A Weekend in NYC!

April 21, 2015 by Nadine

I recently had a fun couple of days in “the city”. First stop was tkts, where I got tickets for Wolf Hall. Liked it, but not as much as the critic from the Times did.

Next day 11 of us went to The Lion King, which was as engaging as it was 10 years ago when 6 of us saw it for the first time.

We all agreed that Times Square is, if possible, even more chaotic and loud than we remembered. I thought those little flags you see groups carrying in Europe would have been useful for us.

Waterview Condos, Part 1

182 Bayfront Way, Unit 31-3, East Falmouth$449,000

Falmouthport was built in the 1970’s and is a good-sized complex, with 210 units. The surroundings are woodsy, and there’s a lovely salt water inlet that goes out to the ocean – and also a pool, tennis courts, and a clubhouse. This particular unit is on three levels, all with wide water views. It’s been tastefully renovated, and so will be a pleasure for a new owner to move into. With 1,343 sf (which does not include the finished lower level), the asking price of $449,000 is just about right for a waterfront unit. Condo fees are reasonable and stable here; for this unit, it’s $431 a month. But the buyer has to be okay with not having a garage, as there are no garages in Falmouthport.

$535,000

24 Landfall, Unit 34, Quissett (Falmouth)
$539,000

Treetops is a late 1970’s condo complex just off Woods Hole Road. Sited at the top of Oyster Pond, and facing south down the length of the pond to Vineyard Sound, or west across the pond, the views are particularly lovely. The units are three floors, and all have sliders or large windows showcasing these views.

With only 62 units in total, this is an intimate neighborhood, but it still offers the pool, clubhouse, and tennis courts that are desired by many condo owners. In addition, Treetops has a private beach on Vineyard Sound, and although it’s not on the property, it’s only about a 10-minute walk, 5-minute bike ride, or 2-minute drive.

During the height of the market, Treetops units were sought after, and sold for more than the current prices. With the downturn and the passing of time (so that original units began to look dated); and with a new small private wind turbine across the street at the Woods Hole Research Center, values declined a bit. Some homes still sell in the $600’s, but the two I’m featuring today are in the low 500’s, a very good value. These two units show well, are immaculate, well-maintained, and even though not spiffily HGTV-worthy, are neutral and easy to move into as is. But they are on three levels, too much for some potential Buyers.

So you’d think that the real estate market would take a little vacation, wouldn’t you? And maybe it did, for a few weeks. But the most extraordinary thing is, the market’s hot!

Once the road crews got through the first couple of storms this winter, they got the routine down, and our roads and even sidewalks were navigable. I stayed home only two days during the entire snow blitz, and my clients were tooling around with me, making offers.

But so were everyone else’s clients, it seems! I really didn’t expect that every house my buyers made offers on would have other offers as well. Every time I showed a house, there were other showings just before or after mine, on a Monday afternoon at 4:30 or a Thursday morning at 10:00. I was in disbelief. What, there are other buyers out there, during the week, during or just after another snowstorm? But this happened all winter.

So – you’re hearing it here first – our market turned from a Buyer’s to a Seller’s during our recent winter of weather to remember. Totally unpredictable!
