Current Market Remarks:

The residential market is moving UP in our area. We are running out of inventory in some areas (Like Apple Canyon Lake and The Galena Territory). BUT… There are still bargains out there! While second home prices in the resort areas are creeping upward (HURRY UP), the primary residential homes in our local towns are selling well (if they are priced right). Farm ground prices are stable and are a great cash rent value in this uncertain stock market. Commercial real estate in our market is recovering too, but with COVID-19 it might be time to buy a job at a good price in a tourist location like Galena.  Remember, a lot of our area is covered by Fiber Optic internet service. So, if your looking to relocate your home office, Jo Daviess County is the perfect place. This status changes quickly and is monitored closely by all of our Professional Realtors®, so consult with them BEFORE purchasing.

With interest rates staying low, buyers are looking for bargains in the market.  So this means that while the inventory is shrinking quickly there are still bargains to find for qualified buyers. So if were waiting for the best time to buy: IT IS NOW! Before it is too late and interest rates inch UP, or there is no inventory! The homes and properties that are selling are the ones that are priced properly for today’s market and have the proper exposure (advertising and web presence). All very good reasons to use a professional Realtor® to list your home and sell it, or help you buy your next “On Golden Pond” property in today’s rapidly changing market.

A Word of Caution: While this data can be revealing in many ways, it can also be a little misleading. For example: this does show that the total sales volume for the Galena Territory market has decreased since 2005, it does not split out the vacant lots versus homes sold, or tell you the total number of sales. Adding these data points may skew the data to show that while the dollar volume may be down the average price per home sold may be up and this data may be different for homes versus vacant lots. So, it is IMPORTANT to call your professional Realtor® then he/she can interpret the data towards your buying or selling needs and help you make the right informed real estate decisions for your situation.
