Feel like the price of Marin rentals is expensive?  How about taking a look at the price of our real estate!  This year, 94920 has ranked (again) as one of America's most expensive zip codes.  Yahoo! Real Estate article http://realestate.yahoo.com/promo/americas-most-expensive-zip-codes-2010.html said this week that Belvedere Tiburon ranks Number 8 in the country's most expensie zip codes. What does this mean for the Marin county rental market?  Well...the same thing it always does.  Yes, our rentals are expensive.  Sure an $8,000/month rental seems expensive - and don't get us wrong, it is! - but the cost of carrying that same $2.4 million home were you to take out a mortage would be much, much higher. This fall looks to be a nicely balanced rental market, so we're excited to get renti... 10/12/2010

Tiburon and Belvedere home sales remained steady in August 2010 with nine sales - all in Tiburon. Building on a trend noted in this report over the past few months, median sale prices continue to rise while asking prices continue to drop. Both of these very important market indicators point to an improving market and more realistic expectations by sellers - the median price of homes for sale is down 7% and the median price of homes sold is up 4%. Also of interest is the fact that there are 6 homes currently available in Belvedere below $2 million (I don't recall this number of "affordable" homes being available for a number of years) and another 26 such properties for sale in Tiburon. Below are the percentages of homes in escrow in each of the major price bands: 20% of homes priced unde... 09/30/2010

In line with annual trends, Tiburon and Belvedere home sales slipped  in July 2010 — we had just nine sales compared with 13 in July. Building on a trend noted in this report over the past few months, median sale prices continue to rise while asking prices continue to drop. Both of these very important market indicators point to an improving market and more realistic expectations by sellers — the median price of homes for sale is down 7% and the median price of homes sold is up 4%. As asking prices dip and sales prices rise, we are also seeing the absorption rate of our listings (e.g., the amount of time it would take to sell all current inventory) fall — this important statistic shows that the supply of new homes is down by 55% compared with this August 2009. This is a major drop.   B... 09/11/2010
