Columbia Gorge Home Sales-July 2010
July 29, 2010

In July 2010 there were 34 homes sold gorge wide compared to 56 homes sold gorge wide last month.  This is the total number of homes sold in July 2010 for the Columbia Gorge Region: Hood River & Wasco Counties in Oregon, Klickitat & Skamania Counties in Washington.  These are the cities and towns reporting sales.  These sales are only LISTED sales not FSBO's or unlisted sales.

But first, here's a month by month look at total gorge sales this year compared to 2009: The good news is that even though sales still feel slow, look at how they compare to the same month last year. The market has picked up substantially, at least for the first 4 months.

  • May-53 sales              May 2009- 46 sales
  • June-56 sales                June 2009- 50 sales
  • July-34                            July 2009-55 sales

  WASHINGTON- Klickitat County-8 sales    Skamania County-3 sales

Hood River Waterfront Park
July 17, 2010

The Hood River Waterfront Park is a welcome addition to the community. The park is located along the Oregon bank of the Columbia River. There are walking paths, benches, a sandy beach and swimming area, picnic shelters, restrooms, grassy areas and play equipment. My grandchildren love to visit this park. There is a climbing wall, spinning equipment, a large wooden xylophone and things for drumming on. If you have some kids who need to burn off energy, this is a good place to bring them.  When the kite sailors are on the river it's a fun and colorful sight to watch. Sometimes my husband and I take our lunch and go sit at the park to watch all the activity going on. The gorge and river scenery is beautiful as well.

Energy Efficient Rebates for You!
July 17, 2010

Thanks Molly, Good to know, we have personally used this program in the last 2 homes we've built. 

Via Molly LeBlanc 503-490-5229 (Pete Anderson Realty):

Energy Efficiency Rebate Program

Do you know that more than 70% of the energy used in our homes is for appliances, refrigeration, space heating, cooling, and water heating? Replacing old appliances and equipment with those that are ENERGY STAR labeled can help American families save significantly on their utility bills. Each state and territory has selected its own set of ENERGY STAR qualified products to rebate, based on this DOE list of recommended appliances:

- Boilers
- Central air conditioners
- Clothes washers
- Dishwashers
- Freezers
- Furnaces (oil and gas)
- Heat pumps (air source and geothermal)
- Refrigerators
- Room air conditioners
- Water heaters

To encourage customers to buy energy efficient products, ENERGY STAR partners occasionally sponsor special offers, such as sales tax exemptions or credits, or rebates on qualified products. Here is a list of different products you might consider swapping out for ENERGY STAR products in order to earn a rebate in your specific region:

ENERGY STAR Clothes Washer:
- Use about 30% less energy
- Use over 50% less water than regular washers
- Have a greater capacity than conventional models, meaning fewer loads of laundry.
- Cut energy costs by more than a third
- Cut water costs by more than half
- Save $135 each year on utility bills

ENERGY STAR Dishwasher:
- Use about 8 gallons less water per wash
- Use less energy to combat global warming
- Save an extra $40 on utility bills compared to regular dishwasher

ENERGY STAR Refrigerators:
- 20% more energy efficient
- Cut your energy bills by $165 over the lifetime of your fridge

ENERGY STAR Freezers:
- Use 10% less energy
- Save an extra $35 a year on energy bills

ENERGY STAR Room Air Conditioners:
- Use 10% less energy
- If every room air conditioner sold were ENERGY STAR qualified, it would prevent 800 million pounds of greenhouse gas emissions annually, equivalent to the emissions of more than 66,000 cars. WOW!

ENERGY STAR Solar Water Heaters:
- Cut energy bills in half

ENERGY STAR appliances help save the environment. Nearly 70 percent of U.S. electricity is generated by burning coal and natural gas, which releases greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere and causes global warming. ENERGY STAR qualified appliances use less energy than conventional models, and help protect our lakes, streams and oceans.

Visit Energystar.gov to find out more about the rebate program in your state and reduce your carbon footprint.

It looks like real stone-using Cultured Stone for detail
July 15, 2010

                             

We are completing the cultured stone on the tapered column of the newest house we've built.  We used Owens Corning Cultured Stone Country Ledgestone for this application. The color is called Bucks County. There is more stonework in the house; the interior part of the tapered column and the wall behind the woodstove. The chimney on the roof will be faced in cultured stone as well. 

This house is located in Hood River's East Stonegate neighborhood. It is 2180 sq ft with 3 bdrms, 2.5 baths, office, all oak, slate and tile floors, natural gas forced air and a wood stove for heat, tankless gas hot water, clear cedar shingle siding and many special artistic features.  It is listed for $475,000.

Clock Tower Ales, The Dalles, Oregon
July 05, 2010

 

I'm glad this historic building has a new use for many to enjoy. Thanks Colleen for writing about this.

 

Via Colleen Bergsma Real Estate:

Clock Tower AlesIt was mid afternoon, just after the lunchtime rush and before the 4PM performance of local musician Victor Johnson when we stopped by Clock Tower Ales on Sunday.  We were looking for a late lunch and decided to try one of the beer samplers along with our Caesar Salad and Grilled Roast Beef and Brie sandwich.  Clock Tower Ales specializes in craft beers and you can sample 6 beers of your choice for $8.00.  Choices range from Pilsner, IPAs and Blue Paw Ale to Hazel Nut Brown Nectar, Tree Hugger Porter, Guinness and many others.  There are also wine and cider selections as well as non alcoholic beverages.  The food menu is light pub fare featuring pizzas, salads, soups and "starters" such as dips and chips, hummus and a meat and cheese plate. 

Clock Tower Ales opened earlier this year and has recently addedClock Tower Ales outside seating in the form picnic tables on the front lawn of the historic building.  Originally the second Wasco County Courthouse, built in 1881, the stately old brick building in the center of downtown The Dalles features the signature clock and tower that inspired the pub's name.  For many years after it was vacated by the county, the building housed a funeral home as well as a meeting place for the Masonic Lodge. It is on the National Registry of Historic Places and is located at 311 Union Street in The Dalles.  Hours are Wednesday-Sunday, 11AM-10PM (9pm Sunday). They have free wi-fi!

Hood, white-water rafting on the Deschutes River, shopping and dining in Portland or walking the Pacific Coast BeachesGoogle has a large data center here, next to the Columbia River to access its cooling water supply. Real Estate in The Dalles is scenic and varied.  There are lots of wonderful, affordable homes for sale in The Dalles, contact me for info - and join us on Facebook at Colleen Bergsma Real Estate!
