West Chester Ohio

Weekly Greater Cincinnati Real Estate Buzz

Getting a jump on Valentine’s Day red and looking at 2 important numbers this week- days on market and # of new listings versus # absorbed (sold pending)..or how fast is inventory selling.

Lots of sellers want to protect themselves by shortening the listing contract from 6 months to r 90 or120 days but as you can see many areas have a very high number of “days on market”.

Think about giving your agent enough time to market and sell your property!

Panerathon-Help Run Hunger Right Out of Cincinnati!

Panerathon

Panera @ Union Centre is sponsoring a great event on September 10th.

A chance to visit with our neighbors and raise money to benefit Children’s Hunger Alliance. It’s the 4th annual Panerathon for the Children’s Hunger Alliance.  It’s a win/win opportunity to “run off”  some of the french toast bagels and raise money for a great cause.

Let’s face it in Ohio and greater Cincinnati, today’s economy is hitting lots of people – and sometimes “the kids” are not always getting enough food.  Basic programs, like the ones sponsored by the Children’s Hunger Alliance, provide food where it’is needed most.

The event kicks off at 8:30am Saturday morning with events for both adults and kids.  The 5k route loops around the Streets of West Chester and the local area.  This year dogs are welcome to join the run.  Of course everybody needs a t-shirt and prizes and Panera promises shirts and gift bags to all participants and as you cross the finish line…fresh bagels, pastries, and sandwiches will be available.

This year the goal of the Panerathon is to have at least 500 participants up from 253 last year.  You can register ahead of the event or make a donation.

Let’s pull together to help our neighbors and have some fun!

New Construction Near The Streets of West Chester

Townhomes at Streets of West Chester

One small sign that the local greater Cincinnati real estate market is coming back to life is when new construction start to appear in your neighborhood.  We’re lucky because the once anticipated residential area about the Streets of West Chester” is under construction…and 2 units have already sold.

Location of the Villages at the Streets of West ChesterLocated at the “far side” of the Streets of West Chester, the Ryan Townhouses can be accessed from Union Centre Road or Allen Road.  The 3 story buildings have 6 units per building (Wexford Model)when construction is completed there will be 60 townhomes in the development.  And since this area of West Chester has office buildings housing lots of employees for General Electric and P&G -(to name a few) the units start at $170,000 which should be attractive to workers wanting to reduce their commuting time.

As you can see from the Google earth map – owners will have a walk (or quick drive) over to movie theaters, food and shopping without ever hitting a main road.

New construction sprouting up is a good sign and the fact that 2 units are sold before the model is open is a better sign.
