There were 18 price changes, 2 sales and 2 homes that fell out of escrow, 4 new properties in escrow with 21 properties in contract currently.

Incline Village Real Estate Market December 21
Incline Village Real Estate December 21
We have seen a slight increase in activity for December. With mortgage rates hoovering at 4 year lows around 5% for a 30 year fixed mortgage, buyers who have good credit and can qualify for documented loans are seeing opportunity in the market.
One notable sale that I represented the buyers for at 521 Sugarpine closed last Friday for $530,000, it was listed for $599,000 and was a fantastic buy for a 3 story home, remodeled on 3/4 of an acre in desirable Ponderosa neighborhood. The home 2 doors down at 527 Sugarine is in contract with a list price of $3.495M, so this helps supports the value here.
19 new listings came onto the Incline Village and Crystal Bay market in the past two weeks, including 8 homes, 2 PUD’s, 8 condos and 1 commercial listing. There were 23 price changes, 3 new properties in escrow including 928 Dorcey listed at $595,000, 121 Rubicon listed at $1,495,000- an amazing buy, and 88 Shoreline Circle listed at $2,695,000- a quiet location across from the Lake. There are 17 properties in contract currently and 6 sales have closed in the past two weeks.

Incline Village Real Estate Activity
The pace of activity has picked up slightly on the Incline Village market lately. Two great opportunities for lakefront condos have become available at Stillwater Cover and Crystal Shore West- both front row, panoramic lake view units (2 at CSW but seller will only part with one or the other). Both of these complexes have marina facilities and Stillwater has tennis courts, an outdoor pool and waterfront restaurant for owners.
Some very good buys went into escrow, including 121 Rubicon- a $1.495M 4,779 sq ft home which would be the lowest priced sale in all of Lakeview Subd. for 2008 (I am reresenting the buyer), and 527 Sugarpine-of the finest quality new construction listings, reduced to nearly half of its original asking price with panoramic lake views, great level lot and low elevation- this was a good buy!

Incline Village Real Estate Report July 2008
The numbers are in and sales for single family homes are down for the 1st half of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. It seems there are lots of buyers on the sidelines looking for good deals, and weakening sales prices offer more opportunities, especially if you know which sellers are motivated.
The median price for an Incline Village home sank to $1,042,500, down 13% from the median price in the first half of 2007 at $1,200,000. The average price was down 17% to $1,419,464 from $1,708,492 in 2007. (Based on data I compiled from the Incline Village MLS, EXCLUDING PUD’s).
The median price for a condo in Incline Village dropped to $489,000 from $587,500 in the first half of 2008 from that period last year, a decrease of 17%. The average price for a condo was down 20%.
The lowest priced home to sell in 1st half 2008 was $560,000 compared to a $600,000 home sold in 2007. The highest priced home to date in 2008 is $6,700,000 down from the $8,500,000 home sold 1st half 2007.
Average list to sale price in 2008 is 90% compared to 94% in 2007 for the same period, showing some strength in buyer positioning in this down market. The average days on market is 154 in 2008 compared to 187 in 2007- are sellers more motivated to sell?
Through June 30, 44 homes sold in 2008 compared to 73 homes sold last year- this is a 40% decline in # of units sold. In 2008, 22 homes sold over $1M and 22 sold under $1M, compared to 2007, 48 sold over $1M and 25 sold under $1M. Last year at this point, there were 20 home sales over $2M, whereas midyear 2008 we have only seen 6 sales over $2M. The high-end market is contracting, with a lot of supply and much less demand.
