As an example, check out the “supply level” of the Edmond area, and how it’s changed from month-to-month over the past year:

The numbers you see on the left edge of this graph are based on what we call “absorption rate,” which is simply comparing the pace of home sales this past month with the number of homes currently on the market. If no more homes hit the market going forward, and the pace of sales remained the same, it would take X months to sell off all of our inventory.

This data is crucial in determining how competitively we need to price your home to achieve your desired timeline. When that number spikes higher, how do you think that affects your position in the market? Supply and demand dictates how much we will get for your home. Clear as mud, right?

Yep, all of these things seem to be within grasp in the near future. Check out this amazing new machinery from Whirlpool:

This all-in-one washer/dryer is a time-saver and a game-changer for the entire family, especially a busy family. Now, imagine instead of your current washer and dryer, you have 2 of these in that dedicated space. How much less time would you spend in that stinkin’ laundry room? Yay, for more time with the family!

MORE INFO – Here’s another video, this time from Cnet:

Here’s a Coffee Creek video we did about 6 years ago:

The rumors started flying about a week ago, when the Edmond Sun reported that the Coffee Creek HOA had called a meeting to discuss the pending sale of Coffee Creek golf course to a developer. From what I’ve seen, the sale was finalized on 1/12/17, so now the big question is, what’s next? Of course, it’s fairly simple to draw the conclusion that the closing of the course, along with the purchaser being a developer means that the property will be developed, but into what? That’s where all the rumors fly. Homes? Apartments? There’s word of both and homeowners are rightfully concerned.

I’ve had several people already asking “what’s this going to do to my property value?” I’ve sold many homes in the Coffee Creek community over the past decade or more, and even have one under contract now. One thing I know, it’s not just the golf course that makes it a desirable area and keeps these homes in demand. In fact, Coffee Creek golf course might be near the bottom of the list in most peoples’ minds when purchasing a home in Coffee Creek. It’s the location, the amenities, and the beauty of the area that make it a desirable place to call home. The multiple parks, pools, ponds, walking trails, coziness to Mitch Park, convenience of shopping, dining, and entertainment, all contribute to the Coffee Creek’s popularity.

So, will this change affect property values? It’s almost certain, but will it be a positive or a negative? New construction will generally bring some higher sales values into the area, which can be a good thing overall, but more apartment units could have the opposite affect. My guess is that the majority of home owners in CC won’t be affected much, but the properties that back to what is currently the golf course, or even have a partial golf course view will likely see their values decline to some degree. Those properties have had an upgraded view all along. You take that away and it’s obvious what happens. The desirability of those properties is affected and thus values are affected.

Hopefully this developer keeps all of these things in mind as they move forward with plans, and more information is sure to come to light in the coming weeks and months. One thing we know, Edmond is very picky about the types of development they allow and are especially sensitive to what areas they allow it, so don’t expect trailer parks and wal-marts to be built on what we’ve long known as Coffee Creek Golf Course.

There was reportedly quite a gasp that came from the crowd, but in a positive sense. To me, the funniest part of the whole thing is the facial reaction of the gentleman shown immediately following the kiss:
