Market On The Move?!
Busy weekend. I had the opportunity to work with two different clients. While that is not news worthy, the price range of homes was. Both of my clients were looking at homes over $350,000 in value. Both have attachments to Maryland and will be commuting. What makes this of interest, this segment of our local market has been extremely quiet the last 18 months. To have not one, but two clients in the same weekend could be an indicator that our relocating, “move up” buyers are starting to become more active. I think we will also see a marked increase in homes being marketed in this price range. Numerous sellers have refrained from listing their properties because of the lack of buyer interest. I would anticipate a slight “uptick” in home prices, but still excellent values when coupled with the low interest rates. Great time to take advantage of the market. If we can provide you with any additonal market information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Happy Faschnaut Day!
Fat Tuesday, the day before the start of Lent, it is tradition to use up the items in your kitchen that wouldn’t be used during the semi-fasting period to follow. Here in southern PA, home to the PA Dutch and Amish, the day is known as “Faschnaut Day”. A faschnaut is a wonderfully sinful deep fried donut originally made for the purpose of using up some of that kitchen stock. A great place to find this treat-Brown’s Orchard & Farm Market.
