Welcome to a Bellingham Open House

The following is a list of Open Houses that are occurring throughout Bellingham & Whatcom County. 

It wasn’t so many years ago that the only resource for  Home Buyers looking for Open Houses was the Bellingham Herald.  Today, there are a variety of sources for Open Houses that you can access on-line. 

The following list provides you with the best Open House sources in Whatcom County.

 

If you aren’t able to attend an Open House that you see here but would like to arrange for a private viewing contact us on-line or call us at 360-319-3276.  If you see a home, any home, that you’d like to visit but don’t see an Open House scheduled e-mail us for our On-Line Open House Presentation.  This Open House presentation will include

  • Multiple photos of the home and property
  • Virtual tours
  • Assessor’s information
  • Historical data from the North West Multiple Listing Service
  • Comparable Sales
  • Sellers Disclosure Statements
  • An on-line analysis of value for the home you are interested in

All from the luxury of your arm chair.  Attending an Open House has never been this easy.

  But on to our Open House this Sunday.

 Rich Johnson would like to invite you to attend the Open House at 925 15th St on Bellingham’s prestigious South Hill Neighborhood.

925 15th St is a perfect South Hill location.  The home sits on a large sunny with an unblockable view. The home is a solid, comfortable house with the hard updating already done. This is a clean, cozy home has had updates to windows, roof, electrical system, heating system – the pink paint & glue down carpet are gone – the canvas is ready for you. A wonderful deck takes advantage of the bay view and the gardens, with fruit trees, berries & raised beds. Extensive alley parking is a plus for this neighborhood, and you can walk to Fairhaven.  It’s all here!

 

Welcome to 925 15th St Open House

You can view this home Sunday May 2nd from 12 to 2:00

 If you stop by the Open House, we will have hand out information for this home of course but about the market in general.  The question on everyone’s mind seems to be “what’s happening in the market”.  We don’t have a crystal ball that is totally clear however we do have the tools that will help to somewhat clear the water.  We are happy to share them with you.  Hope to see you at this Sunday’s Open House. 

 The map below will help you in locating the property.

South Hill Neighborhood Real Estate Market

April 23rd, 2010 by Rich | Posted in Bellingham, NEIGHBORHOODS, Random, South Hill | 2 Comments »

Bellingham Real Estate Market – How is IT?

How is the real estate market?  This is a question that is always raised and it seemed to be top of mind for everyone coming through my Open House recently at 925 15th St on South Hill.  At the Open House, when people would ask “How is the Market”, what they were really asking was 1) how is the Bellingham real estate market in general 2) How is the market on South Hill 3) How is the market for their home.  Generally speaking, most Buyers today have a home to sell if they are considering a move and so for many the sales price of the home they want to buy is as important to them as that of which they are hopeing to sell.

So with that said, How is the South Hill Neighborhood Market?

The graphs above represent presentations from 3 separate services all of which draw their data from the Northwest Multiple Listing Service.  There may be slight differences in the numbers because of the frequencies in which they collect their data.  Currently in South Hill there are 19 active listings.  There are currently 8 homes that are pending and 12 that have sold over the last 6 months.  Interestingly enough of those that are active, 5 are vacant homes & 8 are rented.  Of those that are pending,  1 is vacant and 7 are occupied by the owners.  Of those that have sold however 4 were vacant, 8 occupied by the owner and none were vacant.  Of the homes that sold, 4 sold within 32 days of the list date.  Of those that are pending, 1 sold the day it was listed and 1 sold within 9 days of the list date.  So those are the specifics.  The Macro picture of the South Hill Neighborhood is this, there are 18 active listings and 8 that are pending or a listing to pending ratio of 44%.   

To understand what this ration means & to see what the listing to pending ratios are throughout the County, access the Bellingham Real Estate Market News section of our web site.

It is obvious that buyers have many choices in the current market, since there is currently a 14 month supply of inventory.  The South Hill neighborhood is caught in the soft sales of the upper end of the market.  Owners who want to sell need to price aggressively relative to their specific location and the condition of their home.   The good news is that inventory is down a bit from the peak in 2008.

This market opens opportunities for buyers who might have been just a bit underqualified for a home on South Hill in the past.  A key factor lurking out there, however, is interest rates, which may well rise if the recession is indeed bottoming.  This could effectively wipe out the lower prices for a current buyer.

If you would like more specific information on homes in the South Hill neighborhood, don’t hesitate to contact us.  If you would like to know how your home anywhere in Whatcom County fits into the market, request a free online estimate of value. 

If your neighborhood association would like a presentation on real estate activity in the neighborhood, we would be happy to make arrangements to meet with you.
