Daniel Gale Sotheby’s Mid-Year Market Report Shows Improvement

July 14, 2010 - PRLog -- Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty (DGSIR), one of the nation’s leading Realtors, recently released its 2010 Mid-Year Market Reports.   The company publishes 19 different town reports every three months focusing on all of the towns and villages that comprise the firm’s core markets. These reports can be accessed at http://www.danielgale.com/selling_market-reports.html.

The latest reports indicate increased sales in both counties this year over the same six-month period in 2009. Since seasonality is a factor, each of the 19 different reports compare the number of closed residential sales, days on market, average and median sales price, highest price, and listed properties to the same period of time for the prior year so that consumers can make their own informed decisions.

“As our economy starts to show signs of economic recovery and stability, we are also finding increased consumer confidence,” said Patricia J. Petersen, President and CEO of Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty.  “Some of the lowest interest rates in history combined with realistic pricing have contributed to a very attractive market.  Improved consumer confidence and proper pricing will continue to be the most important factors in ensuring properties on the market are both marketable and saleable.”

Founded in 1922, Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty consistently leads the nation in achieving one of the highest average sales prices in the country.  Voted Best Residential Real Estate Company in the Long Island Business News annual readership poll, Daniel Gale Sotheby’s is a billion dollar plus organization with close to 600 sales associates in 21 sales offices spanning Long Island.  Services include an award-winning Relocation Center, a New Homes division, a Condominium Group, a Commercial Division; Ambassador Abstract, a full-service title company, and a Wells Fargo Home Mortgage affiliation.  Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty has been the exclusive Sotheby’s International Realty® affiliate for Long Island’s North Shore since 1976.  Over the course of this relationship, Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty has gained exceptional national and international recognition, including taking top honors worldwide for the past several years.
