Jay Ferguson – Real Estate Market Update June 20
It has been WET – certainly as wet as I can remember for quite some time. This is quite the opposite of the very dry and drought-like conditions from last year. Showing homes has been a soggy adventure, but we are getting by. We may have to show more homes by boat if this keeps up 🙂 Notable activity over the last week:
Sundown Chase townhouse in McHenry sold for $540k
Home on 16 acres sold for $575k in Bittinger
Lakefront townhome at Creekside sold for $1.2 million
Contemporary home on Fairgate Rd sold for $1.2 million
Lake access home in Stilwater closed for $812,500
Most other sales last week were under $500k, which is certainly a sweet spot in the county right now
Lastly, price reductions in Sky Valley, a new lakefront condo at Will o the Wisp, and a 2nd home for sale UNDER $700k aroundthe Lodestone golf course
