South Lake Tahoe Real Estate Market Update, May 28- June 3

The South Tahoe real estate market appears to be following its traditional “relaxed” activity for the period between the middle of May to the middle of June. The good news is that we can actually take a bit of time away from the computer and get out to enjoy the Tahoe beauty. Many thanks to my good friend Dewitt Jones for capturing a moment of pure fun. Dewitt is always reminding us to celebrate what’s right with the world and I must admit, golfing in a slight drizzle and somewhat chilly temperatures in Tahoe, is right up there at the top of the list. Now, back to work.

According to the South Lake Tahoe Association of Realtors’ multiple listing services, there were 20 NEW (or back on the market) listings this past week , up 2 from the previous week’s 18.  The lowest priced new listing is $235,000 for 3311 Bruce, a 2 bedroom, 1 bath with 1962 square feet located in the Bijou neighborhood.

There were only 9 new PENDING sales, down from the previous week’s 15.  Perhaps all of our recent snowstorms have dampened the spirits of spring visitors. The lowest asking price for the new pending sales is $150,000 for 1008 Eagle, a 3 bedroom a bank-owned fixer (an understatement) with 1922 square feet. Good job Pinnacle.
