November sales and Phone calls pick up!
November 11th, 2007 by dirkknudsen
Well it has been a pretty good Month in November and Re\Max Metro has seen an increase in sales activity. Lots of people calling and asking for showings or maps or more info. The market went very sluggish here in August of 2007 but this up-tick is a welcome sign that people are still out there thinking about making a home purchase!
On Sunday I held two opens from 12-6 and we has several visitors as well as I had three buyers call to check on other homes for sale. I even had a call on land for sale. We have surmised all along that the buyers are still there but based on the Media reports for the nation and the housing economy they are just staying on the sidelines.
In Portland I bet we see some good buys and savvy buyers taking advantage of the slowdown between now and years end …which appears to be continuing into next year as well. Once we see an upturn than things can really change. Anyway this upturn is unusual for November and is a welcome sign of hopefully things to come.  If there is anything you require assistance with here in Oregon regarding buysing or selling a home do not hesitate to pick up the phone. Dirk Knudsen can be reached at 503-799-8383.
