Based on the Chautauqua County, New York MLS(Multiple Listing Service) data, the number of Chautauqua Lake property Sales for 2010 year to date have increased 18 percent over that of the same time period for 2009.

 

Interesting facts for Lake Front properties

Data based on Sales from January 1, 2010 - October 28, 2010

Average sale price $268,800.00

Average square footage 1,861

Average days on market 128

Looking at the largest segment, Lake Front Properties priced between $200,000 and $400,000

  • January 1st to October 28th 2009, the average sale price was $298,000
  • January 1st to October 28th 2010, the average sale price was $276,500

In comparison, there has been a 7% decrease in sales price but an increase in the number of unit sales for 2010. If the trend continues we should expect to see in increase in sales through 2011 and see property appreciation come back into the mix.

In my opinion buyers can still find great value in Chautauqua Lake Real Estate and can enjoy their investment. Chautauqua Lake properties have great value compared to the Finger Lakes in western New York and all of the lake areas in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Canada.

Chautauqua Lake is complemented by the world renowned Chautauqua Institution, which attracts buyers for from around the globe. The majority of Chautauqua Lake Real Estate buyers for vacation homes; come from Cleveland, Pittsburg, Buffalo and Toronto.
