Camas WA Real Estate -- September sales were Slow like August! After a reasonably good level of sales activity prior to the expiry of the Home Buyer Tax Credit, Camas Home Sales continue to be at a much lower level, with a softening of prices after a sharp price increase this Spring. Earlier this month we've logged into the Camas MLS to obtain a quick snap-shot view of what happened real estate wise within the confines of Camas for the month of September. Here is what we have to report: From this quick look at the home sales action we see 37 more Active listings with the mix consistently weighted relative to the distressed property category levels in the existing inventory.  However, the Pending Sales did move up to about 1/2 of the transactions from just over 1/3rd.  The number of Clos... 10/08/2010

 Camas WA Real Estate -- August Slowed Even More! Once again homes for sale in Camas have been at a lower activity level reflective of both the slower summer season, and the healing of the local and national economy. Earlier this month we've logged into the Camas MLS to obtain a quick snap-shot view of what happened real estate wise within the confines of Camas for the month of August. Here is what we have to report: From this quick look at the home sales action we see the same number of Active listings with the mix more heavily weighted to the distressed property category; and with 11 fewer homes going Pending than last month.As the national pundits have told us, we should expect the "Option-ARM" adjustments to kick in this year and force more home owners to becoming distressed and una... 09/23/2010

  Camas WA Real Estate -- July's activity is Slow Again! Once again homes for sale in Camas have been healing from the challenging overall economy, and the excess inventory of Camas Short Sale Homes and Bank Owned homes. We've logged into the Camas MLS (covers Vancouver Washington also) to obtain a quick snap-shot view of what happened real estate wise within the confines of Camas for the month of July. Here is what we have to report: From this quick view, like last month we see an upward "blip" in the number of Short Sales going Pending. Short sales usually only go pending after the lending bank(s) have approved a buyer's offer, rather than the typically earlier point in time when the Seller agrees to the buyers terms. Part of this may be due to the new MLS rule change which allows the... 08/12/2010

         New Camas Homes Can Cost Less than Camas Bank Owned Homes! When searching for homes for sale in Camas, in addition to Vancouver homes for sale, the conventional wisdom seems to say that Bank Owned Homes are the best "deals" out there, followed perhaps by the many Vancouver short sale homes for sale. After viewing several distressed properties with our new clients, they became very frustrated with the locations and condition of the homes they saw in the $350,000 price range.  We then suggested looking at having a new home built for them at Lakeridge North in Camas.  The lots that had once sold north of $250,000 were now being sold from $75,000 to $150,000 -- a discount of over $100,000 from the previous prices! During this recession we are hearing that some building materials, a... 07/30/2010

But it has that something special, that spark that makes it "the heartbeat" of the community. It has been open for so many years...I used to go there when my daughters were very little.

This July 24th, 2010 at 11:00 a.m is the main parade for our HUGE Camas Days celebration! There are so many fun things to do and see at Camas Days--and you might even get free toilet paper! The parade is great. It begins at St. Thomas Church on Oak Street and winds up down by the Georgia Pacific Paper Mill. Their Georgia Pacific float is so much fun and we wait for it every year to see if we can catch some of the free rolls of toilet paper flung from their float. It's not the money that's important...it's just to see if we can catch it and have bragging rights! It's kinda like "Mardi Gras" but not as shiny. The Paper Mill has been a mainstay in our area for over forty years. It has slowed down in the last ten years but still is important to our economy. In July, "Camas Days", is downtow... 07/21/2010
