listing agent: February 2016 Silicon Valley Real Estate Market Update - 02/10/16 10:01 AM
Quick Market Overview: As is usual for this time of year, the number of available homes for sale have increased. While not a huge jump, we do see a trend change nonetheless. Notwithstanding this, however, the real estate markets in both Santa Clara and San Mateo counties remain in record territory in terms of prices and well off their average inventory levels over the past 15+ years.

Demand continues to outstrip supply in Santa Clara County as 60% (versus 58% last month) of homes … (0 comments)

listing agent: January Silicon Valley Real Estate Update - 02/02/16 05:43 AM

Record median prices were seen again in December in the Silicon Valley real estate market, breaking last year's records. Demand continues to outstrip supply in Santa Clara County as 58% (versus 50% in December 2014) of homes that closed escrow sold for more than … (1 comments)

listing agent: October Silicon Valley Real Estate Market Trends - 10/18/13 07:06 AM
The Silicon Valley real estate market has taken its proverbial foot off the gas pedal. Still a robust market climate, especially for this time of year, the market has cooled a bit. An indication of this is that there are fewer offers per listing than earlier in the year. Now, some of this is normal seasonal variations but, I think, some has to do with that a fever-pitched market can’t last indefinitely. Buyers get burned too many times in multiple offer situations and pull out of contention for a while. Prices thus go into a “choppy” time not really going up nor down. … (0 comments)

listing agent: Agents - How NOT to sell your listings - 01/19/08 09:06 AM
It never ceases to amaze me when reviewing the Property History portion of listings how many potential missed opportunities there are to sell a home. As you know, the Property History section contains all listing information in chronological order by MLS number.  It includes, list price, date of sale, close of escrow date with final selling price and ALL price changes. It will also show realty firms, listing agents and relisting under a new MLS number. If you're thorough in your research, you will convey this to your sellers and a good buyers agent will be able to explain the reasons for all changes to a … (5 comments)
