Your Current Spokane Market Update as of 2/6/12

Even thought Phil our proclaimed meteoroligist Groundhog, spotted his shadow and projects there will be another 6 weeks of winter...I am certain the houseing market of Spokane will not remain in the shadows for quite that long.

We have already noticed a rise in the number of homes sold and pending in comparison to the last year, sales numbers are rising as well.

Last years numbers are in and in 2011 we saw 8,701 homes on the market of which 4,020 sold! not too bad!

The odds of selling a home in Spokane right now are running at about a 10-15% chance of happening

The average and median sales prices were Average (167,665) Median (154,900)

How much did we depreciate over all in decreas of Median Price from the year before....-5.10%

Average interest rates in 2011 were 4.42%

When we look at the overall picture of what these numbers indicate it is obvious that Spokane's market is perfect if you are looking to capitalize on a good deal in a time when interest rates are exceedingly low.

~The U.S. economy is facing some formidable challenges in 2012.

But that doesn't mean there aren't plenty of big opportunities.

In fact, the "special situations" impacting the U.S. markets (rampant inflation, slowing growth, European contagion) in the new year have actually opened up pockets of exploding growth, all over the U.S. we are seeing improvement ...albeit it is slow and miniscule but at this venue improvement is everything.

Until next month =)

About Us

It's a long story....
Between us we have over 15 years of Real Estate Experience! We are full time, seasoned agents with a proven success rate! Not to sound like an infomercial, but we hold several awards, are dedicated to our community, we are designated and accredited in many areas. Most importantly we are ethical, fair, fun, and believe that Real Estate is solution based.

Tamra is a Washingtonian and she is a quirky, smart and funny marketing exec. turned Realtor. She brings joy and light to the process of Real Estate with her perception of life and how it is a balancing act. Tamra works wonders on our marketing of homes, creative sector and the day to day processing and negotiating. She is a people person and is great at organizing events and functions to promote our properties...or to just make a buyer feel part of our community. She is the first to think out the angles and hiccups that may occurr in any transaction and if ever you wanted someone who handles every Real Estate transaction like a chess match and has mapped out every move...she is your gal!


As for Lara, she too had a previous life to Real Estate; she grew up in Montana where she was a cattle rancher and a medical billing collector...what a match! She wasn't one of those mean bill collectors, but it taught her alot about negotiating in real life! The catttle...well that's another story but you can almost guess...she says what she means and does what she says. She tends to be a straight shooter that tells you the facts and hard truth of the process. When selling a home or negotiating to buy one you want someone to tell you the facts and keep the communication and processing clipping along at a pace that meets timelines. Lara is goal oriented and a real task minded individual and this is why she tends to do alot of our administrative details. Lara is known as a tough negotiator and really knows how to strike a great deal for our sellers or our buyers, so much so that the opposing party never knew what hit them..."yeah, right!"...ok maybe a little...but seriously, we make a dynamic team!


Our goal is to make a positive difference in our client’s lives. Whether it's helping you find your dream home or selling your current home or even helping one of your trusted friends or family members. We will strive to make your expectations of Real Estate a reality.
