Mountain Closings Down for June 2013!

Saturday, July 13, 2013
by Liz Warren

It came as a complete surprise when June 2013 sales info came out this week. Only five properties went to closing for the month according to RMLS statistics. July numbers will certainly make up for the slow down with 25 sales currently pending. The jump in interest rates slowed applications for mortgages according to lenders but I wouldn't exactly say that is reflected in our current pending sales information. We expect the surge in inventory to keep prices very affordable as many second home sellers have been waiting for an improving market.

Government Camp: Little Log Cabin New on Market

Saturday, July 6, 2013
by Liz Warren

It's an often sought price range for Government Camp and this little log cabin is a gem that sits off of Camp Creek Trail and boarders the Mt. Hood National Forest. Originally built in the 1930's it is a short distance from downtown Govy yet a nice location to getaway from the buzz of downtown. Family owned for a log time too. Metal roof for easy snow load off the roof too. Just the basics at the cabin with a living room, kitchen, bedroom on the main level and a ladder to get upstairs to a double loft. Warm your toes in front of the fireplace. Pull up a log stool for the pancakes coming off the stove. Sit on your deck and enjoy the trickling river outside. Pick huckleberries in the Mt. Hood National Forest out your back door.

Offered at $235.000. Government Camp Log Cabin
