Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all time thing. You don't win once in a while, you don't do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.

CONNIE'S CORNER:

2011 RESIDENTIAL
CONDOMINIUM SALES ANALYSIS

There were 80 residential condominium units sold in Northern Door in 2011. Stony Ridge Condominium in Sister Bay had the most sales per individual complex with 10 sales. The sale prices at Stony Ridge ranged from $81,500 to $119,900. Northhaven Condominium in Fish Creek came in second with 6 sales ranging from $190,000 to $280,000. Harbor Vista Condominium in Egg Harbor was next in line, selling 5 units. The sale prices at Harbor Vista ranged from $180,000 to $350,000. Fish Creek’s Half Mile Bridge, Hidden Blossom, and Hidden Harbor Condominiums each had 4 sales per development as did Horseshoe Bay Farms in Egg Harbor. The least expensive unit that sold was at Stony Ridge Condominium at $81,500 and the most expensive was at Mariners Pointe Condominium in Sister Bay at $809,000. On average, these units sold at 93.17% of listing price and took 389 days to sell.

While you might find the days on market shocking, during my 28 year tenure in this business, condominiums have always taken 8 months to 18 months to sell.  Remember that a second home market is always a discretionary income...most Buyers do not NEED to buy.

As a member of the multiple listing service, I can help you with anything, including condominiums, for sale in Door County.  During my 28 years in this business, there's not too much I have not seen.  I am here to help you, your family, and/or friends with your Door County real estate goals.

You can see details of all 80 residential condominium sales here.

Fun Groundhog Day Facts...

The first official Groundhog Day was celebrated on February 2, 1886 in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania.

Punxutawney is located in Western Pennsylvania, about 80 miles northeast of Pittsburgh. It was first settled by the Delaware Indians in 1723.  It is named for its location "ponksad-uteney", which means the "town of the sandflies."

In 1887 the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club named their groundhog "Punxsutawney Phil, Seer of Seers, Sage of Sages, Prognosticator of Prognosticators and Weather Prophet Extraordinary" and that same year they declared Punxsutawney to be the weather capital of the world!
