                        This past month reflects tremendous improvement in the sale of homes in CHAGRIN FALLS.  The same is likely to be true for Solon, Twinsburg, Aurora, and Russell.  If you need to know this information for your specific area,  for developments like Laurel Springs, Barrington, and Canyon Lakes, give us a call.  The above numbers may be eye openers for many of you.  If you are currently selling your home, you may not be aware of these recent changes.  Most importantly, ALL BUYERS AND SELLERS should be aware of them for your street, neighborhood, and community.  The numbers can change dramatically by location, even within your local community.

If you are looking to purchase a home in the next few months, please give us a call.  We are in our show all properties listed by any real estate broker and most for sale by owner homes.  Most importantly, our purchase analysis for buyers includes the street, neighborhood, and the local community facts.

If your interest is in homes priced above $500,000, the above chart indicates an inventory of 31 months, a dramatic improvement of 48 months  just 30 days ago.  If you are ready to negotiate, there are still excellent values available in every price range.   

 For families and individuals involved in a relocation transfer, you're timing is excellant.  The Greater Cleveland Community has so much to offer and is one of the most affordable major metropolitan areas in the country.
