The following matrix shows the last 3 years of activity for home sales in Cedar Ridge Estates, Lake Arrowhead California reported to the Rim Association of Realtors. In 2009 there were only 2 homes sold. 2010 and 2011 saw a significant increase in sales activity.
Notable is when homes in Cedar Ridge sold. It is commonly thought that nothing sells in the mountains the first half of the year. Actually what the data reveals is that 41% of sales happen in the first half and 59% in the second half. For a home to close escrow in March and April, it needs to be put in escrow in January/February which is considered the heart of our Winter. March and April were tied for 3rd for the most active months for closings so those homes were actually shown and put in escrow in January and February.
Often sellers pull their homes off the market during the WInter months because they feel that there will be no sales activity. This is a mistake. Sellers that remain on the market experience less competition from other sellers and a better chance for a sale.
