okREblog - It’s All REALative

I received a request for information today on property values in the Stonebrook @ Coffee Creek addition of Edmond.  Here’s the basic nuts & bolts of the sold activity in this section of Coffee Creek over the past 12 months:

Well, it’s been another busy week around here… we’re in the midst of that time of year when buyers are out in full force looking for a new place to call home, and many home owners have it on their mind to get listed and take advantage of that buyer traffic.

As a result, I think we’ll see the activity in the Homestead addition pick up over the next few weeks, so I thought now would be a good time to post a summary of what’s selling, what’s not, and what’s new on the market in Homestead.

People always want to know “What did that house around the corner sell for” or “How much is that house on X street listed for?” So, I designed this report to keep you up-to-date on inventory levels, then quarterly I’ll break down overall neighborhood pricing and compare it to the previous year. This combination gives us all a real pulse on the health of the Homestead real estate market. Hopefully, it will be a useful resource for all of the current home owners, and those thinking about moving here.

Here are the Homestead homes that closed within the past 60 days:

And here are the homes currently on the market in Homestead (Active & Pending):

I’m always looking for ways to offer more value to my clients, and technology is usually the best way I find to do it.  Sometimes it’s as simple as adding something to our Edmond real estate website that will help you find what you need more easily.

Yes, our website’s a constant work in progress.  A few months back, a real estate magazine wanted to do an interview with me about how I use the internet in my business, and they said ‘call us when you’re website’s complete.’  I couldn’t help but laugh.  It will never be ‘complete.’  There’s always a new something I could add that will help you, the end user, and with that in mind, I spend many hours each week tweaking.

The hardest part of the tweaking is knowing exactly what I can do that will REALLY help.  Most times it’s a gamble.  However, I got an email a few weeks ago from a gentleman looking for very specific information on several Edmond neighborhoods.  After paying me several compliments, he mentioned that he was able to find bits & pieces about certain Edmond communities all over the place, but that it would really help him if there was one place he could go to find all that information together.  Obviously, that would save him A LOT of time.  He even took the time to go into great detail about specifically what he’s looking for in a website, and attached a spreadsheet example of how he’d been compiling his information.  Thanks a million Steve!

Needless to say, this type of input and help from a real-life home buyer is priceless.  I’m so thankful to him for taking the time to outline for me exactly what many of you out there need.  My goal is always to simplify the home buying and home selling processes, and what better way to do it than to get a true glimpse into a consumer’s mind.

With all that said, I’ve begun the lengthy process of compiling detailed information on the over 300 different neighborhoods in Edmond, and putting it all into an easy-to-read format, and I’m now offering this information to all interested home buyers who might find it useful.  It’s not complete yet, and probably never will be truly complete (another work in progress), but it’s a good start.

So, if you’re looking for information on Edmond neighborhoods’ price ranges, amenities, locations, school districts, etc, go to the new section of my site to get your own copy of what I’ve compiled.

As I said yesterday, it’s been a busy week around here… we’re in the midst of that time of year when buyers are out in full force looking for a new place to call home, and many home owners have it on their mind to get listed and take advantage of that buyer traffic.

As a result, I got a call this afternoon from a gentleman who lives in Fenwick, located between Penn and Western, North of NW 164th.  While researching the current sales and listings in Fenwick, I thought now would be a good time to post a summary of what’s selling, what’s not, and what’s new on the market in Fenwick.

It’s been a busy week around here… the home buyers are out in full force and we’ve had more requests than normal for information about certain neighborhoods.  While researching the Copper Creek addition (SE corner of NW 178th & Penn) yesterday, I thought now would be a good time to post a summary of what’s selling, what’s not, and what’s new on the market in Copper Creek?

You’d be amazed at how often I get asked “What did that house around the corner sell for” or “How much is that house on X street listed for?” As a result, I designed this report to keep you up-to-date on inventory levels, then quarterly I’ll break down overall neighborhood pricing and compare it to the previous year.

A good friend of mine bought a gorgeous home in Summer Ridge last year, and he’s really in tune with what’s going on in the neighborhood. Of course, I’m always interested too, since it’s one of the communities I had a part in developing, so I thought I’d dig in to see what’s been going on in the neighborhood over the past 60 days.

So, what’s selling, what’s not, and what’s new on the market in Summer Ridge?

I got a call today from a gentleman who lives in Cedar Pointe and is thinking about selling his home.  I figured while I’m researching the most recent comps in the neighborhood, now would be a good time for my monthly report on what’s selling, what’s not, and what’s new on the market in Cedar Pointe.

I’m constantly tweaking the format of this type of report, so please bear with me as I work through the logistics, and if there’s something you’d like me to include in these posts that would make them more useful, please email me.

It’s time for the March 2008 edition of my monthly report on what’s selling, what’s not, and what’s new on the market in Cheyenne Crossing.

You’d be amazed at how often I get asked “What did that house around the corner sell for” or “How much is that house on X street listed for?” Especially since I have several friends and clients who live in Cheyenne Crossing, who seem to be particularly interested in what’s going on in their neighborhood.

Now, normally I’d have a chart here showing the homes that have sold in Cheyenne Crossing during the past 60 days, but I can’t do that this month, simply because the last home closed in the neighborhood was in December.  So, this month, I’m only posting the homes currently listed in Cheyenne Crossing (Active & Pending):
