We have seen showing activity slow the past 3-4 weeks, but it is difficult to tell yet if it is just the typical holiday slowdown or if we are starting to see a reflection of the slower economy.  Looking at the numbers the market continues to look very strong.  Here are some highlights from this month's update:

• We currently have 90 homes under contract down from 103 last month.  However, this is similar to the number under contract at this time last year (91).
• Over the last 12 months there have been 867 homes sold which is the exact same number as sold during the same time period last year. 
• Looking at our past December market reports since 2009 our inventory has ranged from 277-359 homes on the market and 53-91 homes under contract.  We currently sit at 331 and 90 respectively.
• Our days on market and absorption rate have gone unchanged from last month at 101 days and 4.6 months respectively.

Overall the numbers continue to paint a positive picture for the Gillette real estate market.  When you have questions or need additional information please don't hesitate to contact us.  We wish you a very Merry Christmas and a great start to 2016!  As always, the greatest compliment you can give us is the referral of a friend or family member.  Thank you!

How Our Business Works

Whether you are in a restaurant, a clothing store, or a a used car lot; the way you are treated as a customer has a large bearing on your positive or negative experience.  As customers, we have been served extremely well at times....and very poorly in other instances.  We understand and appreciate great customer service and take tremendous pride in providing the best customer service in our industry!  

How Our Business Works

Many realtors spend the majority of their time prospecting for clients.  They spend time cold calling, knocking on doors, or sitting in the office waiting for the phone to ring or someone to walk in and ask about a home they saw in the newspaper.

We are not big fans of harassing random people over the phone, and we are far too impatient to sit in the office and wait.  Instead, we have modeled our business around concentrating 100% on customer service.  Sounds great, right?  But how can we afford to not be out tracking down our next clients?  The way we are able to do this is through referrals. 

Our family and friends, as well as past and present clients have been very good at providing us with a steady stream of referrals of their family and friends with real estate needs.  These referrals allow us to cut out the prospecting and concentrate on representing our clients the best way we can before, during, and after the purchase or sale of their home.

We ask that if you know anyone looking to by or sell a home who would enjoy the level of service we provide, that you pass along our information.  We take pride in representing friends and family members of our clients and treasure the trust placed in us to represent them well.

The strongest compliment you can give us is the referral of someone with real estate needs.  We are never too busy for your referrals!

Activity has been very busy across the board.  While this is typical during our spring months, there seems to be a buzz around the market that is indicating something bigger than our typical spring. 

While our inventory and absorption rates had little change from last month, our pending home sales jumped from 109 in March to 126 in April.  A few other numbers worth noting are our average list & sold price and average days on market compared to this time last year.  Our average list price is up nearly $10,000 and sits at $230,647.  Our average sold price is also up just over $10,000 at $209,577.  The average days on market has dropped from 145 days last year to our current number of 134 days.

When you have questions regarding this report or real estate in general, don't hesitate to call on us.  We are always happy to help.  As always, we are never too busy for any of your referrals.  Have a great day!

New Construction Homes

Over the past 5 or 6 years there have been new construction homes popping up all over Gillette.  During the last boom from 2005-2008 there were so many builders flocking to town that it was nearly impossible to keep track of all of them.  While the new construction pace has slightly slowed and many of the fly by night builders have since left town, there continues to be lots of new homes being constructed every month. Gillette WY Real Estate

New construction is a great option for many people in Gillette.  There are some great products being offered in many different price ranges.  Many builders have homes that are currently under construction and you can still pick out many of the finishes (paint colors, cabinets, flooring, etc.).  Some builders will allow you to alter their floor plans or will work with you in designing a floor plan from scratch that will best fit your lifestyle.

We have a great deal of experience working with builders here and have formed good working relationships with many of the best.  We have also had some experiences with builders in our area that should be avoided at all costs.  We will never push a client toward a particular builder.  We pride ourselves on our process of helping our clients choose the best builder for them.

We begin by sharing our past experiences with our clients and suggesting some builders they may be interested in working with.  We go together and tour the builders homes that are either under construction or are finished and staged.  After you have seen the actual products we will decide what builders you want to talk to face to face to see who may be the best fit for you.  After you have selected a builder we will work to make sure everything is in order before you ever sign a contract. 

Having representation you can trust is essential when building a home.  We enjoy giving people the comfort and peace of mind to know that they will be well taken care of throughout the entire construction process.  We will help you find a good lot in a neighborhood that fits your needs and lifestyle.  We can aid you in design choices from cabinets and paint to bedroom sizes and landscaping, all while remembering the ever important resale value. 

Whether it is new construction or an existing home, buying a home is the largest investment of your life.  Allow us to assist you in any way we can to ensure that you are making the right choices for the present and the future! Contact us when you have questions, we are always glad to help!

There are a lot of real estate agents out there to choose from.  So what makes Lexi & Jordan Ostlund of RE/MAX Professionals stand out above the crowd?  Customer care, knowledge, experience, & commitment.

Customer care - Customer service is the most important part of our business.  Our mission is to provide every client a level of personal and professional service that gives them eager confidence to refer their friends, family members, and associates with real estate needs.  This level of service can only be provided with outstanding communication.  We communicate with our clients before, during, and after the transaction to ensure there are up to date and comfortable at every point.  When everyone involved is on the same page there is a much greater chance for a successful and smooth transaction.

Knowledge - We know the market in our area and we study market trends to supply our clients with up to date and useful information.  We produce a monthly report that breaks down the market into specific price points of what has happened in the past as well as where we feel the market is pointing in the future.  This helps buyers and sellers make informed decisions.  Lexi has earned the prestigious Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) designation and Jordan holds a Masters degree in business.  This gives us a well rounded base that helps us to see many angles when helping our clients buy and sell their homes.

Experience - We have been in this business long enough to see the ups and downs.  We have seen many situations and have been trained in dealing with many different types of negotiations.  We have experience in all price ranges and have represented clients from the first time home buyer, to the empty nester looking to down size, to seasoned investors.  We work hard to help sellers get their homes sold and to help buyers find a great home in their price point.  We are involved in the community and have built a positive reputation in the community among our peers.

Commitment - We are committed to Gillette and to best serving the needs of our customers.  There are many agents out there who are working part time at real estate.  They spend all of their time prospecting for their next client.  We are committed to serving our clients and achieving 100% satisfaction.  This will result in our clients recommending our services to their family and friends.  This gives us a constant flow of business and allows us to concentrate on our clients rather than having to prospect for new business.

Gillette WY Real Estate Market

Gillette WY Real Estate Market

It is hard to believe we are already half way through June.  However, we are enjoying the busy spring and a very active real estate market!

Attached you will find our June real state market update.  There are a few things we would like to direct your attention to this month.  First, is the absorption rate.  The overall rate is sitting at 5.5 months which is very little change from our May update.  This shows a balanced overall market.  You will also notice we have seen an increase in activity in the higher end homes.  There are now 15 homes under contract over $300,000. 12 of those are over $350,000 and 5 are over $450,000.  This is a good sign as there have only seen 29 homes over $300,000 close in the past 6 months.  

It is also worth noting that our average days on market has dropped from 153 in May to 146 days in June.  Days on market tells us what has happened in the past while the absorption rate is a forecast of the future market.

We hope this finds you well as we near the beginning of summer.  If you have questions or would like additional information please don't hesitate to contact us.  Feel free to forward this report along to anyone who may find it useful.  Also, if you know someone who may be looking to buy or sell a home we would love to help.  We are never too busy for your referrals!

Gillette WY Foreclosures

Gillette WY Foreclosures

We get a lot of calls and questions in our office about foreclosures.  People are wanting to take advantage of the great deals that the elevated number of foreclosures can produce.  We thought we would take a moment to share a few thoughts on foreclosures here in Gillette WY.

What is a foreclosure?

When a homeowner fails to keep up with payments on a property a bank can choose to force the sale of the home in order to attempt to recover some or all of the equity in the property.  This is a legal process that can be a long and arduous endeavor for all parties involved.

The truth about foreclosures in Gillette...

While  much of the rest of the country has struggled through the toughest real estate market they have ever seen over the past 4 years, Gillette's real estate market continues to remain strong.  This is not to say that we didn't experience an adjustment in our market, because we absolutely did.  However, the severity was just a fraction of what many markets were coping with.  

We have not had an outrageous number of foreclosures that have hit the market over the last several years.  However, the numbers have been elevated compared to what we have experienced in the past. The majority of the foreclosures we have seen have been homes under $150,000.  

Many foreclosed properties that we have seen are in pretty rough shape.  Sometimes homeowners have abandoned or vandalized the property.  We've even seen extreme cases where the homes have had Gillette Homes For Salethe appliances stolen, holes punched through the drywall, and cabinets severely damaged or missing.  If the home was left in good condition by the homeowner, there may still be some underlying issues.  Once a home is turned over to the bank, it is completely shut down.  The water is turned off, the heat/ air conditioning is turned off, and the home is essentially winterized.  Depending on how thorough this process is done, the deferred maintenance can lead to some severe issues down the road. 

We don't mean to be all doom and gloom when it comes to foreclosures.  There have been some buyers and investors who have gotten some great deals buying foreclosures over the past few years.  Sometimes that screaming deal comes along and it makes perfect sense to buy a foreclosure.  However, in our experience those deals have been few and far between.  

Foreclosures currently make up less than 10% of the Gillette Real Estate market.  This is not a large number.  We are always happy to show someone a foreclosed property, but we encourage everyone to keep an open mind.  We are in a very stable real estate market with great homes in every price point.  Couple that with record low interest rates and we would hate for someone to miss out on a great home because they were only interested in foreclosures.  

If you have questions regarding foreclosures or any other homes in Gillette and the surrounding areas, please feel free to contact us.  Follow the links below to find everything you need regarding buying or selling a home.  Have a great day!

Legacy Ridge Gillette WY

Legacy Ridge Gillette WY

The long awaited and much anticipated arrival of the Legacy Ridge single family lots is just around the corner!  Lots are projected to be available and ready to build on by Fall of 2012.  After some reorganizing and restructuring of ownership, as well as a reworked plat map, these prime lots will be the hottest property in Gillette.  Contact us about customizing a home for you!

Why Legacy?

Location, Location, Location!  The Legacy Ridge subdivision is located directly in the geographical center of Gillette.  This area has seen tons of development over the past 6 years and doesn't show any signs of slowing down.  The main attraction of this area is the new $56 million Campbell County Recreation Center.  Along with the rec center is the brand new Buffalo Ridge elementary school which is set to open in the fall of 2012, CCHS South Campus which will likely be converted into a 3rd jr high in the next 5 years, Gillette college, the site for construction of a 2nd high school in the near future, and lots of space for commercial development.  All of this is connected by a web of sidewalks, bike paths, and walking trails. 

Legacy Homes

We can help you pick the perfect home!

We have a great working relationship with the builders who will be constructing homes in Legacy Ridge. We have dealt with a large amount of new construction over the past few years and have the knowledge and persistence to make sure our clients get the most for their money.  We have recommendations for certain builders have worked well for our clients in the past, as well as strong cautions for the builders that have a less than stellar track record.

We are willing to take as much time as necessary to make sure you get the right home for you by looking at all angles.  We will show you different homes the builder has completed in the past as well as provide you with feedback from each builders past clients.  We will show you different floor plans and help you customize each one to fit your particular needs.  All the while keeping in mind the ever-important resale value!

In our experience we have learned what questions to ask, what advice to give, and what warning signs to watch for, before, during, and after completion of construction.  We will make sure you are comfortable with all aspects of the home including design, materials, and budget before we ever get a signature on a contract.

The construction process can be a fun and exciting experience.  As long as you have a quality builder and a representative looking out for your best interest, there is no reason you shouldn’t enjoy watching your home take shape!

The Need For Legacy

Contact us to pick out a lot!

The bottom line is Gillette is running out of residential lots for new construction homes.  RC Ranch has very few remaining lots available, Remington Estates and Pronghorn Ranch are being built out very quickly.  New construction homes ranging from 200k - 300k are the most popular product in Gillette.  Buyers can get a very quality home that fits their specific needs, style, and budget.  There are some upper end areas with available lots but when you spend 75k - 100k on a lot, you aren't left with much of a budget for your home!

The Villas at Legacy Ridge

Contact us today for a showing!

The Villas at Legacy Ridge are a unique option for those looking for an affordable, elegant, maintenance free home.  With two floor plans to choose from (ranch style or 2 story), these homes boast hardwood floors, granite counter tops, finished 2 car garage, all window coverings, and an HOA to oversee lawn care.  There are Villas currently completed and ready to show!

Gillette WY Real Estate Market

Gillette WY Real Estate Market

Real estate is a very important economic indicator.  In a time where we are hearing some rumors of uncertainty in the energy sector, we are happy to report another month of strong numbers in the market.  The number of homes available changed only slightly to 272 while pending home sales as of today sits at 104.  We have seen pending sales up as high as 116 at different times this month.  Gillette is a resilient community that thrives when much of the rest of the country struggles.  Based on these numbers and the exciting residential and commercial development taking place in our community,  we are of the opinion that Gillette’s near and distant future are very bright! 

Please feel free to pass this update along to anyone who may find it useful.  As always, contact us when you have questions.  We always enjoy talking real estate!

New Construction Homes in Gillette WY

Over the past 5 or 6 years there have been new construction homes popping up all over Gillette.  During the last boom from 2005-2008 there were so many builders flocking to town that it was nearly impossible to keep track of all of them.  While the new construction pace has slightly slowed and many of the fly by night builders have since left town, there continues to be lots of new homes being constructed every month. Gillette WY Real Estate

New construction is a great option for many people in Gillette.  There are some great products being offered in many different price ranges.  Many builders have homes that are currently under construction and you can still pick out many of the finishes (paint colors, cabinets, flooring, etc.).  Some builders will allow you to alter their floor plans or will work with you in designing a floor plan from scratch that will best fit your lifestyle.

We have a great deal of experience working with builders here and have formed good working relationships with many of the best.  We have also had some experiences with builders in our area that should be avoided at all costs.  We will never push a client toward a particular builder.  We pride ourselves on our process of helping our clients choose the best builder for them.

We begin by sharing our past experiences with our clients and suggesting some builders they may be interested in working with.  We go together and tour the builders homes that are either under construction or are finished and staged.  After you have seen the actual products we will decide what builders you want to talk to face to face to see who may be the best fit for you.  After you have selected a builder we will work to make sure everything is in order before you ever sign a contract. 

Having representation you can trust is essential when building a home.  We enjoy giving people the comfort and peace of mind to know that they will be well taken care of throughout the entire construction process.  We will help you find a good lot in a neighborhood that fits your needs and lifestyle.  We can aid you in design choices from cabinets and paint to bedroom sizes and landscaping, all while remembering the ever important resale value. 

Whether it is new construction or an existing home, buying a home is the largest investment of your life.  Allow us to assist you in any way we can to ensure that you are making the right choices for the present and the future!  Contact us when you have questions, we are always glad to help!

Gillette Wyoming Real Estate Market

Gillette Wyoming Real Estate Market

A few points of interest in this month’s report are the low absorption rate and the elevated number of pending home sales.  With 276 homes on the market, there is little change in our inventory from last month.  However, the homes currently under contract jumped from 78 last month to 107 today.  Our absorption rate has dropped slightly from last month and sits at 4.7 months.  This number continues to be driven by homes under $300,000, while the upper end of the market continues to lag behind a bit. 

It seems like we never had much of a slowdown through the winter months and we are already seeing evidence of a busy spring market.  We are fortunate to live where we do and looking forward to another great year as a community!  Please don’t hesitate to contact us when you have questions or need additional information.
