Avalon and Stone Harbor Weekly Update February 22, 2024

February 22, 2024 By Bill Leahy

MARKET STATS:  The month of January 2024 saw an increase in the number of properties sold, a reduction in the number of active listings, and an increase in the median sale price.  For a detailed look at the market, see the latest Long & Foster Market Minute report here: https://marketminute.longandfoster.com/Market-Minute/NJ/Avalon-Stone-Harbor.htm

STONE HARBOR MUSEUM LOOKING FOR PHOTOS: In order to prepare two new exhibits this summer, the Stone Harbor Museum is seeking your photos!  The museum is looking for “Patriotic Summer” photos, including Memorial Day, 4th of July, and Labor Day memories, as well as “Stone Harbor Bound” photos showing photos of families in packed cars arriving on the island.  If you have photos to submit, send them to directorstoneharbormuseum@gmail.com.

BEACH SET UP GUY is back for 2024!  If you love the beach but don’t want to lug all your stuff to and from, the Beach Set Up Guy.  For a flat weekly fee Beach Set Up Guy will haul your beach chairs, umbrella, and other items to the beach each morning, and set them up.  Late in the afternoon, your items will be broken down and returned to your property.  Save yourself some hassle and check out Beach Set Up Guy at https://www.beachsetupguy.com/

DANCING FIREFIGHTERS: Four members of the Cape May Court House Fire Department donned their turnout gear—and went dancing!  The members performed a choreographed routine at the Wildwoods Dancing with Local Celebrities charity event held earlier this month.  Other groups participated at the event, which was attended by hundreds of spectators.  Over $20,000 was raised for scholarships and other local programs.

LET’S DISCUSS YOUR 2024 PLANS!  Need a getaway week at the shore?  Or do you want to make it permanent?  Either way, call or email me today and I’ll help you find the perfect place!
