Idyllwild Lilac Festival Brings in Spring Home Shoppers

Thursday, May 28th, 2015


Idyllwild, CA (PRWEB) May 09, 2015

Brad Schmett, Broker Associate with Luxury Homes by Keller Williams today announced that the May Lilac Festival in the nearby Idyllwild Mountains will be a big draw for Spring luxury home shoppers who enjoy this colorful season and the mountain events within an easy drive from Palm Springs.

Many Valley residents own second homes in the charming mountain community less than an hour from Palm Springs and many Idyllwild residents are also second home owners in the Coachella Valley. Idyllwild is considered an extension of the Palm Springs area as it is the closet mountain community and is located at the top of the Palm Springs Tramway.

Schmett observed that, Idyllwild is our favorite cool weather getaway here in La Quinta and Palm Springs. The Lilac Festival is just one of the special signature events that add to the desirability of owning a home in Coachella Valley. For a total change of scenery and climate, you have less than an hour to drive to one of the most rustic and cozy mountain towns in Southern California. When the lilacs are in bloom during May everyone takes advantage of the beauty and heads up the hill. We truly have the best of both worlds.

The 2015 Idyllwild Lilac Festival will have several special tours on May 1, 2 and 3 along with a Tea and poetry readings. Idyllwild is an easy drive from Palm Desert, Banning or Hemet. The Palm Springs Tramway also goes to the top of the mountain near Idyllwild several times daily. Hiking, picnicking and plenty of great shopping and restaurants make this a popular destination for Coachella Valley desert dwellers all year round.

Spring 2013 Trends Provide Optimism for Winter Park, Colorado Real Estate Sales

Thursday, March 14th, 2013


Winter Park, CO (PRWEB) March 10, 2013

After a much improved 2012 that saw residential real estate sales in the Winter Park area increase notably, spring 2013 could set up to be a prime opportunity for buyers looking to find high value in a primary or secondary home in this Historic Colorado resort town.

After publishing the 2012 Annual Market Report in January, Julie White with Real Estate of Winter Park commented, We are seeing some encouraging trends in the Grand County area. The number of residential sales are up in all areas, with the average price slightly up. This seems to be an indicator of increasing confidence encouraging buyers to take advantage early in a strengthening market.

The positive trends are continuing in 2013, with sales volume, average sales price, and sales-price-to-list-price percentage all increasing slightly year to date. Jenene Johnson, who early this year joined the Real Estate of Winter Park team as a broker/owner with 18 years of experience, recently confirmed that: At this point [in 2013], the real estate market in the Winter Park Area is moving a long at nice pace. Our inventory in most categories is decreasing as we head into what were hoping to see as a very busy summer selling season.

With a decreasing inventory, a rising trend in sales price, and increasing buyer confidence, the opportunity seekers will have their eyes on Winter Park this year. Colorado remains strong as a preferred location with higher than average home value.

The team at Real Estate of Winter Park has been serving Grand County, Colorado real estate buyers and sellers since 2008. Their dedication to working as a team to provide buyers and sellers with the highest level of customer service, and in-depth knowledge of the Winter Park area real estate market, led the group to over $ 83 million in sales in 2012, number one in Grand County. RE Winter Park is proud of their active involvement in the community, supporting over two dozen local organizations and charities.
