Summertime in LakeLand Village.... whether you live here full time or part time there is something here for everyone! The market has started to heat up just as the weather has! Now is a perfect time to take advantage of the fantastic homes and fantastic prices in LakeLand Village.
Let's take a look at the LakeLand Village Real Estate Market numbers and see what has been going on in June....
There are currently 31 homes for sale in LakeLand Village. Inventory increased slightly from last month but that is expected this time of year.
Looking at the pending sales, there has been quite a bit of activity during the month of June with buyers making offers. They realize this market is a GREAT time to take the plunge into home ownership in LakeLand Village or "move up" in the market.
It is also a great chance to take advantage of the 1st time Home Buyers Tax Credit available as well as some awesome interest rates on home loans.
There are 7 homes in LakeLand Village in Allyn that have pending sales. Here is the breakdown on the pendings:
Overall Pending Sale Average Dollars per sq ft : $124.09 (keep in mind this number is slightly lower for the month of June due to a bank owned property pending at an incredible price and a few short sales as well. )If you were to remove these homes from th mix, the average dollar per sqare foot comes in at $136.20. Down from May's numbers.
Four (4) homes sold in the month of June in LakeLand Village, but we have seen sales taking longer than 30 days to close due to lender underwriting slow down and appraisal issues.The average $ per square foot for the four sold properties is $139.32.This number is a little askew because of a sold foreclosure (bank Owned property) at a very low price for LakeLand Village ($106.22/sq foot); Taking that one out of the sold mix brings the average $$'s per square foot to $150.36 - down from May's number.
Below is a sample of what's available for sale in LakeLand Village in certain price ranges:

Hood Canal & Puget Sound Waterfront Homes for Sale~Something for Everyone!
Are you dreaming or have you been dreaming about a waterfront home on Hood Canal or Puget Sound? Well ..... you might want to start taking a good look because there are some phenomenal opportunities 
and homes for sale along Hood Canal as well as in Grapeview and Allyn along the Puget Sound.
Lots of Choices, Lots of Style, Lots of Prices!!!
For the month end of June 2009 here is where things sit for waterfront properties along the Hood Canal & Puget Sound....
South Shore of Hood Canal currently has:
North Shore of Hood Canal currently has:
Southern Puget Sound in Grapeview and Allyn Waterfront homes:
Reviewing the numbers for my Hood Canal and Puget Sound Waterfront clients, it looks as though the Allyn and Grapeview area along the Puget Sound are giving the South Shore and North Shore of Hood Canal a run for their money. Allyn and Grapeview were one of our "best kept secrets" until the last two years where it is has gained notoriety for great waterfront homes for sale and recreational opportunities as well as fulltime living.
The North Shore is not as popular as the South Shore of Hood Canal but because of that it is also less "busy" along the roadways. A quiet leisurely drive will take you along the North Shore of the Belfair area of Hood Canal with many, many choices and prices of homes along with pristine beaches and vistas. A leisurely place with a leisurely pace...
The South Shore is where people who have heard of "Hood Canal" usually think of... Located along the southern shores of the "hook" of the canal, it is considered a
destination" for summertime fun.
Ready for your own summertime waterfront getaway? Lots of options from the Hood Canal to the southern Puget Sound...
Prices start as low as $249,000 on up to 1.4 million!! 65 homes for sale waiting for you to come by! So you can see there is a price and a home that will fit just about anyone's needs and wants...
If you would like more information on waterfront homes for sale along the South Shore and North Shore of Hood Canal or in the Allyn and Grapeview area along Case Inlet/Lower Puget Sound, give me a call.

It was definitely time for a brain break! Things have been busy in our local Belfair real estate market which means that I have been extremely busy. I sometimes forget to take care of myself during times like this....Then it hits me - I need a BRAIN BREAK! YEAH! Let's go!
This is how I take a Brain break when needed!
A ride on my motorcycle whether it be for an hour or days.... I don't need long to feel re-energized and ready to go! Nothing clears the mind better!
My husband and I left Allyn,WA around 9 in the morning and rode up to Kingston to catch the Ferry to Edmonds. Love riding on the ferry - the scenery is spectacular and what a great way to get from point A to B without the hassle of traffic!
From Edmonds we found our way to Highway 2. Great road for riding. Very little to no traffic this time of year. Great views and great little towns along the way! The roads are wide and in good condition with a rider's favorite thing - sweeping corners mixed in. Just got to keep eyes peeled for the wildlife! Deer, elk and the further east you go Big Horn Sheep as well are everywhere....
Once in Wenatchee we cut up Route 97 going North and stopped for the night in Winthrop. We chose a cabin on the edge of town -The Winthrop Mountain View Chalets.
Good views, clean and cute cabin - good company and great day of riding.
Bright and early (ok not so early) the next morning, we saddled up and headed west on Route 20 - the very Northern Cascade Loop. And you could tell it was Northern and Higher!
(Time to put on the warm gloves too!)
We dropped down from here into Burlington, had to get on I-5 for a few (not my favorite part) to get back to the ferry in Edmonds and finish off our Brain Break trip through Kingston on down to home in LakeLand Village.
Good views, good company, good roads, good food and wine and best of all a GREAT ride!
LOVE OUR BRAIN BREAK RIDES!!!!

Let's check out the facts of what's going on.....
There are currently 29 homes for sale in LakeLand Village (this is a much better picture than what last year painted for us). This is a "positive" movement for sellers and buyers beware, as this could be a turning point as far as prices go in LakeLand Village and LakeLand's homes for sale inventory!
Looking at the pending sales, there has been quite a bit of activity during the month of May with buyers making offers. They realize this market is a GREAT time to take the plunge into home ownership in LakeLand Village or "move up" in the market.

There are 8 (up from 4 last month) homes in LakeLand Village in Allyn that have pending sales. Here is the breakdown on the pendings:
The average selling price and dollars per square foot are lower than normal due to a few of the homes being in a short sale status (the sellers owes more on the home than it is being sold for) or a bank owned home (foreclosed or repo).
Overall Pending Sale Average Dollars per sq ft : $129.82 (keep in mind this number is low due to a bank owned property pending and the 3 short sales; The other pendings average per square foot is $142.68. A considerable increase as well as a considerable increase in buyers making offers.
Only one home closed (sold) in the month of May in LakeLand Village but we have seen sales taking longer than 30 days to close due to lender underwriting slow down, so June should show a very strong month for closed/sold properties. The average $ per square foot for the one home was $167.54.
The active homes for sale inventory in LakeLand Village is at a median price range of $367,475. This is higher due to the LOWER priced homes being sold or in pending status.The average dollar per square foot for active homes for sale in LakeLand Village is $152.29.
