Pacific Rim Restaurant in Ann Arbor for Delicious Asian Cuisine

We just recently enjoyed a wonderful meal and dining experience at the Pacific Rim by Kona in downtown Ann Arbor.  I enjoyed every aspect of the meal.  The menu was extensive. The food was beautifully presented.  The ambiance was great, and you can actually hear each other’s conversations at the table.  The wait staff was very professional and we knew they really wanted us to enjoy the entire dining experience.

Their contemporary pan-Asian cuisine  draws from the best of Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese and Thai food.  Seasonal fresh ingredients are used in preparing each dish.  We had the Steak with Vegetables on Rice and the Sablefish along with Salad and Desert. (Menu) The food looked so good and tasted great, too.

The recent history of sales can be seen in the two charts above. The median sold price for the last 30 days was $262,500 with a DOM of 53 days. Since the recent DOM is greater than the median DOM for the last 6 months, it is a negative indicator for demand. It is always important to realize that real estate markets can fluctuate due to many factors, including shifting interest rates, the economy, or seasonal changes.

Looking at the chart below, you might be wondering why average days on market (DOM) is important. This is a useful measurement because it can help us to determine whether we are in a buyer’s market (indicated by high DOM), or a seller’s market (indicated by low DOM). Active listings (properties for sale) have been on the market for a median time of 87 days. Analysis of sold properties for the last six months reveals a median sold price of $272,500 and 41 days on market. Notice that properties in the $600,000 – $700,000 price range have sold quickest over the last six months.
