Mt. Hood Sleigh Rides in Government Camp
Tuesday, December 18, 2012
The recent dumping of snow on Mt. Hood in Government Camp signals the beginning of horse drawn sleigh rides through the streets of Govy! The sleigh is pulled by large Clydesdales who meander through snow covered roadways. What a treat if you’ve never had the opportunity to enjoy one of the top winter attractions in the Mt. Hood area. If your family is taking a day off from the slopes this is a great way to participate in a scenic snowy jaunt
Mt. Hood Sales Surge this Fall 2012!
Monday, December 17, 2012
Let’s take a look at the whopping 18 closed sales for the month of November on Mt. Hood listed below. The leased land cabins in the Mt. Hood National Forest came on gang busters with seven closed cabins. This is definitely a record breaking month for cabins. Typically summer months bring buyers out in droves for cabins but this year the fall brought cabin buyers out of the woods. The other strong segment of sales were cabins that were on fee simple land, or in other words, on their own land. These ranged in the areas of $100,000 to $200,000 mostly.
Timberline Rim racked up two sales and Zig Zag Village totaled one sale. Both of these subdivisions offer amenities of swimming pools and tennis courts which many homeowners prefer especially with kids.
The good news is that the more inventories that get sold the closer the mountain is to price stabilization.
If this isn’t the best time in history to buy on the mountain, I don’t know what is! Record low interest rates and plenty of cabins and homes to choose from makes a mountain purchase on the TO DO list for 2013!

Consistent Numbers of Mountain Sales for Fall 2012!
Wednesday, November 28, 2012
It's been an active fall for sales in the Mt. Hood area. Here are the market action stats for this past October. As November is quickly coming to a close we expect current trends to continue in a postive manner.
RMLS market action shows that pending sales are up 66% for the month of October. There are 25 pending sales currently in RMLS . Part of this high number of pending sales are short sales waiting for approval from lenders and they carry over for months. This could definitely give a false sense of a realistic view of the market. The good news is that by the end of October we have as many sales as we had in 2011. We will likely see an increase of 20% in number of sales over last year by the end of this year.
The eleven sales show average marketing days as 315! Plenty of inventory shows we have not come close to a buyers market yet. The monthly cost to purchase today is incredibly low historically. If you are looking to purchase on the mountain today's inventory has a lot to choose from! Check out the stats below!
