buyers that are out scouting and viewing homes during the winter are probably a little more serious. They are the ones that would like to buy now and be into their waterfront retreat by ice out so they can be there to … (0 comments)

lake winnipesaukee: Lake Winnipesaukee & Winnisquam Year End Waterfront Report -2009 - 01/27/10 07:51 AM
My favorite Lakes Region Real Estate Market Report of the whole year is definitely the year end waterfront report. It is exciting to see what homes sold, where they were located, and how much they went for. I focus only on the sales on Winnipesaukee and Winnisquam because they have the bulk of the sales and therefore they are a pretty good barometer as to how well the market is doing. Waterfront sales are a big part of the local real estate market as well as being important to our local economy is so many ways. So how did 2009 stack … (1 comments)

lake winnipesaukee: Largest Winnipesaukee Waterfront Sale in History - 12/23/09 03:05 AM
The Largest Winnipesaukee Waterfront Sale in History... The month of November hasn't been particularly robust for the housing market in the Lakes Region over the past few years. Let's face it, the weather turns cold, it is dreary, the tourists are gone, and people start to think a lot more about the holidays than houses. November is certainly not the "prime time" for selling a home. But the buyers that are out looking are definitely serious.
We had a total of 72 residential home transactions last month which I think is fantastic! Last November only 38 homes sold and in November … (0 comments)

All Hallows' Eve in the Lakes Region Home Market
Click on the pictures for some true terror...
This time of year you tend to see a lot of ghosts, goblins, ghouls, and witches on the streets of the Lakes Region of NH. There are also a lot of haunted houses and scary mansions with dark and dusty dungeons full of cobwebs, musty smells, and sinister shadows. It kind of reminds me of Halloween, but I am talking about real estate and the buyers, sellers, and agents involved in this frightening business.
We find buyers coming to the Halloween home … (0 comments)

Winnipesaukee and Winnisquam 3rd Quarter Waterfront Sales Report --Lakes Region of NH
It is great to report that the waterfront sales on Lake Winnipesaukee and Lake Winnisquam seem to have held their own over the summer season despite a downturned economy and general reluctance on the part of everyone to buy just about anything. Astute buyers still recognize that waterfront properties are a great place to invest their money. Unlike the stock market and other investment opportunities, buying a waterfront is a tangible, secure investment right now and is something that can really be enjoyed.
In the 3rd quarter of 2009 … (0 comments)
