Blackhawk Country Club Real Estate Review As Blackhawk Country Club real estate enters the height of the 2017 “selling season” I wanted to look back at how the community performed in 2016. Overall, last year was definitely a “Sellers’ Market”. Inventory of homes for sale remained low, while not as low as this year thusfar, and demand certainly outstripped supply. While the market was not as “heated” as a couple of years ago we did see a rise in the median home price of almost 5% over … [Read more...]
Blackhawk Country Club Real Estate Report
2014 has arrived and it’s time to take a look at how the Blackhawk Country Club real estate market is doing. As with many other cities in the area Blackhawk is currently experiencing an inventory shortage of homes for sale. As of January 8th there are 18 homes in “active” status on the MLS. Of these 18 there are only 5 which have a list price under 1.5MM dollars. That is about as low as I have seen it in a long time. Using the same metric of 1.5MM dollars for homes which are “sale pending” there are only three. The … [Read more...]
Getting to Know Danville – The Neighborhoods
The next phase of “Life in Danville” is upon us. After two and a half years of planning the Danville 2030 General Plan has been adopted and “Expresses the visions and goals of the Danville Citizens for the future of our community”. I moved to Danville from Colorado with my family in 1974. It was a sleepy little town then and even as it has grown many have strived to keep that “small town” feel. My memories of watching the town expand run deep. I attended Montair Elementary, Charlotte Wood Middle School(in its old … [Read more...]

Danville Real Estate Review for 2011
2011 has come to an end and it is time to look forward to what 2012 has in store for us. Danville Single Family home sales enjoyed a nice jump over 2010 rising a little over nine percent. Median prices came under moderate pressure falling just under five percent from 2010. Marketing time remained constant over the last two years averaging just over one month to get a home under contract. In the Condo and Townhouse market we saw a decline in the number of units sold and a bit of a drop in the median price. Marketing … [Read more...]
Danville Real Estate Review 2011 versus 2010 through October
The Danville Real Estate Market is closing out 2011 very similar to 2010. This is good news at this point in the year as the home buyer tax credit gave a bump to sales in the first six months of last year. In the single family home market we see a moderate increase in the number of sales and the average marketing time has only increased by two days. Median home prices have shown a slight drop of just a tick over 3%. Townhomes and condominiums, like many other areas of the Tri-Valley are underperforming. Unit sales … [Read more...]
Year over Year Real Estate Performance in Danville
There was a little news out today about our first storms of the year with the "Earliest Return of Winter Conditions to Lake Tahoe since 1969". I guess that means we can all look forward to another great year of skiing, boarding and snow play. As far as Danville real estate has performed this year versus last the word "steady" comes to mind. Through September the same number of single family homes have transferred in 2011 versus 2010. Median prices are down a little more than two and a half percent while marketing … [Read more...]
