Currenty Active "For Sale" Residential Properties: 1,900
- $1,000,000 and over = 87
- $500,000 - $999,999 = 257
- $400,000 - $499,999 = 142
- $300,000 - $399,999 = 219
- $200,000 - $299,999 = 382
- $100,000 - $199,999 = 685 (36% of total market)
- Under $100,000 = 128
- Foreclosures = 36 (only 2% of total listings)
- Short Sales = 492 (26% of total listings)
- Median "asking" price of non-Short Sales = $289,000
- Median "asking" price of Short Sales = $149,900
- "Median" is the value, where half of the prices are higher and half are lower.
- Foreclosures sold = 64
- Short Sales sold = 143
- "Normal" sold = 162
- Median Short Sale Sold price = $127,000
- Median "Normal" Sold price = $145,000
Inferences from these data:
- There are not as many foreclosures as people think.
- This lends credence to the rising number of bank owned "shadow inventory" homes.
- Foreclosures sell quickly... and Short sales do not.
- A large % of non-distressed properties are listed at prices too high for the current market, causing them not to sell... Because the median "Asking" price is $289,000, but the median "Sold" price is only $145,000!
- Our current "Absorption Rate" (the rate at which homes sell each month, relative to total inventory) is only about 6.5%.
- That means if nothing else were listed from here on, it would take about 16 months to clear our inventory... (And that can't consider those many homes which are listed at prices too high and will never sell)
- IT'S THE BEST TIME TO BUY A HOUSE IN THE PAST 40 YEARS! INVENTORY IS HIGH. MORTGAGE RATES ARE LOW. PRICES ARE LOW.
