Ratios are simple ways to express the difference between two values such as list price and sold price.  In our case, we typically use the list-to-sale ratio to determine the percentage of the final list price that the buyer ultimately paid.  It is a very common method to help buyers decide how much to offer on a property.  Analysis of the absorption rate indicates an inventory of 4.2 months based on the last 6 months of sales.  This estimate is often used to determine how long it would take to sell off the current inventory of properties if all conditions remained the same.  It is significant to mention that this estimate does not take into consideration any additional properties that will come onto the market in the future.       We also have an amazing selection of Apple Valley Lake h...

Looking at the chart to the below, you might be wondering why average days on market (DOM) is important.  This is a useful measurement because it can help us to determine whether we are in a buyer's market (indicated by high DOM), or a seller's market (indicated by low DOM).  Active listings (properties for sale) have been on the market for a median time of 90 days.  Analysis of sold properties for the last six months reveals a median sold price of $144,405 and 79 days on market.  Notice that properties in the $550K - $600K price range have sold quickest over the last six months. The recent history of sales can be seen in the two charts below. The median sold price for the last 30 days was $124,750 with a DOM of 90 days.       We also have an amazing selection of Apple Valley Lake homes...

The Apple Valley Lake has so many spectacular photo spots on the lake and from around the water.  I captured this photo from the Apple Valley Lake east boat launch that is located on Apple Valley Drive near the spillway overflow.  This is a spectacular fishing spot because the water depth shallows up a bit and it is a great place because the water flows and drains specifically to this location which attracts a lot of fish.     You can view and compare an impressive selection of available Apple Valley Lake homes for sale.  If you are in the market to buy or sell a home or lot at the Apple Valley Lake be sure to connect with Sam Miller and his real estate team at REMAX Stars Realty 740-397-7800 AppleValleyOhio.com.     "Like" our Apple Valley Lake Ohio Facebook page and you will be able ...

The Apple Valley Lake in Knox County Ohio is a hotspot for fun in the sun and it's one of the cleanest swimming and boating lakes in Ohio.  I was talking to a client who was from out of the area and I mentioned that Apple Valley had 3 sandy beaches and he quickly replied with "I didn't know there were any beaches in Ohio" and I just smiled.  The Apple Valley Lake Community is one of the best kept secrets in Central Ohio and the amenities are truly amazing especially for a private lake.
