Home Inventory Increases in South Lake Tahoe… and More are Coming.

South Lake Tahoe Inventory and EscrowMore listings means more competition, more choices and more opportunities for Buyers.

We see it every year here in our South Lake Tahoe real estate market. It’s the perception among area home Sellers that there is a “selling” season. See the post below for further discussion and market facts about this perception.

More often than not, more home sales are produced after labor day each year, and sometimes in March and April. Since most homeowners don’t live here, those that want to sell their home would rather put it on the market after the snow melts. That makes sense, it’s easier! But it’s also to a Buyer’s advantage. And since Buyers drive every real estate market, this is good news!

Separating Fact from Fiction: The Real Estate “Season” in South Lake Tahoe.

Any time is a great time to Sell or Buy a reasonably priced home.

One of the questions we’re most frequently asked is, “when is the best time to list a house?” The same question in different forms that we hear is, “what is the selling season”, and “when are the most buyers around.” Coming from a Seller, the sub-text of this question is when can I get the most for my house, and from a Buyer, it’s when can I buy a house for the least?

The truth is there is no selling or buying season in our South Lake Tahoe real estate market. There is no particular time that one can necessarily get more for a house than another, nor is there a specific time when a Buyer can pay less than another.

Your Own, Private Ponderosa!

The Lodge at Logan Creek - Lake TahoeThe Lodge at Logan Creek: Where fantasy and reality meet in the High Sierra.

Imagine what you would want in a mountain lodge home. Well, it would have to have lots of wood inside, tall ceilings, fireplaces of course… it would have to feel like the old west, yet have all of the necessary modern conveniences.

Seclusion would be good. A running creek next to the house would be great, particularly if one could hear it in bed, and a high mountain forest around it would ideal. If one could get to the forest from the backyard, and there was miles and miles of it… well, that would mean a few outbuildings would be nice, and if one could get up in that mountain forest on a horse, well that would be just about perfect.
