Omaha Real Estate: Omaha Real Estate & Omaha Homes for Sale - The Trumm Team (Keller Williams Realty)

Mike assisted with the sale of my listing at 19233 Spyglass Ct in Buccaneer Bay by representing the buyer.

Working with a good agent makes my job much easier. It is time consuming selling over 50 homes a year, but having a good agent on the other side of a sale makes closing a deal much easier. 

I hope we can do more business together in the future.

Actor Max von Sydow once said, "All my life I've been looking for diversity."  Well he should have come to Omaha.  Omaha's workers come from the metro area, the East and West Coasts.  They come from India, Mexico, Africa, Europe, Russia, China and Southeast Asia.  Over 22 percent of the population in Omaha is of a different race.

What is driving these people to come to Omaha?  They are coming from around the world to study business at Bellevue University, Creighton University, and the University of Nebraska at Omaha.  They come to study medicine or conduct research at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, and Creighton University Medical Center.

They are attracted by the high-tech positions at First Data, First National Bank of Omaha, West Corporation or the Scott Technology Transfer and Incubator Center.  Google is even building a $600 million data center in the Omaha Metro area.

Forbes magazine ranked Omaha eighth among their "Best Cities for jobs 2008," the nineth best city for nurturing information technology businesses and one of the top 15 metro areas in the nation.  Expansion Management ranked Omaha one of the America's "50 Hottest Cities" for business expansion and the "22^nd Best Place to Live and Launch a Business."  Newsweek named the city one of 10 "High-Tech Haven."  Entrepreneur magazine put Omaha among the top 20 best cities for small business.

No matter the reason they come to Omaha, they stay because of the opportunities.

Antoine assisted with the sale of my listing at 6616 N 81 St in Wynnewood by representing the buyer.

If it were not for good agents like Antoine, then I wouldn't be able to sell over 50 homes a year.

Antoine made this an easy sale and I hope we can do business again.

The sale of my listing at 8711 S 45 Ave in the Faulkland Heights subdivision of Omaha closed and the buyer was represented by Justin Gomez.

Working with a good agent makes my job much easier. It is time consuming selling over 50 homes a year, but having a good agent on the other side of a sale makes closing a deal much easier. 

Justin made this a smooth transaction and I hope we can do business again in the future.

Omaha Real Estate Market January, 2010

This is a summary of the Omaha real estate market. Of course I know that we are almost at the end of February by now, but better late than than never.

The overall market has picked up and there is now an 8.42 month supply of homes for sale. This is down from 11.86 in December of 2009.

Now for the existing home sales in Omaha. The number of sales are down from December, 2009 but this is to be expected. Since few people are writing offers in December, January has fewer closings.

This same patterns holds true for new construction homes but even more so. The number of closed sales is about half of what it was the previous month.

From what I have seen is that sales are picking up and prices are remaining steady. The increase in sales might be due to more buyers or because sellers are becoming more realistic about what their homes are worth.
