Market Report: Heating UP In Corte Madera

Yes, the Chronicle says we’re in the midst of a giant downturn. The IJ says home sales plummet in January (they did).

Someone forgot tell home buyers in Corte Madera. Real estate sales have picked up quite a bit here. For example, 247 Sausalito, asking $799,000:

Four offers, after 10 days, according to the Selling agent. Now in contract.

And 438 Oakdale, also Corte Madera, $850,000:

Four offers, five days, now in contract.

And 4 Wildflower Court? Asking $1,089,000.

Four days, two offers, now in in contract.

And then 215 Chapman just closed at $875,000 - there were five offers on that, asking was $799,000!

What’s going on?

First, they were all well-priced. Second, three were in Chapman Park, one in Madera del Presidio, both highly desirable neighborhoods in town. Finally smart buyers know that this is a good time to buy - we haven’t had a market this good for buyers in a very long time.

Combine that with some realism on the part of Sellers - and you get action. More about some great deals coming soon….
