The first 2 months of the year were highlighted by torrential rain which help fill our tanks and made everyone head for the mountains, but it didn't seem to dampen the real estate activity in Marin. The first two months of the year are typically fairly slow and yet buyers have started to take their hands out of their pockets and moving on buying a home in the most desirable county in the Bay Area. Yes, prices are down by 20% in some areas and yet so are interest rates - as low as they've been in many years.

We have 29% of our 853 homes in escrow.…

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010 at 8:21am. 123 Views, 0 Comments.
We are optimistic about the coming year in Marin real estate. From a seller's standpoint the next few months are going to be very active. Because inventory is down and we expect a 35% jump in the spring, acting sooner rather than later would be advisable and the three factors that will affect you the most as a seller are timing, pricing and marketing. Keep in mind that the more choices a buyer has, the less your home will be worth and if you have something good to offer, make sure the world knows about it.
From a buyer's standpoint, 2010 is the year to buy a home for the reasons outlined below. U.S. News and World Report just came out with an article on why they think that this the year to buy but be careful about procrastinating, because that will hurt…
