Call me today and let's talk about why Cherry Creek is right for you. More photos of this one to come soon!

The 10N section of Cherry Creek (north of William Cannon) continues to outshine just about every other neighborhood in Austin when it comes to the ease of selling a home!

Here's a quick run-down of the current activity:

There are only THREE actively marketed homes, as of 4/27/2011

There are currently THREE pending transactions. If an average transaction takes around 30 days to close, that means we have just about one month's worth of inventory currently on the market. VERY HEALTHY!

The list prices of PENDING homes currently range from $154,000 to $224,900.

Active listings range from $159,900 to $219,000.

There have been FOUR closed sales in March and so far in April. Sold prices ranged from $139,00 to $205,000.

One home sold in only 20 days!

Are you looking to buy or sell a home in the South Austin neighborhood of Cherry Creek or in 78745 in general? Let's talk about the numbers!

I bought into the Whispering Oaks neighborhood in South Austin (just south of William Cannon between West Gate Blvd and Manchaca Rd, 78745 zip code) in the summer of 2009 --- almost two years ago as I write this.  I couldn't be happier with the life here for a lot of reasons. I'm so grateful for my surroundings and I want to share with you a few of the reasons why I love living here.

• The people!  Our neighborhood association is active and our residents look out for one another.  Like every community, we're not immune to attempted break-ins.  But unlike other communities, we have a lot of vigilant residents who keep alert for possible crime.  A few months back, a woman walking her dogs foiled a burglary attempt a few streets down from my house.  Now that's being a good neighbor!
• The location!  Close to downtown via Manchaca Rd and 1st St, it doesn't take long to get to the cool shopping and chic hangouts of downtown and 78704.  No car, no problem:  there's Cap Metro line that picks up right at the intersection of Wm Cannon and Manchaca, and it just so happens that it's one of the few overnight routes so getting to and from downtown safely is no problem.
• Walkability! From my home I can walk to a natural grocery store, all types of doctors offices, Chinese/Vietnamese/Mexican restaurants, Starbucks, a Farmers Market, CVS pharmacy and three major banks --- all within five minutes.
• Wide streets and mature trees! Established neigbhorhoods have it all over the new subdivisions when it comes to beautiful, towering oak trees.  And the developers of Whispering Oaks were much kinder to our subdivision as well when it comes to the wide streets that make for lots of extra parking.

Total all of these major advantages up and you'd probably expect a much higher sales price than the average $150-$165K that homes in Whispering Oaks, Austin TX tend to sell for. 

Call me today and let's see if Whispering Oaks might be right for you!
