I have definitely seen an up-tick in activity recently. With rates on the rise and the economy taking a slight turn for the better, I think many buyers are realizing this is as good a time as any to go ahead and make a move. I am also seeing more investors picking up bank owned properties.

Over the past two weeks 17 properties went pending. Buyers are still looking for the "steals" however, as all but four are short sales or bank owned.

The pending sales were as follows:
Under $100,000 - 3
$100,000 - $199,999 - 10
$200,000 - $299,999 - 4

ACTIVE LISTINGS: 205
PENDING SALES: 73
CLOSED SALES: 1/10/2011 - 1/23/2011


VACANT LAND
ACTIVE: 17
PENDING: 2
SOLD (1/1/2010 - 12/31/2010): 4
Gerda Street: $162,000
620 Stetson: $155,000
717 Langston Court: $61,750
1568 Eastin Avenue: $206,000

The above numbers for College Park Update come from single family homes, condos and land listed in the MLS in the 32804 zip code.
