Eastman Real Estate Blog

This post comes a little late but it’s some that should be mentioned.

Country Houses RE earned the Bronze level for fund-raising for this years relay, held at Kearsarge Regional High School. The company totaled over $3000 in donations and I think that’s awesome. About 25-30 members of the company spent Friday evening walking and talking. Only about 10-12 tried to stay the night, then the winds, thunder and driving rains came and the event was cut short.

A special thanks go out to Janet, Susan and Sherry for all their hard work in getting everything organized. An honorable mention goes to John for his help with the tent.

The newest listing is a wonderful 3.34 acres parcel of land that has over 160′ of lake frontage.

This is one of the last, true, Eastman Lakefront building lots in the Eastman Community.

Today is a big day for the office located at 18 Pioneer Point, also known as the Visitor Center.

Interior and exterior improvements are coming including removing the circus wheel chandelier and the old, faded and falling apart aerial map of Eastman. A new slider, replacing of rotted boards, power washing and painting of both interior and exterior surfaces are on the docket. Refinishing the pine floors and removal of the pellet stove that sticks out into the main entry room are going to add so much to a greater presentation not only to our clients but to the community.

Over the course of the next two weeks all this will take place so please excuse our appearance while we spruce up.

Business will continue as normal with the exception of a few noises and a few extra people working around here. I can’t wait to see how it all comes together!

EASTMAN GOLF LINKS

Another stellar weekend is upon us. The lake is warming and golf and tennis seasons are going full ahead. If your looking for other THINGS TO DO IN EASTMAN than you have several options.

Jason Cann and the boat and bike demo day are this weekend. Maybe just sitting on one of the 6 beaches is all your looking for?

There are some very positive numbers here if your a seller. The real estate market has improved dramatically since last year. Here are a few numbers for you to look at.

From January 1st, 2009 through May 31st 2009 there were nine homes and one condo sold. For the same time period this year twenty six homes have sold and 3 condos sold.

That’s nearly a 300% increase in sales! If we can keep this pace up, there will be 62 home sales this year. That’s not a bad year at all.

Condo sales are better than last year but still seem to be lagging the home market. If we figure our average sales for most years, totals of over 20 units a year, this year we are on pace to sell a total of 7. That’s not good, but condo selling season is just getting under way. I am confident that by years end, sales in condos will be respectable.
