In Marin County, we currently have 748 active listings (down from 772 in July 2008). While Summer is traditionally slower for home sales, buyers continue visiting open houses en mass. Reports of multiple offers continue, especially for aggressively priced Southern Marin (especially in Mill Valley, Larkspur, Corte Madera, and Tiburon) homes in good locations and bank owned properties in Novato.
Even though the number of homes sold has decreased significantly this year, sellers are holding fast to their prices (particularly in Southern Marin). While interest rates are generally creeping upwards, they remain at historically low levels making it a great buying atmosphere (especially in Novato and San Rafael)–if you are interested in up-to-the-minute rates or a list of homes for sale, contact me.
