Rye NH Real Estate Market Report 2010 vs 2011

Rye NHRye New Hampshire

Rye NH is one of those bedroom communities where if you blink you would miss the town center. But, if you were to drive along the coast you will never forget the dramatic views of the rocky shoreline or the majestic view of the Isles of Shoals as it sits awaiting your visit about 10 miles off shore.

Driving along coastal route 1A in Rye you can see some of the most prettiest views you will see along the east coast. Monika and I usually try to make a drive along the coast at least once a month during the winter and twice to three times during the warm summer months. It can be really beautiful as you pull off to some of the vista view points on a warm summer breezy evening and sit and watch the waves crash along the jagged rocks along the coastline. The smell of the salt air and low tide brings a whole new meaning to way life should be. You have to love the ocean to know what I mean.

Rye NH Real Estate Market

As we finished 2011 we reflect back on the home sales for Rye and we compare them to the home sales of 2010. Home sales in 2011 were up 4% over home sales in 2010. But, home sale prices were down 12.5% from 2010 to 2011. Days on the market were down 6% which is a good thing for sellers. With prices down and interest rates at historic lows we look for another great selling season in southern New Hampshire.

Portsmouth NH Holiday Tree Lighting

Portsmouth Tree LightingPortsmouth NH Holiday Tree Lighting

Jay and I drove to Portsmouth after he finished marching in the Hampton NH Christmas parade with the Prudential Verani float. We wanted to see the annual lighting of the Portsmouth Town Christmas Tree and spend some time walking around downtown.  It was awesome albeit a little on the chilly side, to see so much holiday spirit and we thoroughly enjoyed listening to a band play Christmas music and hear people in the crowd sing along.  As we stood and watched the tree light up you could just feel the excitement in the air and it was easy to get caught up in the joyous mood of the crowd.

I hope my video gives you a little feel for what it was like.

New Hampshire’s Glorious Fall Season

Fall is a very special time of year for New Hampshire

While I am a major summer lover, fall has always been very special to me. Not only do we often have summer type weather, that lasts well into the fall season but it’s also a very visually beautiful time of year.  From our amazing New Hampshire coastline to our awesome White Mountains and the many country roads in between our scenic drives are sure to amaze you with all their glorious fall colors.

The Seacoast Coastal Byway

The Seacoast Area Coastal Byway is an awesome ride along route 1A to Portsmouth NH with dramatic ocean views and then there is the The American Independence Byway a 21 mile ride that winds it’s way along Exeter NH through Hampton NH and of course one of our most famous rides…  The “Kanc” Kancamagus Scenic Byway which is an all time favorite.

Be prepared for incredible New Hampshire beauty

A cruise along the Piscataqua River

Last Monday night Jay and I along with about 230 other real estate professionals went on a boat cruise along the Piscataqua River. The boat ride was sponsored by the Seacoast Board REALTORS and was a very popular highlight of the 5oth annual New Hampshire Association of REALTORS convention.

The convention was held in Portsmouth and was jam-packed with educational opportunities as well as networking, the installation of new officers and the crowning event… naming the New Hampshire Association of REALTORS- REALTOR of the Year.

We had a blast! Congratulations to Nancy Philbrick for being named REALTOR of the YEAR and to John Rice and his leadership team!

Portsmouth NH a great city to live in

Portsmouth NH a great city to live in and to play in

If you live anywhere in southern New Hampshire you will find yourself not too far from one of the most beautiful cities in New England, Portsmouth.

Yesterday my husband and I took a ride out to the coast and visited beautiful downtown Portsmouth, a waterfront city that boasts plenty of shops, restaurants and hotels along with some great companies that make this city by the sea thrive.

We parked our car at our real estate office, Prudential Verani’s Portsmouth office on Maplewood Ave and from that location we walked all around the waterfront as we made our way out to Peirce Island in time to see the Tall Ships Boat Parade that was scheduled for 1 pm.  The Tall Ships visit Portsmouth every year and  it’s always a pretty big event. This year the Portsmouth Tall Ships Festival is early which makes for a fun filled Memorial Day weekend and what better place to kick off summer than in Portsmouth NH a jewel by the sea.

The three day event has something to offer everyone, you can visit the Tall Ships on the state pier and walk around and enjoy the lovely flowers in Prescott Park. You can also visit the  Strawbery Banke Museum and enjoy some of the beast seafood around or of course you can go shopping. You’ll find the downtown area full of unique shops and restaurants to fill every need.

Welcome to Portsmouth NH, you’re going to love it here!
