Annie Williams Market Report March-April 2016Jon Weaver
When deciding to buy a home in a multiple bid environment, there are some things buyers must do and some things they can do to increase the chances of winning the offer war.
First, all–cash offers are hard to beat, with no need for appraisals and the ability for the buyer to close quickly.
Yet, they can be beat. First, don’t just get a pre-approval letter, get a pre-approval letter on steroids.

Annie Williams Real Estate Report Sept-Oct 2015Jon Weaver
Even with rising home prices over the past few years, many homeowners who have considered selling are deciding not to because they are caught in an affordability squeeze that is
compounded by a lack of inventory, according to findings from the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®’ (C.A.R.) “2015 Survey of California Homeowners.” More than one-third (35%) of homeowners have considered selling their home in the past year, and of that share, about two-thirds (64%) are reluctant to sell because they are finding they can’t afford the home they really want, the survey found.
Crested Butte Real Estate Market Report - Ski Season 2014-2015Chris Kopf
We did not have a great snow year, but visitors, skier days, lodging and sales tax revenue were all up (as much as 16% in Crested Butte through February) compared to last year. Visitors brings interest and activity to real estate and Crested Butte real estate market saw an overall rise in total transactions and volume as well.
Record Homes Sales Again for July 2015! As was the case in June, Dane County home sales in July reached an all-time high for the month. Year-to-date sales are also setting a record pace – exceeding the previous high recorded in 2005. New listings are keeping pace with recent years yet the active inventory continues to fall. This year has been positive as well for the primary market* served by the SCWMLS. Last month we stated that demand is expected to remain high for the second half of the year and nothing has happened to change our mind. As a result, inventories will remain low – below the 6 month figure generally considered to be the market balance between buyers and sellers. Prices (and interest rates) will likely continue to rise. For both buyers and sellers, strategic advice and knowledge of the market from your real estate professional will be valuable assets.

Annie Williams Real Estate Report - Dec 2015Jon Weaver
Housing affordability is one area where California can expect to experience long-term pain. Statewide, the percentage of households that earn enough to purchase a median-priced home rose 34 percent in early 2015 before settling in the low
30s—down from a high of 53 percent in 2011 and 36 percent in 2014. In high-priced coastal cities, percentages have fallen into the teens and lower.
Annie Williams Real Estate Report Nov-Dec 2015Jon Weaver
California home sales to increase slightly, while prices post slowest gain in five years. California’s housing market will continue to improve into 2016, but a shortage of homes on the market and a crimp in housing affordability also will persist,
according to the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®’ (C.A.R.) “2016 California Housing Market Forecast”.

1. On the MOVEThe Helen Adams Realty Monthly Market Update
December 2015
Residential real estate is experiencing its
best year since the recession. Housing
demand is healthy, and that is expected to
continue until the end of the year. Home
sales are actually set to have their best
national showing since 2006. More of the
same is anticipated in 2016, but inventory
and affordability challenges coupled with
mortgage rate increases will likely keep
any sort of monster growth in check.
This should be a good thing for keeping
home prices from increasing too rapidly
to maintain economic stability.
New Listings in the Charlotte region
decreased 4.7 percent to 3,042. Pending
Sales were up 18.1 percent to 3,000.
Inventory levels fell 22.5 percent to 11,666
units.

In
this
Issue
Prices continued to gain traction. The
Median Sales Price increased 9.4 percent to
$197,000.ListtoClosewasdown7.3percent
to 115 days. Sellers were encouraged as
Months Supply of Homes for Sale was down
34.0 percent to 3.3 months.
Unemployment rates across the nation
changed little last month, which bodes
well for an increase in buying activity.
The national jobless rate was 5.0 percent
in October, which was 0.7 percent lower
than the year prior. Although housing and
employment data are quite positive at this
juncture, it is still certainly possible for
listings and sales to be down in year-over-
year comparisons. Bad weather and the mix
of housing available to buyers tend to have
a greater effect on trends at the end of the
year than during the midsummer months.

3. In Memory of Our Founder, Helen Adams
Two thousand fifteen marked a monumental year for Helen Adams Realty. Perhaps most
noteworthy was the celebration of our 40th year in business. The company celebrated by
establishing the Helen Adams Realty scholarship fund at UNC Charlotte and has succeeded
in providing financial aid to its first candidate. Internally, the company continued to celebrate
its commitment to providing the highest level of customer service. This foundation of giving
and giving back was laid by the company’s founder, Helen Adams.
While the year provided many wonderful moments and accomplishments, it also brought sad
times for the Adams family and the company. On November 25th, 2015, Helen passed away.
At the service for Helen, held at Christ Church Charlotte on November 28th, 2015, her family
stood up and, fitting for Thanksgiving weekend, spoke about how thankful they had been to have her in their
lives. Jeff Adams, current President of Helen Adams Realty and Helen’s son, had this to say about his mother
at her service:
“She was a true real estate pioneer and entrepreneur and saleswoman extraordinaire. And in her heyday she sold
the lion’s share of some of the finest homes in town.
So a word about her real estate acumen: I can remember sitting outside of her office and listening to her negotiate
a deal. Her delivery was always eloquent and up-front. She had a great sense of timing and she could always figure
out how to put a deal together – no matter the circumstances. I
realize now that her intuition had a lot to do with her knowledge
of the market and the strong relationships she developed with her
clients, peers and colleagues.
She had a passionate belief that she would make the deal happen
in their best interests. Her clients knew this about her and they
trusted her advice… and this is her legacy.”
Helen will be missed, but her values live on, in her family, her
company, and in all of those that knew her.

Beth's Bits:Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year and one of the best things about Christmas is Christmas
tree decorating! It’s truly an annual event that involves visiting a dozen or more tree vendors or tree farms
to find the perfect tree, then walking down memory lane as we put up ornaments gathered over the years.
Then, we sit back and enjoy it until after “Little Christmas,” which happens to be my birthday, January 6th
(12 days after Christmas). But then what? What do you do with your Christmas tree after Christmas? In-
stead of just throwing it out, here’s some ideas of other things to do with your tree this year:
Mulch With Needles: Pine
needles dry quickly and
decompose slowly, making
them an excellent moisture-
and mold-free mulch for
ground-covering crops, such
as strawberries, to rest on.
Make Coasters and Trivets:
Cut thin slabs off the trunk,
sand them smooth, and apply
a thin coat of polyurethane to
keep the sap off tables and
glassware.
Chip It: Rent a chipper (get
a few neighbors together to
split the cost) and feed the
tree through it. Next spring,
spread the wood chips under
shrubs; they’ll suppress weeds
and, as they decompose, add
nutrients to the soil.
Feed a Fire Pit: It’s fine to use
a few of the quick-to-ignite
branches to start an outdoor
fire pit—but never in an in-
door fireplace, where creosote
build-up is a hazard.
Stake Your Plants: Strip small
branches and use the
remaining twigs to support
indoor potted plants or stake
leggy seedlings.
Create a Bird Sanctuary:
Place your tree in its stand
outdoors. Fill bird feeders
and hang them from the
boughs, or drape the tree with
a swag of pinecones coated
with peanut butter.
Insulate Perennials: Cut off
boughs and lay them over pe-
rennial beds to protect them
from snow and reduce frost
heaving.
Edge Your Borders: Cut the
trunk into 2-inch
discs and set them
into the soil to
edge flower
beds or
walkways.
