Avalon/Stone Harbor NJ Weekly Update September 22nd, 2016



PENDING CONTRACTS UP:  August 2016 saw 53 pending sale contracts in the local market, up from 34 last August—a 56% increase!  That’s a reflection of the recent strength seen in the market.  Low and mid-priced segments have been the most active in the last several months.  For the latest Long & Foster Market Minute report, click here:  http://marketminute.longandfoster.com/Market-Minute/NJ/Avalon-Stone-Harbor.pdf

A NEW COAST GUARD CUTTER will soon be stationed at the Coast Guard Base in Cape May.  The newly built 154-foot USCGC Rollin Fritch is named for a World War II era sailor who served aboard the USS Callaway in the Philippines in 1945.  The Fritch is part of the Sentinel-class of cutters, and can reach speeds of 28 knots (32 mph), while remaining at sea five days at a time.

SAVOR SEPTEMBER, THEN CABARET NIGHT!  Saturday, September 24th brings with it two favorite fall events. Savor September kicks off at noon in Stone Harbor’s 96th Street shopping district, and offers an array of activities including crafts, music, food, wine & beer, until 8pm.  Saturday evening it’s Cabaret Night at Avalon Community Hall, beginning at 7pm.  The Marinos Band will perform everything from Top 40 to Oldies, R&B, Classic Rock, and Dance tunes.  Visit www.AvalonPerformingArts.org for info.
