Tracking San Luis Obispo County Luxury Homes Sales
With the naming of San Luis Obispo as the “Happiest Place to Live in the US“, I believe we will see an increase in the high end or luxury home sales. I have heard that the San Luis Obispo Chamber of Commerce, among others, is seeing an increase in inquiries about the county. I have noticed and increase in interest from out-of-area buyers on my real estate websites. The word is out – we live in an incredible place!
As for the activity or stats, our Central Coast Multiple Listing Service shows there are currently 63 homes over $2,000,000 in San Luis Obispo County for sale. Only two are showing pending in the MLS as of the end of April, 2011, but five have already closed escrow in 2011. Under the $2,000,000 range, from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000, the sales number five times that amount, at 26 sales this year. We predict this number will continue to rise due to the timing of the year too. Spring going into summer is notoriously the best time to be on the market.
I track the luxury market in San Luis Obispo County regularly and believe if a luxury home is priced right and marketed aggressively, property sales will continue to increase. As a graduate of The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing, I offer two very comprehensive luxury home marketing plan from which to choose.
