Activity in the office

Activity in the office has been extremely good this week; partly due to a new listing we received recently that has been shown numerous times with more showing appointments over the next few days. Also, this week one of our listings received 3 offers, with one being accepted. We are in the process of helping first time homebuyers find a home that fits their needs so that they may take advantage of the tax credit.

Our snowbirds (Ellen and Cindy) have returned from the south, with their return, brings more energy to the office.

Market is on the upswing

Our office has several new listings this week, which indicates that the market is on the upswing. Also, buyers are beginning to take advantage of the low interest rate and the availability of property.

Two members from the Vermont Real Estate Commission spoke at the monthly Central Vermont Board of Realtors meeting this week. Several agents attended and were updated on the rules and regulations.

Educating our staff

The real estate marketplace is showing signs of potential upswing. Home affordability is the best in decades; mortgage rates the lowest in modern times. Sellers and buyers are starting to get it. In order to take advantage of this information we have invited appraisal and bankers in to update us on the latest information in the market.
