Summer Inventory Increases on Mt. Hood

Tuesday, July 16, 2013
by Liz Warren

Inventory soared with 33 new properties for the Mt. Hood market this June! Pending sales are up 83% over June's 2012 sales. And total pending sales are up about 6% from last year at this time. What a difference an upturn makes. Not a large number of sales closed though with five total.

How about some sales stats for the year?

61 total sales as of today. Pricing points are as follows:

<$200,000   35 Sales

$200,000-$300,000  14 sales

$300,000-$400,000   8 sales

>$400,000   4 sales

Mountain Closings Down for June 2013!

Saturday, July 13, 2013
by Liz Warren

It came as a complete surprise when June 2013 sales info came out this week. Only five properties went to closing for the month according to RMLS statistics. July numbers will certainly make up for the slow down with 25 sales currently pending. The jump in interest rates slowed applications for mortgages according to lenders but I wouldn't exactly say that is reflected in our current pending sales information. We expect the surge in inventory to keep prices very affordable as many second home sellers have been waiting for an improving market.

Government Camp: Little Log Cabin New on Market

Saturday, July 6, 2013
by Liz Warren

It's an often sought price range for Government Camp and this little log cabin is a gem that sits off of Camp Creek Trail and boarders the Mt. Hood National Forest. Originally built in the 1930's it is a short distance from downtown Govy yet a nice location to getaway from the buzz of downtown. Family owned for a log time too. Metal roof for easy snow load off the roof too. Just the basics at the cabin with a living room, kitchen, bedroom on the main level and a ladder to get upstairs to a double loft. Warm your toes in front of the fireplace. Pull up a log stool for the pancakes coming off the stove. Sit on your deck and enjoy the trickling river outside. Pick huckleberries in the Mt. Hood National Forest out your back door.

Offered at $235.000. Government Camp Log Cabin

Government Camp Fire Station New in 2014

Monday, July 1, 2013
by Liz Warren

Government Camp is slated for a new fire station in 2014 according to Dave Queener Senior Project Manager at Clackamas County. This will help lower rates and make emergency fires receive a quicker response time.  Construction could begin as early as spring next year. Chief Mik Eby of the Hoodland Fire District is hoping it would be operational by fall 2014. The land will be leased from the USFS for 99 years at a cost of $1.00

Monday, June 3, 2013
by Liz Warren

If you need room to spread out and have a need for space, this is the home for you! Your living space includes a large living room area and a super large dining and family room area too. A fully fenced yard with a grass filled yard area is perfect for kids and pets. On cool Mt. Hood nights you can fire up the woodstove after a day on the slopes.

Newer laminate floors make the living room area welcoming. An open kitchen with breakfast bar is fantastic for quick snacks.  Tile counter tops in the kitchen make for easy clean up. A huge master bedroom sets apart from the other bedrooms for lots of privacy. The master has it's own bathroom and walk-in closet. Plus there's another bonus room which can be used as a hobby room or office.

All the bells and whistles including a short walk to the pool and tennis court. Timberline Rim is a great community along the Sandy River. The 4th of July Rim community parade is coming soon! Low home owner's association fees are also a big bonus. Offered at $235,000!
