Great time to be a buyer! Seller's are becoming conditioned to the fact that there are a lot of choices for buyers in the current market so prices are being adjusted. I don't see prices decreasing dramatically as homes are still moving so it is time to stop waiting and buy. Out of state buyers are still coming in and our area is growing so the market will not stay this way for too much longer is my guess. Should start turning the first of the year.

1500 fellow bloggers replied and below are their responses. My choice was hardwood flooring under carpet. Here in NW Montana, views, great neighborhoods and great schools are for the most part the norm, so had to choose something else! Mud rooms were a close 2nd in my mind for where I live, place...

Hops Bar and Grill: great burgers in Kalispell. They have 100 craft beers to choose from and a terrific wine list. They no longer take reservations, so we naively showed up last Friday night at 5:20pm, expecting to walk in and get a table. Wrong! We put our name on a list and walked around town f...

I posted on Facebook last week that I was calling it quits on the ski season and moving on to gardening and horse riding. A friend says that she hates the "in between time". I totally got it. Here in NW MT, all accept plowed piles of snow are gone, leaving wet and mud in it's place. At night it f...

Everyone in the Flathead Valley knows, we are a big draw for Canadian skiers. Canadians come down here year round for a variety of reasons. Last week we had dinner at the Tupelo Grill in Whitefish. We were surrounded by fun loving Canadians. They kept us alive financially during the recession and...

I googled it and this link leads you to what I found. http://onassignment.nationalgeographic.com/2014/02/19/photo-walk-whitefish-montana/ In the meantime, after ...

It was a warmish, sunny day so we drove up to "the Park" yesterday. Stopped at Montana Coffee Traders in Columbia Falls on the way. It was Cabin Fever Days in Martin City - just west of the park so saw some action in that "town". We drove along Lake McDonald observing the beauty that was snow cov...

Last weekend we stopped at Montana Coffee Traders for an Americano and headed to Whitefish for the Skijoring World Championship. We had not attended this event for a few years and were amazed at how it has grown! 3000 spectators attended on Saturday to watch skiers and snowboarders being pulled b...

My blogging community has spoken: see the graphic below. My personal input was "sellers who insist on being around for showings". If the seller is present the buyer is not comfortable looking thoroughly at the house and hurries through the house. The seller might mis-represent their own property ...

Well, our family flew in for a week stay and it was a busy one with 2-2 year old grandsons running - literally - around the house. Fun! The one grandson lives in WA so we don't see him too often but the boys have so much fun together. Different in every way. One loved to be in the snow - of cours...
