An important thing to keep in mind when it comes to real estate is that each and every town is different. Depending on where you are in the country, one town can be thriving and the next town over can be in a slump. This can also be true for large cities-certain sections of a city can be desirable...others not so much. Please keep this in mind when you listen to the news. Reporters are often giving you statewide or national market data and your home town is not the "national market". With that said, let's see what's been going on in the Kittery/Eliot real estate market:
**12 homes sold in the Kittery/Eliot area in May
**Year-to-date, 53 homes have sold in Eliot and Kittery, ME, and
**25 Eliot/Kittery area homes went pending with active contracts in May.
If you or someone you know is looking to buy or sell, give me a call. I'd be happy to help them out.

It is now 2008 and buyers are realizing that it is now or never....prices have come down and interest rates are still doing well...Many buyers are hoping to come into the Maine market and get a lot for their money....but the truth is that many sellers have already marked prices as low as they possibly can....Sellers today are having to go to closing with some cash in order to clear title...
Buyers may want to understand the market that they are shopping in first of all.....for example Biddeford is a little different from Ogunquit....and the prices will dictate that....
It is nice to see buyers doing their homework over the internet before seeking to see a property, but keep in mind that many properties out there are in an up side down loan and sellers can decrease their prices just so far....
It is important for agents to educate their buyers, for example, a seller has a large mortgage on a property...it is important to know this before trying to just make a low ball offer....in todays market many sellers are either just breaking even or needing to come to the closing with cash.
