November Market Update

Central Coast. I’m back with a quick market and community update. But before we talk numbers, I want to get a little personal. Just for a moment, I want to encourage all of you to identify what it is in your life that you need to do before the end of the year to finish strong and on a positive note, I know for many of us it’s been a roller coaster of a year and we can’t change what we did, what we didn’t do, what happened to us.

 

But what we can control is how we finish the year. So starting today, think about something in your life that you know you need to do that you probably been avoiding for a very long time and come up with a plan to attack starting now. If you need help coming up with something or coming up with a plan, let me know. But tackle those things you’ve been avoiding because usually those are the things that have the most profound impact on our lives once we finally do them. 

 

Okay, let’s get to real estate. Over the last 30 days, we saw a slight dip but overall steady pace of home sales. We also saw a slight drop in the average days on market. A great time for buyers wanting to settle in for the New Years and sellers prices remain strong. Your dream of selling for top dollar is still a reality here on the central coast. 

 

Also a friendly reminder this month we are supporting our community with a food drive partnered with the SLO food bank. We are accepting donations of nonperishable food items. No family, no person. Should have to worry where their next meal is coming from. We are making it pretty easy. We will pick up donations directly from you. Every can, every box makes a difference. 

 

Until next time, keep enjoying the beauty of the Central Coast and let’s spread the kindness that makes our community the best place to live. Call or message us to get involved or to talk real estate. You are always welcome.
