Historical Number of Sales in East Windsor

Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

While looking for website uses of chartle.com, I began by trying to import data from an Excel spreadsheet to display a multi-line graph showing the monthly sales of each year. Excel graphs are almost unreadable when sized for the center div of the websites. Couldn’t work it out, but the following graph will present the story of how the market has changed fairly well.

When viewed on chartle.com, the bar sections are clickable and pop up a balloon with the actual number. Need to try to find out how to make that function carry over to the websites.

July Market Conditions

Friday, August 7th, 2009

Just added a comment on all of the township websites concerning the latest month’s activity in the local real estate marketplaces. Most townships showed an increase in activity and sales prices compared to the past twelve months averages. Most localities also have about 9 months worth of inventory, keeping the market in a buyer’s market status. West Windsor has only 5 months, Plainsboro 6 months. Hightstown on the other hand has 35 months supply of homes for the average sales cycle. Just click on the link on the right side of this page to access your community of interest.

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

where-do-customers-come-fromChecking on statistics to see where visitors are clicking through from to get to our Weidel site, still shows a close race between East Windsor and West Windsor NJ Homes for Sale sites. More people from Google than I would have thought. And the traffic has picked up this year.

Hickory Acres Neighborhood in East Windsor, NJ

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

I have been working to develop a more thorough overview of the neighborhood as a means of reconnecting with a development we have had a lot of success in marketing over the years. With the help of former across the street neighbors, I was able to get my hands on a copy of the builder’s original brochure for the homes. I have posted it on Issuu.com and then linked to it at our new page about Hickory Acres. There are also links to homes that are currently for sale and also to a page concerning homes that sold in the last year. Thanks to some help from SnagIt 9 this process didn’t really take all that long. This should now give me a reason to “snail mail” the current owners…

Update on Progress

Saturday, January 3rd, 2009

We have finished the update to the Cranbury, East Windsor, Ewing, Hamilton, and Hightstown website neighborhood pages. So a little over a third done. Interesting to note that Hamilton had about 250 fewer homes sold this last year (723 v. 972), while the sold prices remained almost constant.

It is that time of year again. Stay tuned for the updates on what the real estate market did in Central New Jersey. We will be updating all the neighborhood information on the websites in the right hand column within the next couple of weeks. Expect the number of sales to go down about 20% and the prices to remain fairly constant from last years revisions.

Population Estimates

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

Even though many are saying that New Jersey is losing people to the southern states, the Census Bureau has reported its estimate of July 1, 2007 statistics. All but three counties in New Jersey gained people rather than losing count. Most of the townships covered by this blog also gained. See links at right for individual numbers….

Website Updating

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

We have completed the data entry for the Mercer county township sites, now it is on to the sites for Plainsboro and Cranbury. The only one that took a lot of time was the Robbinsville NJ Homes for Sale site as many of the agents don’t specify neighborhoods in the Foxmoor area, just list them as being in Foxmoor. After those two townships are complete, we will have to take pictures of the various neighborhoods in Princeton, Pennington, Hopewell and Ewing for the neighborhoods pages, in addition to trying to figure out who the builders of those developments were…

And don’t forget that the Packers are in that championship game tomorrow evening…
