Truckee North Lake Tahoe September 2009 Stats

Yes, well the trend continues to move forward – our numbers are up again!! Must be fall because typically these are the months when people finally decide to make a decision on a home. Buyers finally decide that they NEED a home in the mountains before the snow falls and Sellers decide that they don’t want to maintain a home for another winter. Last month’s 84 sales of condos and single family residences ratcheted up this month to a whopping 115!! Typically this trend will continue until Thanksgiving.
