It’s a new year, and here at Kurfiss Sotheby’s International Realty, we’re happy for a fresh start. We’re launching our blog to share real-estate and mortgage trends for Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and the greater Philadelphia area, to highlight our more unusual listings and to seek feedback from members of the community about their real-estate experiences.
Let’s launch this blog with a summary of what we’ve seen so far in 2009.
SALES: Activity is UP according to our lead reports and activity on our web site, several listings have gone under agreement this week and agents tell us they are busy showing property, including some in the multi-million dollar range. Could these be New Jersey residents hoping to flee their state’s onerous property taxes and take haven in Pennsylvania? Let’s see whether this activity turns into agreements of sale…
LISTINGS: We have quite a lot of new listings in Philadelphia and, wow, they are sharp. Here in the marketing department, we’re especially enchanted by a penthouse at 2200 Arch (the former Daily News building) with spectacular Eastern skyline views. What is it about a city skyline that’s so mesmerizing, especially at night?
Happily, we are just about to print our first catalog of properties, called The Collection. Here’s a sneak peek. We’d like to thank some area businesses for supporting this effort, including Barley Sheaf Farm Estate & Spa, 1706 Rittenhouse and Bucks County Blacksmiths at Elm Grove Forge.
Please send us feedback on the catalog. It’s our inaugural effort and we will soon begin planning for the Spring/Summer 2009 edition.
