JEFFERSON COUNTY~REAL ESTATE MARKET
Due to the slew of investors and flippers driving up our real estate values in 2005, the Market has corrected itself in our area. Now in 2006 and 2007 the investors are gone. Home values are not soaring out the roof. I have seen some property reductions and creative purchases in order to close the deal. In the current market, if your property is priced correctly it will sell. Due to the fact that the buyer has more choices to consider, it may take a little longer than normal to move a property. I have had properties to sell in 2 weeks and others it took up to an year. Just in this unpredictable market I can only give my sellers a guess. The advice I can give Sellers is to listen to their Real Estate Agent, when it comes to pricing their properties.
