In our last look at Cranford NJ Real Estate at the end of March, I predicted that the 2nd Quarter Sales to "exceed" the 1st quarter sales. Seasonally, this is almost always the case, but with the first time home buyer tax credit in place through April 30, combined with historically low interest rates, and favorable pricing I expected an even greater surge in market activity. As we complete the 2nd month of the quarter, it is quite apparent that the 2nd Quarter of 2010 will show a sizable spike in sales activity. In the entire 1st quarter, there were 29 closed sales in Cranford. So far in the 2nd quarter, there were 10 closed sales in April, 9 closed sales in May, and currently 43 listings under contract. This is a staggering number, as most of these properties will likely close before J... 05/26/2010

Hard to believe its already the 2nd quarter, but I am sure uncle sam didn't forget! Hope you've filed your taxes...or at least started them. ...but I digress. With the start of a new quarter comes the looking back at the last one. Cranford NJ saw 29 closed sales, and 50 homes go under contract in the first quarter. Thats about a 4.7 month's supply. Is that a seller's market??? It just might be right now. Check out the Cranford NJ Market Summary for more detailed stats, and as always, thanks for reading!   04/12/2010

Foreclosures were on the rise in Cranford at the end of 2009, but the good news is that compared to the national, state, and county average, Cranford is still experiencing less foreclosures per number of housing units. We will continue to track these numbers, and I suspect if unemployment stays near 10%, the foreclosures will increase a bit more before decreasing.

Looks like the Cranford NJ Real Estate market showed a strong recovery towards the end of 2009, which helped the closed sales to end nearly flat compared to 2008, when it looked like 2009 was going to be well below the 2008 numbers through the 2nd quarter.

"There is a green revolution coming," Congressman Tim Ryan said. "And we are going to be a part of it. We are going to shape it."It is something that Ryan has been saying for some time. Now the Mahoning Valley is trying to position itself as a leader in Ohio in green job training.    The Electrical Trades Institute has dedicated a new windmill and four solar panels at their Champion Township Facility, paid for by a grant from the Wean Foundation."The wind and solar are training modules," said Mark Catello with the I.B.E.W Local 573. "Our goal is to train 50-percent of our workers. Right now we've hit 30-percent, which we are pretty proud of. We are hoping to continue with our training with this additional grant. The state of Ohio received $4.8-million." Read mor: http://www.wytv.com/con... 01/20/2010

The government is funneling nearly $100 million into training programs for green jobs, Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis said today. The funds, part of a $500-million green workforce development initiative through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, will go to 25 projects around the country. The programs are designed to help workers find jobs -- such as hybrid and electric auto technicians, weatherization specialists, wind and energy auditors, and solar panel installers -- in growing energy-efficiency and renewable-energy industries. The money will be parceled out in Energy Training Partnership Grants ranging from $1.4 million to $5 million each. Projects in communities affected by the restructuring in the auto industry will receive $28 million. Read more: http://latimesblogs.latim... 01/11/2010

While Cranford NJ has not seen nearly the number of foreclosures as other parts of New Jersey, there has definitely been an increase since the first quarter of 2009. Even though Cranford remains one of the stronger markets in Union County, there has still been an impact of unemployment, and financial hardship which has affected more homeowners.

Cranford NJ Real Estate Market News..."What's Happening Out There?"   With all of the news media reports about the ‘national' economy, and the ‘national' real estate market, it is very difficult to decipher exactly what that means for towns like Cranford. There really is no such thing as a "national" real estate market, as people who purchase homes in a community often work in that community, or within commuting distance. This means that they earn money locally, and usually spend that money locally.  The national media often reports on national statistics, and while they can be helpful to uncover trends in the macro-economy, it is important to understand that the Real Estate market, and even the economy are highly localized, and can vary tremendously from one state to the next, or even ... 09/16/2009

 Gone are the days of calling the neighbor's daughter to babysit. At least, without her having the proper credentials. Childcare on all levels is important. When education on childcare can be obtained, it should be embraced, because it only enhances the provider's knowledge. Case in point, the Red Cross Babysitting Course offered May 16, 2009, 9:00 a.m. until 3:30 p.m., in conference rooms A & B at the Somerset Medical Center. The course is geared for youth ages 11 -15. The objective is to provide them with skill sets essential to provide safe and responsible care in the absence of parents or guardians. The training is designed to foster leadership skills, professionalism, basic care, safety, safe play and first aid. Upon completion the student will receive a certificate and an illustra... 05/04/2009

As I shared in my blog last week, the biggest factor affecting the Cranford NJ Real Estate market right now is inventory. While plenty of homes are starting to go under contract and close, we currently have 98 homes on the market, which is about double what was for sale during the peak of the market in 2005. This means that buyers have tremendous choice, and sellers who price correctly will sell if they are the best looking property in that range. There are, unfortunately, a lot of homes on the market though that have been for sale for a long time, as they are just not priced right.
