One thing for certain in the Brentwood TN Real Estate Market, is that Nothing is for certain! Wow did that make sense???

I just posted how there were no closings in Raintree Forest for the first half of last year, but there were several from July to December. Just the contrary in Chestnut Springs. There were 3 closings the first quarter of 2008 and 4 for the second. Then none after that.

2009 has started off promising. There has been one closing and there is currently one pending. There are 6 active listings which is a good number for this time of year.

The average sales price of the  closings last spring was $317,166. The first closing sold at $310,000 and the pending is listed at $309,900. The average price of the active listings is $314,300. Right in line with the closed transaction and the pending sale.

Sellers that price their homes to sell and follow the simple rules of  “Dressing your house to Sell” will find that they attract Buyers and are able to sell their houses and move on to their next homes!
