January 2011 Inventory, Sold

Here are the year-end 2010 Inventory, Sold, and New listings numbers, plus January 2011. I keep the counts going, but haven't gotten around to posting them very often. To make them simpler I've also dropped New listings for 2011.

The housing bubble is not new news anymore, but its effects aren't over yet and I want to keep this statistical record going.

So where are we? So far the latter part of 2010 and beginning of 2011 are looking pretty close to the year before, when prices neither rose nor fell. We'll see how this spring plays out.

thanks for running an outstanding blog. Much appreciated. You provide a balanced view.

You speak the truth, and for that you are hated by the realtors. Realtors are trying to persuade foolish people to buy right now.

At the same time, speaking the truth earns you the hate of the doomsayers.

So keep up the good work.

Can you start a new thread to discuss the market for double lots North of Montana?

My architect tells me that if I buy two teardowns next to each other the city will not let me combine the two lots and build one home in the center of the two lots. This is frustrating to me since I want distace between my house and the neighbors.

I just noticed that at 450 20th, a family had purchased two teardowns, scraped them both, and was in the process of building a single large house that straddles both pieces of land.

Latesummer could you drive by and see for yourself?

I am befuddled by this, why was this family allowed to combine two lots and build one large home in the middle?
