So far in 2021, the market has proven to be extremely competitive for Buyers as inventory remains deficient and demand is extremely high.  Prices are rising sharply and multiple offers are the norm.

In recent months, sale prices have reached levels that match and in some cases exceed values of comparable sales during the 2005/2006 boom. The median sale price of condo/townhome properties sold to-date in 2021 is up 26% over 2019.  Prices of single family home properties are up 55% compared to 2019.  This is inflated due to a few high dollar sales early in the year, but the trend is none-the-less very impressive.  It is hard to predict how long this market will last… what we know for certain is that Spring is upon us and NOW is an opportune time!  If

A Message from Dickens Parlour Theatre:

Dear Friends,
In contemplating our tenth anniversary year in 2020, we anticipated that January would be dark. We had no reason to believe we would be shuttered for what amounted to most of the remainder of 2020, as well. When it became apparent that productions of any kind would be hopeless, Susan, Cheryl, Jay, and I sat down to discuss the best way to utilize our enforced respite.

Enter the Good Earth Market.
Located about a mile west of us on Route 26, the
Good Earth Market, which began operations at about the same time as we did, has, for the past decade, been not only one of my favorite food purveyors in the world (Sue Bloch casts a concurring vote on that), but

David Muhlbaum and Rocky Mengle of Kiplinger.com review the 10 states that you should consider for retirement due to their tax-friendly rules and regulations.

If you’re thinking of moving to a different state in retirement, you’ll want to consider climate, proximity to family and friends, access to quality health care, and a host of other important factors before picking a new location. But make sure you add taxes in the new state to the list of considerations. The total state and local tax burden in one place can be thousands of dollars more per year than in another. That can make a huge difference when you’re trying to stretch out your retirement savings.

With no sales tax, low property taxes, and no death taxes, it should come as no surprise

Typically, January brings some slow down in real estate activity when compared with our warm summer months, but we are experiencing a time like never before at the beach. In fact, in January of 2021, 36 properties went under contract in the Bethany-Fenwick area.  This is up 50% over 24 in January of 2020.

We are often asked whether we are in a buyer’s market or a seller’s market. Based on our communications over the last 8 months, it should be no surprise that we are clearly in a seller’s market.  However, to put this into perspective, we need to calculate Months of Inventory, also known as the Absorption Rate.

Typically, January brings some slow down in real estate activity when compared with our warm summer months, but we are experiencing a time like never before at the beach. In fact, in January, 7 properties went under contract in Sea Colony.  This is up 40% over 5 in January of 2020 and it would be much higher if there was more inventory available.  There are currently 5 listings in the East and zero on the West!
