...................There is a Season - Turn, Turn, Turn.

As the season begins to turn to fall it makes we think of winter.  For many of you this thought is not pleasant, but for most of us in Upstate New York it is a time for skiing!!!  Just north of Clifton Park, NY is West Mountain.  This ski resort is perfect for all levels of skiers and many schools in, and around Clifton Park run ski clubs after school.  West Mountain is only 45 minutes north of Clifton Park and is a perfect resort for a quick ski during the week.  Please see their Web site for rates and schedules.

My family and I spent Sunday afternoon enjoying the fall harvest in the great NE.  Apple picking has become one of our favorite past-times.  Our eldest daughter was home for college so all 6 of us went to Bowman Orchards http://bowmanorchards.com for some apple picking, pedal car races, apple cannon shooting, and petting the alpaca.

It is a great way to spend time with your family in the Clifton Park area.  In addition to picking some great produce, they have awesome cider and donuts and we picked out a nice pumpkin for Halloween.  If you are ever in the area, be sure to stop by their store.

If you have any questions about the real estate market in Southern Saratoga County (Clifton Park, Ballston Lake, Halfmoon, Waterford, Rexford, Malta, Ballston Spa), please be sure to let me know and I would love to help you.  Thank you.

The National Association of Realtors just announced a press release that indicates Pending Home Sales jumped 7.4% in August and is up 8.8% from last August.  Obviously, buyers are taking advantage of lower home prices, higher inventory levels, and low interest rates.  This is great news for Clifton Park and all of the Capital District Real Estate market.

Hard hit regions like California, Florida, and Arizona contributed nicely to this new level.  The Northeast saw very similar numbers as the national results.  In Clifton Park, we have been very fortunate in the past two years and have seen only modest declines (1%-3%) in median home prices.

So, if you are thinking about buying or selling your home, please give me a call so we can meet.  NOW is the time to buy!!!  I will be happy to provide you with a free consultation of your home and your neighborhood.

Thank you.
