Falmouth Waterfront Property - Falmouth MA Waterfront Real Estate  The waterfront real estate market in Falmouth MA is strong.  One reason is that there is that Falmouth has more waterfront than any other town in the country. With beaches, oceans, marshes, rivers, lakes, and ponds, Falmouth offers up boating and beaching, swimming and sunbathing, like no other place on Cape Cod.   The comparatively low coast of ocean front property in Falmouth is catching the eye of many independently successful families. A comfortable waterfront property in Falmouth can be found for under $3,000,000. With Jet Blue's daily summer flights to and from HYA (Hyannis - Mid Cape airport) the time to get to Falmouth can be shorter than driving 105 miles from Manhattan to the Hamptons.   Bounded on 2 sides by o...

Cape Cod Waterfront Homes. Barnstable County Waterfront Real Estate.    The waterfront real estate market on Cape Cod is alive and active. Of course waterfront on Cape Cod can mean many different things. Ocean front property does not always mean beach front property. Waterfront real estate does not always mean ocean front real estate. Waterfront on Cape Cod can mean ocean front, beach front, lake front, river front, marsh front, etc. An experienced professional is worth a consult for identifying the differences between deep water and beach front real estate, and/or comparing that to available water view property.   Cape Cod luxury real estate owners have said that for a certain number of weeks each year, Cape Cod has the best weather in the world.  Thus, people who own property all over...

Barnstable County real estate activity. How Many homes sold? What is the market like?    When a real estate professional gets a question like one of those above, we need more information to correctly answer. Pros get caught in the purgatory of question-land where we have to decide if the question is just a friendly ice-breaker, or actually a serious question.    If it is serious, we all know, location is important. So is the type of property, and so is the condition. So, maybe we need to know the town and the neighborhood. Then we'll know what beaches, businesses, and amenities are available to the property and owner.  Of course that means a serious social conversation would then start like, "So how's the market for a ten year old SFD, 3 br, 2 ba, ranch, with no garage, within 1/2 mile ...

Real Estate Data Is Only As Good As The Source AND The Interpreter   The cleanest data is found in the actual MLS.  Any reliance on a data provider that is not the actual MLS may cause mistaken conclusions. Correct data in any reporting process is important. It is especially important when looking at reports that are generated by data sources that have filtered it themselves, or that received filtered data.   How can I say this? Because I look at the cleanest data - the MLS data - and I see flaws in that data all the time. That MLS data is not always correctly entered.  So if that data is being acquired by a non-MLS user and then filtered and compiled further, it will be even more skewed and corrupt when it is published for some other user down the line.   The problem with basing real e...

Falmouth MA Real Estate Activity   Does there seem to be more activity this year than last year in Falmouth MA? The answer can be found in the data that comes from the Cape And Islands MLS. The graph below indicates a pretty steady market here in Falmouth - for listings and sales.   Of course price points will make a difference in what the graph looks like.  This graph is specifically for Single Family properties that are between $350,000 and $550,000. That price range seems to have a lot of customers who would like to buy. The problem is that the listings in that range do not meet the interests of the buyers in that range.   Maybe the properties need too much work.  Maybe they are not close enough to the beaches.  Maybe buyers just haven't wanted to spend yet.  Whatever the answer or r...
