Time for the 3rd quarter real estate statistics for Brooks, Alberta and the County of Newell. Time and time again there is proof that real estate sells in both good and bad economies.
There were 66 properties that changed hands in Brooks, Alberta and the County of Newell in the last 3 months (July 1, 2009-September 30, 2009). The bad news is that for the same quarter last year there were 94 properties changing hands. That says the market is down 30% in comparison. On a good note, though, the average sale price of these homes remained stable ($199,527(3rd - 2008) & $198271(3rd - 2009).
Currently, there are 130 listings in Brooks, Alberta.
As the Broker and Owner of RE/MAX Main Street Realty, I still have to take the opportunity to “toot my own horn”.
- We own 49% of the market compared to 43% same quarter last year
- Our transactional volume has only dropped 20% compared to our main competitor at over 30%!
- We also maintain 64 listings (50%) of the Brooks, Alberta active listings.
RE/MAX Main Street Realty adopted the philosophy that we are the steakhouse of real estate in Brooks and not just another fast food joint. That means quality and professional service, before, during and after the real estate transaction. We believe that because of this philosophy we have remained stable through these more trying real estate times.
