There is less competition among sellers, the home buyers are serious and have fewer homes from which to choose. A quick look at sales and new listings in Clinton Township proves the case. The number of closings only dropped off from 13 to 11 in November while the number of new listings fell precipitously. With only 4 homes listed for sale in November, the ratio of buyers to sellers improved, good news for home sellers in December may indicate an early thaw in the Spring 2014 homes market. Every month I post pictures and details of every sold home on my website: ClintonRealEstate.com. Let's talk real estate. Donald Sherblom, Coldwell Banker, Clinton (908) 735-8080 x132.
