Demand for Tahoe Real Estate Spikes as Area Reopens
Here in North Lake Tahoe, we’re seeing a revitalization of the area unlike anything we’ve seen in decades. Tahoe has always been a popular tourist destination, a place where people come to vacation and get away. Now, it’s becoming a place where people can see themselves living year-round or for extended periods of time. With more and more people working remote due to COVID-19, with schools gone virtual, and with people fleeing densely populated cities for a slower pace of life in the mountains, Tahoe is the perfect place to get away from it all.
At Ormsby Real Estate, we grew up in Tahoe and have spent over 20 years as a local, family-owned brokerage in North Lake Tahoe. So, we know as well as anyone what a great place North Lake Tahoe is to call home and to raise a family. The area is slowly starting to reopen after the COVID-19 shutdown and the real estate market is reflecting that.
Now is a great time to sell a home in Tahoe. Motivated sellers are in luck right now.
