The numbers are looking good in Lebanon with 17 units sold, which is an increase from last year’s 14. The average price has increased to $254,382 up from $183,259 last year, a jump of 38.81%!  The average number of days on the market has increased to 195, up from 150.

Condo sales in Hanover, unfortunately, have been less promising and have actually seen a substantial dip in 2010.  So far there have only been 8 units sold, down from 21 last year.  The average price has stayed constant at about $310,000.  The average number of days on the market is also up to 268, up from 199 last year.

Carol and I recently met with Kevin and Shannon Purcell who are the developers behind Natures Walk condominiums in Lebanon.   They have sold 50 % of the project thus far and are optimistic the remaining 17 units will be absorbed into the market in the next year or so.  If you are looking for single level living with an on site fitness center and easy access to walking trails, Nature Walk is worth considering.

Quarry Hill is another new condo development in Lebanon that is aggressively looking to move units in 2010.  We have helped a Buyer in 2010 purchase one of their units and we can attest to the flexibility and responsiveness of the Developer.   A particular advantage of working with this group is the opportunity to modify the floor plan to your needs.

Westboro Woods, along with all area developers has suffered the effects of the declining real estate market and economy.  The developer of this project has been steadily dropping prices to accommodate for the lackluster demand in the market.  With these units now priced in the +-$200,000 area I think they are priced well for what they offer.

Gile Hill in Hanover has reached the end of Phase one of their development plan and are now on to phase two with some new products.  They are adding townhomes with attached garages to the mix this year, which I expect will be well received.  They are priced between $300 and $400,000 depending on size, style and location in the complex.  Being “Green Built” and on the access road for Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center should continue to draw buyers to this complex.

If you are looking for a condominium in the Hanover/Lebanon area, give us a call, we help people buy them all the time.
