The Williams household said goodbye to soccer cleats and balls and welcomed back baseball bats, gloves and uniforms. But to be honest, baseball is popular and happens most of the year in my home. :-) It's something I cherish because of my strong belief in the important life lessons sport instills in children. If you are a fan of baseball and remember playing when you were a kid, I invite you to come watch the Mill Valley Little League Opening Day Parade on March 16th. Over 650 kids registered for this coming season so it's quite the experience. Would you be motivated to look at property when the rain is coming down like it was during January's storms? How does this weather pattern affect the real estate market? From what I saw and experienced in January, there were a high number of buyers out searching for homes, especially those priced under $1.5M. The scenario I do anticipate playing out with all the rain we saw in January is the number of new listings, usually considered the 'busy spring selling season', being delayed. I know I'm looking forward to more sunshine. Have questions? Reach out any time! I always enjoy talking with people, even if it seems like it's been a long time since we last communicated. |

Statistics are generalities, essentially summaries of widely disparate data generated by dozens, hundreds or thousands of unique, individual sales occurring within different time periods. They are best seen not as precise measurements, but as broad, comparative indicators, with reasonable margins of error. Anomalous fluctuations in statistics are not uncommon, especially in smaller, expensive market segments. Last period data should be considered estimates that may change with late-reported data. Different analytics programs sometimes define statistics - such as "active listings," "days on market," and "months supply of inventory" - differently: what is most meaningful are not specific calculations but the trends they illustrate. Most listing and sales data derives from the local or regional multi-listing service (MLS) of the area specified in the analysis, but not all listings or sales are reported to MLS and these won't be reflected in the data. "Homes" signifies real-property, single-household housing units: houses, condos, co-ops, townhouses, duets and TICs (but not mobile homes), as applicable to each market. City/town names refer specifically to the named cities and towns, or their MLS areas, unless otherwise delineated. Multicounty metro areas will be specified as such. Data from sources deemed reliable, but may contain errors and subject to revision. All numbers to be considered approximate. Many aspects of value cannot be adequately reflected in median and average statistics: curb appeal, age, condition, amenities, views, lot size, quality of outdoor space, "bonus" rooms, additional parking, quality of location within the neighborhood, and so on. How any of these statistics apply to any particular home is unknown without a specific comparative market analysis. |
