Avalon and Stone Harbor Weekly Update January 4, 2024

January 3, 2024 By Bill Leahy

HAPPY NEW YEAR!  Wishing you and your family a healthy, happy, and prosperous 2024!  Avalon helped kick start New Year’s Eve celebrations on Seven Mile Island with fireworks over the beach.  What a great way to ring in the New Year!
AVALON 7TH GRADER CHARLOTTE KOSMIN was the winner of the 2024 Avalon beach tag contest.  Charlotte’s design will adorn Avalon’s 2024 beach tags.  Mayor John McCorristin presented Charlotte a plaque, a canvas replica of her work, and the very first 2024 Avalon beach tag with serial number 000001.  Nice work, Charlotte!
INTEREST RATES have decreased about a point over the past several weeks, after several months of climbing. Currently, both jumbo and conventional 30-year fixed rates are hovering around 6.5%, down from nearly 8% a short while ago.
DURING 2023, 195 FAMILIES purchased a shore property in our local market.  Some are getaway condos, some are huge beachfront homes, some are rental properties.  But they’ve all achieved their goal of ownership at the shore!  What about you?  Is 2024 your year?  Let’s discuss the market, your goals, and your timeframe—and then let’s make your goal of ownership at the shore happen!  Call or email me today!
