11 F e b r u a r y 2 0 1 5 C l i N T o N R E A l E S T A T E . C o m Clinton Township Homes Market Unexpectedly Strong! This has been a bit of an odd year for Clinton Township real es- tate. It seems the long series of snow storms knocked the wind out of the early Spring market and it never really came roaring back the way we'd have thought. The trend since 2012 has been for more sales and higher prices every year, as you can see on my Market News blog at ClintonRealEstate.com, and 2014 is no exception. Buyers are out there and they're looking for a home like yours! Donald Sherblom, Coldwell Banker, Clinton, 908.735.8080 ext. 132. Please call my cell: 908.797.9900.
