November Market Update


"I know that the last time I wrote to you all, I talked about how amazed I was that it was already August. Now I’m here in November and I’m still amazed by where we are in the calendar. Thanksgiving is almost here, and then comes all of the holidays at the end of the year. Wow. Plus, with all of this we had a monumental election. (To be honest, I was waiting to write this until the official results were in, but that might be a while so here I am.)

Speaking of homes and the market in general, things have slowed, but not stopped here in our great city. Interest Rates are at historic lows and giving you more buying power, but at many price points inventory is low. You can’t buy it if it’s not there. If you do find what you’re looking for, it’s a great time to buy. We still need more listings, so if you are on the fence about selling your home right now, let’s take a look at your situation. We can show you how this is a great time to get your home listed and sold.


No matter what your plans (sell, buy, rent, or invest) we are here to guide you and give you the advice and experience you've grown to know and trust. We never work from a place of fear and do our level best to be the best advisors we can.

As we move into Thanksgiving, I hope you can find time to spend it with your family (mask up, people!) and be grateful for what you have. Blessings on you and your family this holiday
." - Marc Dumas
