Debunking popular real estate myths

Debunking popular real estate myths

Misconceptions include notions of a ‘perfect’ house; that length of time on the market means easier negotiating; that lowball bids are OK in a buyer’s market; that distressed property sales are easy and cheap options; and that prices will continue to fall in down markets.

July 24, 2011|By Lew Sichelman

When it comes to real estate, all is not always as it seems. Many buyers — and some sellers — labor under misconceptions that could sink their housing aspirations.

Take the notion that you will hunt for a house until you find the “perfect” one. Sorry. There is no such thing as the perfect house. Even gently used houses come with blemishes. And new homes rarely, if ever, have absolutely everything you want at the price you want to spend.

For the Jensen Beach, Florida condo market, June was a disappointing month with one of the few sectors in the Treasure Coast of Florida real estate market with an increase in inventory.  It is, however, getting into the off-season for condos in our market and this is more true for those condos on Hutchinson Island, where sales and activity are very seasonally dependent.

27 Condo sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval (Down 3 from May).

8 Condos Sold in May (No change from last month).

Condo Sales in the 34997 area of Stuart Florida were unchanged for June.  As with all other areas in Stuart, the inventory continues to shrink,  Pending sales were down as we will probably see a slower market for condos during the summer and early fall season.  Typical for this area of the Treasure Coast.  Actually, quite good numbers considering the weak economy and the pretty bad news reports for June.  With the decreasing inventory, demand will sooner or later catch up to supply leading to a more balanced market and hopefully an appreciation of values.

Feds: House prices rose for second month

This just in from the Florida Realtors:

Feds: House prices rose for second month

WASHINGTON – July 21, 2011 – U.S. house prices rose 0.4 percent on a seasonally adjusted basis from April to May, according to the Federal Housing Finance Agency’s monthly House Price Index. The previously reported 0.8 percent increase in April was revised to a 0.2 percent increase.

For the 12 months ending in May, U.S. prices fell 6.3 percent. The U.S. index is 19.6 percent below its April 2007 peak and roughly the same as the January 2004 index level.

The FHFA monthly index is calculated using purchase prices of houses backing mortgages that have been sold to or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. For the nine Census Divisions, seasonally adjusted monthly price changes from April to May ranged from -1.0 percent in the West South Central Division to +2.0 percent in the Mountain Division.

As always, don’t put to much stock into national reports and stats.  Real estate remains an extremely local market and some locations do much better than others for various reasons.  Please check out our market statistics for information about the local area.

60 Homes Sold in May (Up 7 from May)

For zip code 34997 in Stuart Florida, June sales were up by 7 homes while pending sales were off signifying a coming slower market for the summer and fall months, which is the typical seasonal pattern for the Treasure Coast real estate market.  The inventory continues to decline and we are back to 2005 levels which was prior to the big market slowdown.  When the supply of existing homes for sale decreases enough to equal the demand, we will then be back to a balanced (or normal) real estate market which will result in a slow increase of values once again as prices will start to once again rise.

Condominium Market Report for June 2011 in Martin County, Florida

07.18.11 by

Condominium Market Report for June 2011 in Martin County, Florida

We’re beginning to see a fairly typical slowdown of condo sales for the summer months, as generally condo sales in Martin County tend to be seasonal on average.  Prices are still decreasing in most segments, but at a very gradual pace and we expect it to firm up a bit.  The big unknown is the number of distressed condos that may come on the market next season as well as pent-up seller demand that may increase inventory.  If inventory increases, expect prices to continue decline.

Residential Market Report for June 2011 in Martin County, Florida

Fairly strong market activity report for June 2011 in Martin County, Florida.  Only a small decrease in volume from last year when there was a skewed increase in activity from the first-time home buyers tax credit.  Interesting to note, average sale prices have increased for the county.  Some of this result is from some higher-priced homes beginning to sell and not necessarily an increase in value for existing resales.  However, prices seem to have leveled off in certain market segments.
