Just a Short Hop to End of 2013 - How'd We Do? Real Estate Snapshot
by Dan Jensen
I've posted a short snapshot of the 2013 real estate trends report most recently posted by movoto. Recent fears over the Fed's intentions with regard to easing or tightening money had investors of all kinds taking a "wait and see" attitude. Real Estate potential Buyers, Sellers, & Investors were no exception.
That fear seems to be slipping into the past along with 2013 itself, and RE Buyers/Investors especially, have been ramping up efforts to find and acquire great properties at still great prices and still low interest rates.
Take a look at the Vancouver WA stats below. If you have questions about what's actually happening in the real estate market in general, or to your property(s) specifically, give us a call. We're always glad to help.

"And the Weather Outside is Frightful!"
by Dan Jensen
Here we are in the first week of December, 2013, and weather reports from across the USA are "FRIGHTFUL" indeed! Freezing temperatures and harsh winds blanket much of the core of the Country, and even here on the West Coast, you know... the banana belt of the United States :-), we're having our share of colder and windy as well.
Above and below are two pics of the parking lot here at Equity Northwest Properties on the East side of Vancouver, Washington. Quite a change for us from the beautiful sunny days of the preceding two weeks!
No matter which part of the Country is the part you call "home", we wish you warm homes, warm cars, warm meals, and a life that surrounds you with hearts that are filled with warmth!
