Eichler Homes Realty where modern living starts in the Bay Area About EHR Business Directory Contact Eichler Communities Category: Eichler Insights EICHLER INSIGHTS [Eichler Insights] Winter 2013 DECEMBER 25, 2013 LEAVE A COMMENT For this issue of Eichler Insights we sent to all homeowners, I shared my market insights article based on our client experiences with buyers making (and losing some) offers as well as our own Eichler listings throughout the summer / fall sales. Multiple offers on every Eichler home shows us that demand has never been higher. My 2014 prediction — […] READ MORE → EICHLER INSIGHTS [Eichler Insights] Summer 2013 MAY 23, 2013 LEAVE A COMMENT . . .

In this issue we summarize the activities of 2012 and wow, what a year of growth! Look at this $$/square foot price growth for 2012 and see the sales data compiled for all Eichlers sold in 2012.

Eichler Insights was the first regular newsletter exclusively delivered to Eichler homeowners, providing real estate sales statistics and specific tips on your home ownership. Since then, the internet has certainly changed how we share information but […] READ MORE → EICHLER INSIGHTS Jerry’s Journal of 2009 MARCH 20, 2009 LEAVE A COMMENT 03-20-09. Wow! Spring has sprung, or at least it's springing, for the inventory of Eichlers has taken a quick turn for the better. As of today, our Eichler area now boasts 30 listings, about one-third of them showing up in the last week or so. We've not seen the listing activity that normally happens just after the Super Bowl until now. Perhaps the hesitancy and uncertainty caused by our economic situation to either sell or buy is beginning to wane, and so folks are getting on with their lives. I think what we need now is to have that 30 number remain about the same, with several new listings appearing weekly, and the same or similar number of sales occurring as well. Everybody wins in that climate. We'll see what happens. It is rather unusal to have two of the outstanding Eichlers located on Stanford University grounds be listed at the same time, as happens today. And for those of you who may be new Eichler enthusiasts, you may be surprised to learn that there are over 100 Eichler homes located in the beautiful environs of the Stanford property. Virtually all of the homes, several of which are shown in our book, Eichler Homes – Design for Living, are considerably larger than the homes found in the “normal” communities of Palo Alto, Sunnyvale, Mountain View, etc. They are, however, recognizable Eichlers, through and through, with more square footage devoted to […] READ MORE → EICHLER INSIGHTS Eichler Demography MARCH 10, 2009 LEAVE A COMMENT The Eichler homeowner – who are they now, and who have them been? (Click on the map to enlarge the view) Demography, among other things, can be a statistical study of all populations. Or, a social science that deals with a structure and distribution of a population. Or – other studies dealing with groups of people. While my thoughts and […] READ MORE → EICHLER INSIGHTS Eichler architects JANUARY 5, 2009 LEAVE A COMMENT Eichler architects: (Claude Oakland and Joseph Eichler) Anshen + Allen, Jones & Emmons, and Claude Oakland & Associates – those were the architectural firms that helped make Joe Eichler famous for his mid-century, modernist homes of the 50’s, 60’s and early 70’s. Taste and appreciation of architectural style is today what brings “the Eichler” to the […] READ MORE → EICHLER INSIGHTS Happy New Year to one and all JANUARY 1, 2009 LEAVE A COMMENT Happy New Year to one and all, and once again welcome to the new site / blog of Eichler Homes and the MESH Network. As is the case with all new sites it may take a time or two to become accustomed to the new and much more flexible format, but I know you will find it worthwhile.

Back in the saddle to a bit of activity during the holiday. As mentioned early this month, the market activity on my Eichler Market Data page got down into the 60's – 66 to be exact – and will probably stay around that area for a month or so. Typical. As mentioned last week, I'm happy to announce that I have formed a new relationship with a very active and capable team of realtors, so that Eichler enthusiasts and home sellers can continue to benefit from the activities and history of Eichler Homes Realty – now infused with new energy and talent. Mark Easterday and Sabrina Huang, of […] READ MORE → EICHLER INSIGHTS Jerry’s Journal of 2006-2007 AUGUST 21, 2008 LEAVE A COMMENT There are some interesting Eichler numbers to review for the 2007 year. I’ll be discussing those next week – see you then! 12-24-07. A Very Merry Christmas to all of you on this Christmas Eve, and Best Wishes to all for a pleasant, productive, and prosperous 2008. Time for a break with my family, so Ho Ho Ho , I’ll be back in touch January 3rd, 2008! 12-17-07. Christmas holiday decorating and shopping have evidently begun in earnest. Another typically slow week in our real estate market. Last Sunday’s Mercury News headline, “The Housing Slump – Where it its home” carried an article about the number of foreclosures unfortunately occuring in the valley. Fortunately, however, those numbers were in areas / zip codes away from the areas including Eichlers. “Our part” of silicon valley seems essentially untouched by those problems. 12-10-07. Well the activity bested last week at least. 3 new listings, and 3 sales occured during this chilly weather week. It appears that we have more than our share of informed buyers. This slower time of year can be the best time of our real estate year to make that purchase. “Sounds like a real estate broker” I know, but just let me know your thoughts about next March! 12-3-07. As predicted, a relatively uneventful week last week. 3 new listings, no sales, and cold or cooler weather was the order of the day. 11-26-07. We’ve entered the seasonal […] READ MORE → Eichler Homes Realty 505 Hamilton Ave # 100 Palo Alto, 94301 408-887-1821 mark@eichlerhomes.com Follow on Instagram: theeichlerguy SEARCH FOR...  Search Categories 614 Torrington Dr Announcement Eichler Insights Eichler Rentals Eichlers for Sale in Burlingame Eichlers for Sale in Cupertino Eichlers for Sale in Mountain View Eichlers for Sale in Palo Alto Eichlers for Sale in San Mateo Eichlers for Sale in San Mateo Highlands Eichlers for Sale in Santa Clara Eichlers for Sale in Sunnyvale Market Trends Modern Related Opportunity of the Week Remodel: Kitchen SOLD BY Eichler Homes Realty * Sold in Atherton/Menlo Park Sold in Burlingame Sold in Cupertino Sold in Foster City Sold in Ladera Sold in Los Altos Sold in Menlo Park Sold in Monte Sereno Sold in Mountain View Sold in Oakland Sold in Palo Alto Sold in Portola Valley Sold in Redwood City Sold in San Jose Sold in San Mateo Sold in San Mateo Highlands Sold in Santa Clara Sold in Saratoga Sold in Stanford Sold in Sunnyvale Terminated/Expired/Withdrawn Uncategorized Eichler Homes Realty Blog at WordPress.com.
