As we look forward to the annual Memorial Day Weekend here in Lake Tahoe, it's clear that summer is just around the corner. This weekend traditionally marks the start of the season, and the signs are all around us: chickadees chirping, the warm sun rising over the East Shore, and the fresh scent of pine trees in the air. Early morning walks along Lakeshore reveal bustling yard cleanups, American flags being raised, flowerpots being filled, and vibrant outdoor furniture making its appearance.
This week, the Incline Village and Crystal Bay real estate market experienced a surge in activity, reflecting a palpable increase in momentum. With 17 new listings, 3 pending sales, 2 price adjustments, and 2 successful closings, it's evident that we are in the full swing of listing season. Properties in desirable neighborhoods that are priced well are receiving multiple offers, often over the asking price, with approximately 50% of accepted offers being all-cash deals. The strong stock market is prompting many to cash out and invest in Lake Tahoe real estate.
A standout new listing already pending is 689 Mount Watson Ct. This small cul-de-sac in the Lakeview subdivision boasts views of Burnt Cedar Beach and a beautiful yard. Another notable listing, 640 Lakeshore Blvd., is back on the market with a $1,000,000 price reduction. As one of the few smaller homes remaining on Lakeshore, it is expected to sell quickly. Additionally, 165 Mayhew Cir. stands out with its beautiful architecture, well-thought-out floor plan, and secluded lot surrounded by a stream and Nevada conservation land. This may be the most private lot in Mill Creek. A "tear down" in Mill Creek has also gone under contract with multiple offers in the $2.9M range.
This week also marks the start of Music on the Beach, presented by Incline Spirits & Cigars, and I’m excited to see all your beautiful faces after a snow-filled spring. Summers in Lake Tahoe are wonderful but short, so make sure to soak up every minute of it.
