The gorgeous kitchen has custom Dade County pine cabinets and a built in breakfast area.The spacious master bedroom has a sitting area en-suite, plus generous storage and closets.

A home buyer on Trulia complained he had just been outbid on two houses over asking price! He asked, is it normal in this market to get multiple offers on houses?

"In fact, I just made another offer on a third house and now it has "another bidder." That is exactly what happened the other two times. The common denominator is that they were all Watson listings. What's going on? Is the market back. This house has been up for 2 weeks. The past houses were up for 170 days and 4 days when I made my offer, only to find out that there was 'another offer'."

It’s happening in Key West, Florida. Two of Marquis Properties’ listings in the last 60 days have received multiple offers; an indication that the market is stabilizing and, perhaps, even recovering.

Broker Rudy Molinet responded directly:

“Yes, we are receiving multiple offers on certain properties in Key West. It has happened on two of our listings in the past 2 months. This happens when listings are in good locations and priced properly. It also happens on bank owned properties since they tend to be very well priced. The existence of multiple offers in Key West is evidence that the real estate market in Key West is stabilizing and in some cases recovering.”

In California, it’s happening in all price ranges, says Pasadena agent, Pete Whan. Whan suggests there are at least two factors that contribute. Recent NAR (National Association of Realtors) data says home owners now live in their homes an average of 9 years, up from an average of 7 years. That reduces inventory.

“The second reason,” Whan says, “is low interest rates which is driving demand."

Is this happening in your market?

Truman's Little White House On Video

2010-07-27T09:29:00.000-07:00

Anyone in love with Key West's beautiful historic homes has probably visited the Little White House. But if you aren't lucky enough to have traveled to Key West, this video will give you an inside look at Harry Truman's beloved retreat.

The Little White House was built in 1890 on the waterfront as a duplex to house the base commander and paymaster - and served in the Spanish American war as command headquarters. The house is no longer waterfront, though as the harbor was dredged in 1909 to accommodate the Navy’s larger fleet. In 1911 it was converted to a single family dwelling.

In addition to its most famous resident, Harry S Truman, it was a home for
Scientist Edward Hayden, who served as base commander from 1912 to 1915 and was involved in hurricane research. Later, inventor Thomas Edison resided in the historic home for six months in 1981 while developing new weapons for the war effort.

More on the history of the Little White House.

Key West Property For Sale- 510 Frances Street- A Gorgeous Piece of Key West Real Estate

2009-02-19T16:02:00.000-08:00

Once in a while you come across a home so beautiful, in such a great location, that it will take your breath away.

Such is the experience you will have when you see this gorgeous piece of

Key West Real Estate located at 510 Frances Street in Old Town Key West. I am a bit biased as my partner Harry Hoehn and I own this home and did a full renovation. We are selling because we are starting a new project just one block away. This is what we do. We restore historic homes, live in them so we make sure it is done right. Our friends call us "Serial Renovators".

In 2004 we purchased the property which was a duplex at the time. The home had "great bones" but really needed vision to see what the potential could be. The upstairs had been divided into an apartment and the downstairs was another apartment. The electric wiring was really scary and the plumbing so old that the sewer line was made out of clay! Wow.
So Harry and I got to work and did what we love to do--renovate and restore historic homes. We did a complete renovation, electric, plumbing, AC, roof, foundation piers, kitchen, baths, pool, jacuzzi, floors, walls, insulation, landscaping ,brick pavers, parking...you name it, we did it
We had a professional photographer record this
