"New home sales rise"

According to the NY Times new home sales rose 28.9% in Jan of 2013.  This makes January the best sales month in a very long time.  Due to lack of inventory, resale homes are only rising slightly or staying the same.

The picture is living room view of a new listing we have in Windrush.  The unit is a SE corner with wrap around balcony, on these cold days you can slip around to the south side balcony and be toasty.  Condo is a 3 bedroom 2 bath with a very large living dining area.  Ready to move right in as it comes fully furnished except for some personal items and the wall mounted TV in living room.  Virtual tour is below, please take a look.

The Diplomat has had so many sales in the past year that the price is pretty much set.  A new fully furnished unit is on the market for $129,900, it will sell but it hasn't gone as quickly as the others.  The oceanfront unit listed at $219,900 in under contract and should close shortly.

I think the buy of the day is a side unit in Windrush on the 3rd floor with good northern views.  2 bedroom 2 bath unit priced at $219,000.

We still have 2 nice units on the side in Windward East 1 back from oceanfront.  One of these is unit 208, this unit shows great and updated, priced at $239,000.  The other is unit 408 with good views to the south but needs updating, priced at $235,000.

Stay warm my friends!
