Weekly News from the Club – August 22, 2011

The end of a super fantastic week and the start of another!!  The Camano Island Real Estate market has been so “Hot” along with our gorgeous weather that I didn’t even have time for an update last week!!  Perhaps it is the weather and perhaps it is the volatile  stock market but desire has been high and interest rates continue to be low; low 4%’s and under 3% for some types of financing!  Real Estate prices are continuing to stay low and be reduced and a lot of savvy buyers appear to be walking through the doors and calling their agents to purchase now.  Some buyers have been relocating for work. Some are smart first time home buyers or those move up buyers that have equity.  There are also a lot of investors; tired of the fluctuating stock market and looking for that long term investment proven to eventually pay off.  Whatever the reason, we are grateful and excited.  With 52 current Pending Sales on Camano Island alone we are seeing an amazing upward trend. All of our Windermere agents have been gearing up with current information, trends, competition and comparable sold statistics to help their clients and everyone make informed and wise choices. We have a wide variety of inventory and there is something for everyone!  We are also continuing our goal of improving the Windermere Club office with better access, more information and our welcoming “Open House” type of atmosphere so our entire community can feel comfortable coming in whether they are buying, selling or simply needing advise. The prior week’s Club Friday Community Open House was a huge success sponsored by WAVE Broadband and Randy’s famous pulled pork BBQ, ribs, coleslaw and the works!  Wow, follow up that with last week’s Club sponsored by Network Mortgage and Premier Designs Jewelry and near 80 degree weather.  Every indication and premonition is that the busy, hot trend will continue in the weather and Real Estate!  Come on down on Fridays or any day because we are “Cookin’ at the Club”!!!
