Closed Transactions: Jan 22-31, 2010

This was an interesting week. The number of sales this week matched last year's week, which is surprising. But even more surprising is that the selling time was significantly lower in Silverdale and Poulsbo--these buyers made choices more quickly. Selling prices were significantly higher this year in Silverdale, Poulsbo, and Bainbridge Island. And selling prices were very close to list price in Silverdale, Poulsbo and Kingston, suggesting that sellers are realizing something about the market.

Brenda Prowse: Real Estate Agent in Poulsbo, WA

These statistics are for Poulsbo, including the downtown core, from the head of Liberty Bay southeast to Ne-Si-Ka Bay, and parts north to Sawdust Hill Rd. Other parts of Poulsbo and its suburbs should have similar trends. The December median sales price for Poulsbo was $254,250, down about 13% from a year ago. The more stable three month moving average closed sale price was $282,709, about 5% lower than in December 2008. The Kitsap County 3 month moving average median price is just about the same as it was a year ago. The 3 month moving average number of closed sales in Poulsbo rose 50% from a year ago. The 3 month moving average of closed sales is up 39% Countywide from a year ago. December pending sales were up 50% in Poulsbo. Recall this number includes pending short sales and new construction that may not close soon. The Poulsbo listing inventory (98) is 36% lower than a year ago. The inventory turnover (total homes on the market divided by number sold last month) is 5.9 months, somewhat worse than the 4.2 months reported last month - but still very good. Poulsbo is probably still a buyers market because of the shadow inventory of homes pulled off the market in the past year without selling, but looks like it has improved recently.

My family celebrated my birthday recently, and so my oldest son, Ben Jacobson, made this fondant cake to commemorate the event. Knowing my love for sushi, he created an assortment of nigri and maki rolls using Swedish Fish, Fruit Roll-ups, Rice Crispies & Marshmallows, and donuts. There's a bowl of sticky rice (Rice Krispies & Marshmallows) and Soy Sauce (Chocolate Syrup), and some Wasabi & Ginger (frosting).
