St Lucie County Single Family Homes January 2017 Market Detail

St Lucie County Single Family Homes January 2017 Market Detail

St Lucie County Single Family Homes Market Detail for January 2017 showed improved sales activity with improved results year to year.  Closed sales were up by 8.1% (in December they were up by 8.9%) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) also increased by 8.1% (they were up by 4.8% last month).

Prices also continued their upward march.  The median and average sales prices up by 8.9% and 16.1% respectively from last January (For December these numbers were up 13.9% and 12.0%).  While these are very good results for sellers, they make me a little nervous as rates of increase this high may result in lower affordability of homes and subsequently less sales in the future.

Active listings decreased by 112 homes to 1,844 homes.  This inventory is 2.7% higher than last year.  The current supply of homes is at 4.1 months (4.0 months for January of 2016)  This is 2.5% greater than last year.  The St Lucie County single family home market remains in a strong sellers market.  A balanced market is one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.

Social Media Sells Houses

Social Media Sells Houses

Real Estate online

Have you checked your Facebook status today? Perhaps sent a Tweet? Or posted a selfie to your Instagram account? Well if you’re like 74 percent of Americans, your answer to at least one of these questions is probably yes.

Social media has become a vital facet and component of our everyday lives. Thanks to the World Wide Web, we now have the power to stay connected to friends and family members that are miles away, as well as to locate long lost friends and classmates with whom we’ve lost touch over the years. We can show off our new babies, our new pets, and our new cars via widely transmitted photos and videos. We can report good news about our work and family lives, and—in tougher times—can ask for advice, help and resources if needed.

That’s all way cool and all, as the kids today would say; but the most important question in our minds, of course, is, “Can one sell a home through social media?”

Well today the answer comes in the form of a loud, resounding yes. People do indeed advertise houses for sale across social media, just as they tout and advertise the cars, books, services, music, products, or anything else that people want to sell to customers and clients throughout the country.

In the good (but technologically underdeveloped) old days, a homeowner or real estate agent trying to sell a home had a limited number of options available. They could advertise their house in the real estate or classified ad section of the local newspaper, list it in a MLS (Multiple Listing Service) book, and post for sale signs outside the home itself. And, of course, they could host open houses that would give prospective buyers the opportunity to tour the residence.

Of course, home sellers do still have the option of marketing their house through these innovative and wonderful means. Yet today, they also have the option of Facebooking and Tweeting out their listing, posting a photo of your home on Instagram, and filming a video tour of the house that can be shown on YouTube, Vimeo, etc.

By using social media to market your home, you can reach millions of people across the country; some of whom may be looking to move to your area from a faraway place, and are in search of a place to live once they get there. You also can reach people already in your community, who can contact you to arrange an immediate showing—and, or so we hope, a sale!

Basically, the information superhighway has transformed our nation into one big neighborhood; a place where we can show—and sell—our houses to the very best effect.

If you want your home sold with the help of social media, give me a call at (772) 323-6996.
