Bain Real Estate Sharon Village 2018 Market Report.

Dear Neighbor,

PLEASE CLICK  HERE TO SEE THE MAP

The strengthening of real estate market has been increasing for two years as born out in the diminishing inventory of homes for sale.  2015 there were 70 houses available for sale in Sharon. 2016 averaged 47 residential homes, 2017 averaged 51 residential homes and presently we have the same amount, 51 homes for sale. 

Equally strong are sales with 45 homes selling in the last 12 months just slightly below the 51 sales the year prior.  The increased demand and a sell-off of an over supplied market of 75 listings a few years back is promising. 

Even with fewer houses available there are still a number of distr...

Dear Neighbor.

Too much snow and especially too much of it in the spring!  And by the time you read this it will be in the 70's!!   But this crazy weather hasn't slowed down the real estate buzz in Cornwall Bridge. There have been lots of showings and sales in your neighborhood. We do not yet equal last year's 12 sales, but we have 7 homes sold, 2 more under contract plus new listings in the area.

We ended last year's letter describing the distinctive dual geodesic dome house at 197 Kent Road listed by Marilyn DeVos of our Kent office at $230,000. It was reduced to $199,000 and sold by David Bain at $175,000....

Bain Real Estate Westwoods 2018 January Market Report.

Dear Neighbor,

PLEASE CLICK HERE TO SEE THE MAP.

Year over year sales comparison in Sharon show a strong number of sales (54) in 2017 continued from the strong 57 residential sales in 2016. This demonstrates the increased demand and a sell-off of an over supplied market of 75 listings a few years ago.  Today there is a lessened supply of residential homes for sale (51) which will likely promote stronger values.

In fact we are seeing a slight squeeze on the number of listings available in Sharon and the County resulting in only 2 homes in contract to close. Are seller's values trending higher or is this merely the rhythm of the winter market doldrums? 

Even with fewer houses availab...
