Just a short update on the housing market.

April was the best month since July of 2005 for sales in Venice!

Here are the number of homes and condos closed in Venice as reported by the Venice MLS, May 11th, 2010.

January           105

February         128

March               176

April                   201  

Of those 201 sales 20 were bank owned and 21 were short sales,  Interestingly the percentage of Bank owned and short sale transactions have consistently hovered around that 20% of the total sales. 

Now certainly seems like the time to buy!  

It’s always in your best interest to choose an agent that knows the market. I know the market! Call or e-mail me when you need to buy or sell real estate.
