Here is a great chart to compare the sold properties by Month over the last year.  Gives us a good look at the year that was 2011.  The summer selling market did take place along with a couple of months that had usual spikes.   I do believe that if you are a seller and would like to sell you must list early in the year to garner the best possible price.   The median sales price has come back up after that huge dip in November.

New Homes on the Market Bremerton Real Estate Feb 2012

Not a bad time to purchase a home in Bremerton, Washington. Prices are down, interest rates are at an all time low you might want to look at what it means to you.

What do these numbers mean? Is it a good time to buy? Is it a good time to sell. It all depends on your individual situation. I would rather buy in a buyers market and I would rather sell in a buyers market if I have to buy another home with the proceeds. I am a fan of the NORMAL market – everyone can feel more comfortable and real estate transactions are not as stressful.

If you would like to find out the value of your home please feel free to contact me via phone or email. I would be more than happy to supply you with a FREE Market Analysis.
