More good news last week in the real estate world: Home sales increased for a sixth consecutive month. While foreclosures are still everywhere and the economy is still sputtering, the national real estate market is finally showing signs of life. Locally, the Raleigh real estate market happens to be quite healthy and improving from last years bottom. Sales have increased locally as well. I’ll have more information and more details on some other interesting stats later this week. For now, I wanted to post about a new listing I took last week.

This North Raleigh townhome is listed at $139,900. It is located in an outstanding spot in North Raleigh, less than a mile from the Spring Forest/Falls of Neuse intersection. It would be a great starter home for a young couple looking to take advantage of the $8000 tax credit. It would also make a good long term investment for someone who wants a low maintenance property in an appreciating location. The home has 2 large bedrooms, a formal dining room, a spacious living room that overlooks a wooded backyard, and an open kitchen large enough for a breakfast area. The home has had just one owner and is in outstanding condition. Take a look at my featured listings page for more pictures. The address is 6419 Meadowview Drive in Raleigh.
