Lake Tahoe real estate market news

PREP IT, PRICE IT and GRAB THE MARKET

The appreciation rate for Lake Tahoe real estate has stabilized to a more moderate rate from past years and is currently being driven by limited supply. If you are considering selling your home soon; take advantage of the season by prepping the interior through de-cluttering, cleaning, painting where necessary and look at your floors to be cleaned or replaced. These are some very cost-effective applications which will show your home in the most favorable of conditions. It also budgets your time for the Spring yard work that will lend curb appeal.

Spring into Daylight Saving Time Sunday

With the season we've had in the Sierra, who wouldn't want an extra hour of sunshine to beat those end-of-winter blues? (Even if we might have to wait for sunshine and no snow for a few days)

Don’t forget to set any clocks that aren’t on a smart device ahead one hour before heading to bed Saturday night, and, if you're like me, it will take weeks to pull out the instructions on changing the clock in our cars and on the microwaves.
