Brier is so lucky to have such a wonderful library - it may be little, but this smaller library packs a punch and offers all the same wonderful perks of other Sno-Isle Regional libraries. Check out DVDs, CDs, books, etc., and the children's reading section is adorable.

I love the convenient online ordering system, too - there is no need to have a huge library if you can order anything in the entire system to be picked up at your local library. Go through their catalog and order as much as you want - they call to tell you that the items are at the building for pick up and will hold them for a few days if it isn't convenient to pick them all up right away. There is also a really easy slot for dropping the items back off once you are finished. If you forget - they will call you, but won't charge you unless you loose something.

Brier Residents already have a lot of great features in their city, but the Brier WA library is a definite asset!

Snohomish county has seen an increase in buyers out there looking for property in the Seattle suburbs. The market is a bit trickier, but pricing your home correctly and hiring a full service REALTOR can help to navigate the market so far for 2008. Let's look at numbers for the Brier WA 2008 Feb market so far -compiled by Cooper Jacobs Real Estate Services from information in the NWMLS.

Brier WA has a slight increase so far over January 2008 numbers for February 2008 inventory....

There are 22 Active listings and two of these are Subject to Inspection (STI). There have been 10 new Brier listings since the beginning of 2008 and 3 closed sales so far for the year.

Here are some of the Active stats:

These Brier Active listings range from 3-5 bedroom (average of 4 bedrooms), 1-3.5 Baths (average of 2.45 baths), 1225-3774 square feet (average of 2461 sq feet). These homes are priced between $321,500 and $889,000 listing price. They range in days on market (DOM) from 1-186 days with an average of 79 days on market. I am seeing that while the market time is taking a bit longer in most cases, the homes that are priced properly and Staged are faring better.

Three solds in 2008 so far -

SP/LP ranges from 98.55% to 100% so far with $1,310,950 total sales volume for 2008.
