Sell Your Home In the New Year

Sell Your Home In the New Year

Home Selling

As we bid a sad farewell to the holiday season and mark the beginning of a new year, you may be considering any number of major life decisions and transitions; not the least of which may be the sale of your home.

This decision might be made for any number of reasons. Perhaps you have made it a New Year’s resolution to find the home of your dreams; yet first you must sell the house that you currently own. Or maybe the new year brings a new job, school term or living situation that necessitates a swift and expedient move. Or it could be that you spent the better part of last year preparing for a big move; and now that the new year is upon us, it is finally time to pack up your belongings and head out of Dodge–heading straight into a new place of residence in the process.

Whatever your reason for wanting to sell your home at this particular point and time, rest assured that now is an excellent time to put your place of residence up on the 2017 housing market; and for a variety of reasons:

1. The housing market is booming. With the resurgence of the real estate industry and—for that matter—of the economy in general, now is the time to buy and sell; and especially to sell, as more and more people have the money needed to spend on the homes of their dreams—and to pay top prices for the very best houses. And that home could be yours!

2. The new year often inspires within people the desire to move and to grow. Some individuals even may wish to buy a new home for the new year, and may make it a New Year’s resolution to invest in their dream home. Take advantage of the wave of wanderlust; make your home available for sale at the earliest possible convenience.

3. Many Realtors are back at work after the holidays. Although a vast number of professionals in all job categories take a few weeks off during the holiday season, they often come back to work at the beginning of the New Year; rested, energized, and ready to do their very best at—well, whatever it is that they do. This is also true of Realtors, who are now back at work and ready to help you score a successful home sale.

Interested in selling your home?  Give me a call at 772-323-6996!

Price changes were mixed for November with the median price up by 0.8% (was up by 11.9% in October) while the average sales price decreased by 11% (was up by 13.4% in October).  I’ve been expecting prices to moderate for some time as the inventory continues to increase and sales volume does not keep up.

The inventory of available townhouses and condos increased by 23 units from last month to 553 units, which is 4.3% greater than November 2015. The current supply of units is 5.7 months, which is 11.8% higher than the 5.1 months of inventory last year.  The St Lucie County townhouses and condos continues to be in a sellers market though it is getting closed to being balanced.

St Lucie County Single Family Homes Market Detail for November 2016 showed improved sales activity from last year though at a reduced rate.  Closed sales were up by 0% (in October they were down by 24.5%) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 3.3% (they were down by 8.9% last month).

Prices, however, continue their upward march at strong rates.  The median and average sales prices up by 22.5% and 18.5% respectively from last November (For October these numbers were up 12.0% and 13.4%).  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 increased by 110 homes to 1,795 homes.  This inventory is 9.3% higher than last year.  The current supply of homes is at 4.1 months (3.6 months for November of 2015)  This is 13.9% greater than last year.  The St Lucie County single family home market remains in a very strong sellers market.  A balanced market is one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.

Values, also, continued to increase though at a more moderate pace.  Median sales prices were up by 8% (was up by 8.1% in October), while the average sales price increased by 4.5% (was up 0.5% in October).  As sales activity decreases and if inventory continues to increase, I expect these prices to continue to moderate, though they are staying pretty resilient at this time.

The inventory increased by 13% from November of last year.  For October 2016 we have 6.1 months of inventory (was  5.9 months in October) and compared to 5.4 for November 2015.  We are now in a balanced market for Florida townhouse and condo sales.

Buying a New Home for a New Year

Buying a New Home for a New Year

New Year

So with the dawn of the New Year you may find yourself wanting to make some major changes in your life; and whether this yearning takes the form of a fanciful New Year’s resolution or an organized certified life plan, these planned changes just might involve the purchase of a new home. If so, then have we got a deal for you….

Sure, as Realtors you would expect us to say that; the fact is though, that this may indeed be the most ideal time to purchase a new home; and for a vast variety of reasons.

1. The housing market is thriving. Showing a vast improvement over previous years, the real estate market is a rife with opportunities—and brimming with beautiful homes—for those interested in buying.

2. The start of a new year happens to be an optimum time for home sales. Many of the people who opt to acquire a new home with the start of the new year must sell their old homes first; and although pre-owned, one of these houses might very well qualify as your ultimate dream home. In addition, people looking to build their own new homes often must sell their old homes first, to accrue the capital needed for this major construction project.

3. If you do indeed wish to make a fresh start with the coming of the new year, then the selection of a new home base or residence just may be integral to these changes. A clean, beautiful new setting can give a person a fresh new perspective on life, helping to signal a very positive turning point throughout the course of that existence.

4. A new job or school arrangement often necessitates the purchase of a new home. If you are starting off the new year with the acquisition of a new job or perhaps enrollment in an institution of higher learning, then these exciting new changes also might necessitate a major geographic move. Or to phrase it another way, you might have to relocate in order to live closer to your new place of business or study. And while you might opt to rent an apartment or dorm, as opposed to making a major home purchase, many people use some of the money earned through newly acquired jobs or scholarships to purchase their own homes.

If you see the purchase of a new home in your future, then make the future now; buy a new home for the new year!

4 Condos are pending and awaiting close. (Up by 3 pending condos from October)

Hobe Sound FL 33455 Condo Market Report November 2016

No Condos sold in November. (Decreased by 1 closed sales from October)

The Hobe Sound condo market (Zip Code 33455) is the smallest segment of the Martin County real estate market.  We have finally seen a small increase in inventory as well as pending sales which should show increased activity in future months.

With no sale for November, the absorption rate cannot be determined.  Absorption rates in this segment of the Martin County real estate market should be taken with a liberal grain of salt, as small changes in activity make for very large changes on percentages that November not reflect a true trend in the market. An absorption rate of 6 to 7 months is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the buyer or seller.

The November 2015 numbers were: 4 active listings, 1 pending sales and 1 closed sales.  It’s very difficult to make meaningful comparisons with such low numbers of sales and inventory.

Tucked away on Hutchinson Island, the Treasure Coast’s 16-mile lush barrier island, is a unique resort that greets guests with the warmth of true Southern hospitality.

The Hutchinson Island Marriott Beach Resort and Marina stretches across 200 acres of plantation landscape on Hutchinson Island, bordered on one side by the Atlantic Ocean and by the shimmering Indian River on the other side.

A newly remodeled lobby with sweeping draperies, plantation-style wood furnishings and tropical tones sets the stage for a magical golf getaway. This is the gateway to an array of championship and executive courses, including Nicklaus, Fazio and Player designs.

Golfers of all skill levels will enjoy the challenging fairways and greens found in the area’s 12 courses. Plantation East, the resort’s own course, meanders throughout the island and is characterized by water on 17 of 18 holes. This 4,042-yard, par-61 executive course requires careful club selection and precision shot-making to overcome constantly changing ocean breezes.
