Happy New Year Friend,

Big plans for 2013 to bring you
the best level of service possible.  In
addition to the weekly summary you
currently receive, there will be a monthly
summary that shows all listing and
sales activity on a map, so you can
better visualize what is happening.

I'm also going to produce an annual
report to put the events of 2012 in
perspective, and figure out what we
can expect in 2013.

So stay tuned, there will be a lot of
information coming your way.  I will
also be available to answer questions
and tour homes.  If there's anything
you want, or any suggestions you
have, please reply to this email or
call me at (480) 442-7325.

The Rolling Stones said you can't
always get what you want.  I'm going
to try to prove them wrong and get
you exactly what you want.

But I can only do that if you tell me.
Please click here and take 2 minutes
to tell me about what you want, and
I will leave no stone unturned.

In this fast moving market, your best
bet may be a home that never hits
the MLS.  If it does hit the MLS, then
you'll want to have someone get on
it quickly because the good ones
are moving very quickly indeed.

Closings Last Week
10 homes closed in the last week, for
a total sales volume of $9.7 million.  The
average price per square foot was $240,
down from $289 the prior week, and this
decrease was reflective of the fact that
most of the homes sold were older; the
average year of construction was 1976.
Evidently, people are snapping up the
old homes for remodels as the turn-key
homes become more expensive.  

New Listings This Week
We have 14 new listings this week ranging
from $155k (it's very very small and in need
of quite a bit of TLC) to almost $9 million. 

Here are the noteworthy picks for quality
