It is really hard to believe that we are approaching the end of 2013, but my calendar says that we truly are.  So it seems like a good time to go ahead and look at what the sales at Jubilee have been like for the year thus far.   I know from showing homes in Jubilee that the sales have been pretty brisk - often at least one home that a buyer thought they might like to see has already gone pending by the time we are heading out to look at homes.  And in fact, that impression is borne out by the statistics.  So far, since the first of the year, our NWMLS shows 39 homes in Jubilee have sold at prices ranging all the way from $206,500 to $449,900.  This includes both new construction homes and resale ones.  The median sales price for this group of sales is $284,530.  This reflects that many... 11/27/2013

  The real estate market at Jubilee has been pretty brisk this year, with houses selling fairly quickly and many buyers waiting eagerly for new listings to appear on the market. Currently I found 10 homes listed for sale in our NWMLS, and they include 4 brand new homes and 6 resales.  Pricing on listed homes starts at $197,900 currently for a resale home that has approximately 1277 square feet and 2 bedrooms, 1.75 baths.  The high end for list price is $ 435,000 for a large home - 1928 square feet. The median asking price currently is $383,700 which reflects the number of larger homes on the market, commanding a much higher price.  Since the majority of the smaller homes have two bedrooms, the larger homes do appeal to those buyers who would really prefer to have a den in addition to th... 11/30/2013

Here are my top ten reasons why you might LOVE living at Jubilee: 10. There are a variety of floor plans and sizes of homes, all with open living spaces and one level convenience. 9.

A multitude of outdoor activities available - enjoy a brisk or leisurely walk, hop on your bicycle, play a few g... 10/25/2013
