A Smile Goes A Long Way When Dealing with Multiple Offers

A Smile Goes A Long Way When Dealing with Multiple Offers

Indeed, multiple offers are back this season. I can actually count on more than one hand times that buyers have lost out on a home this season. It’s always devastating for them! The supply in south Florida, while still very high, does not have the excess investment properties, must-sell Sellers (who already purchased something else), and builder spec homes. 90% of that surplus of inventory dissipated in the past 6 years like a slow dripping faucet. Eventually the drips (buyer purchases) add up and the bathtub overflows. If the bathtub size (supply) were expanding, this would be ok, but builders have been constructing homes at historic lows. In Palm Beach County, we have seen a 12% drop in supply from this year compared to last year. Today’s buyer on average also has different values. They want new construction (which is now defined as 2000+ since there is no new inventory), low HOA fees (this has replaced luxury items), and location-location-location. Homes fitting this description are the ones typically receiving the multiple offers. The other category are short sales, since they are marketed at a must-sell price or sometimes below. Whether the short sale gets approved or not is an entirely different story. If a buyer is purchasing in this category, they need to be aware that they aren’t in a complete buyer’s market anymore. Below are the following strategies I work on with Buyers.

Prepare a Buyer
It’s important the client is aware of what is available, what is under contract, and what has sold. Going through details of statistics in advance is vital.

Exhaust Them
Most clients just don’t believe the market isn’t god-awful until they lose out on something. It’s important to show everything and then some. Sometimes looking at everything gets the point through.

Story Telling
I share stories about how clients lost something in advance.

Visualize
I ask my clients to visualize that they lost the house and how would they feel in a week if they lost it. Try to picture the future.

Promise
Visualizing is not enough. I make them promise and shake my hand that they won’t come back and say I wished you pushed me harder. This gets them to really think about it.

New Properties Will Come On Higher
Homes that have been on the market the longest are often the ripest to sell. When homes sell faster, prices go up. The new listing is going to want more for a least the first 90-180 days.

Give The Lady What She Wants
An old selling by Chicago merchant, Marshall Fields. Give the Seller what they want. Be nice, offer cash or at minimum a preapproval letter, close to 10% down, closing time that the Seller wants. No one wants to do business with an insulting bottom dweller. The Seller doesn’t want headaches. Present yourself as the nice person you are. A smile goes a long way.

Speed
Like in the Rocky Balboa movie. Mickey had Rocky chase those chickens. Get your offers in fast with the same day or next day acceptance time. Sellers will take the time that is allotted to them. Make decisions faster and cut down on the possibility of multiple offers from coming in from the get-go.

Awareness
Sign up for internet IDX automatic emails on an hourly basis. Knowing about the listing first will give you a head’s-up over the competition.

AS IS Contracts
While not always great for the Seller, they offer free options on tying up the house. Once under contract, Sellers will usually agree to repair items because they will have to fix it up for the next guy. Once under contract, the negotiating power will even itself out.

For April 2012 in the 34996 Zip Code area of Stuart, Florida :

There are currently 191 active condo listings (Down 8 from last month).

52 Condo sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval (A decrease of 6 condos from March).

26 Condos Sold in April (An increase of 3 condos from March)

The inventory continues to decline in the Stuart condo market for the area in ZIP code 34996. Sales activity increased slightly with 3 more sales as compared March and pending sales were down slightly, but still high. Very strong signs for this segment of the market. There was a fairly good mix of both Island units as well as some of the lesser priced 55+ community condos on the mainland selling last month.

Compared to last year in April of 2011, the numbers were 222 active listings, 35 pending sales and 15 closed sales.  Much better numbers this year, especially since the inventory is considerably less.  If this trend continues, it will not be long before we start seeing some gradual price increases in the 34996 Condo market in Stuart, Florida.

Sewalls Point Market Report – Residential, April 2012

Sewalls Point Real Estate Snapshot, Residential Sales for April 2012

There are currently 63 active listings (an increase of 2 homes for sale from March)

19 Residential sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval (An increase of 5 from March)

2 Homes sold in March (Down 1 from March)

The market remains slow for the Sewalls Point real estate area of Martin County, Florida.  The one bright note is a fairly large increase in pending sales.  This will hopefully translate into some healthier numbers of closed sales in the near future.  Both closed sales and inventory remain basically unchanged from last month.

Comparing the results to April of 2011, the inventory is basically unchanged as there were 60 homes on the market last year, pending sales were 12, and 5 homes sold. Closed sales were higher last year.  We should see closed sales for the near future catch up with last years figures as the higher number of this years pending sales close.

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for March 2012

04.30.12 by

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for March 2012

Commentary:

Unlike the residential segment of the Martin County real estate market, the Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for March 2012 showed modest increases for March of 2012 rather than the explosive growth in the single family segment of the Martin County real estate market.  Sales for March were a respectable 64 units, 19 units less than March of 2011 (83 units)  but higher than February’s 57 units. On a positive note, the median sales price rose to $103,500 from an anemic $85,000 last month.

The inventory rose slightly to 651 condos, which is up from 640 units last month and down from the 721 condos that were on the market in March of 2011.  The one month absorption rate is now at 10.2 months, while the three month average is at 12.4 months.  It remains a challenging market for condos in Martin County. We need to see the absorption rate below 9 months for a healthy market and down to 6 or 7 months to be considered a balanced one.

The big uncertainty that remains is the economy. We believe that if we have any sustained good news, we will see a pretty good rush on the market which will be a nice change from the present. For the longer term, even though we have the best mortgage rates in history at the moment, inflation is making news and this is not good for rates down the line. The Fed is working hard to keep rates down, but for how long, we’re just not to sure.

Our outlook for Martin County is fairly positive as for buyers, prices and rates remain very attractive. For sellers, it doesn’t look like we’re going to see any significant improvements soon, so if you need to sell, you may be better off now than possibly in the near future.

There are currently 199 active condo listings (Down 8 from last month).

58 Condo sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval (An increase of 15 condos from February).

23 Condos Sold in March (An increase of 13 condos from February)

Compared to the end of last year in March of 2011, the numbers were 242 active listings, 34 pending sales, and 36 closed sales.  While closed sales were off from last year, the mix of sales shows a higher number of more expensive Island Condos as well as the fact that there are approximately 20% fewer units actively for sale at this time.

There are currently 84 active listings (Up 6 from February).

41 Residential sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval (Down 2 from February).

7 Homes Sold in March (Down 5 homes from February)

The 34994 ZIP code area of Stuart showed a slight easing from the fairly good numbers from February.  Inventory was up by 8%, pending and closed sales were off slightly.

Last March at this time, there were 99 active listings, 29 pending sales and 6 closed sales.  So, still better than last year at this time.

In the 34997 zip code of Stuart, Florida there is not a large inventory and many of the homes currently on the market are just not what today’s buyer is in the market looking for.  So, sales will continue to be difficult unless the home is very attractively priced.

Sewalls Point Real Estate Snapshot, Residential Sales for March 2012

There are currently 61 active listings (a decrease of 5 homes for sale from February)

12 Residential sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval (An increase of 3 from February)

3 Homes sold in February (Unchanged from February)

Better results for the Sewalls Point market report. Inventory has gone down a little (5) to 61 homes while sales remained slow at 3 closed homes and pending sales were up slightly to 12 homes. Compared to other parts of martin County which continue to have fairly strong results, the Sewalls Point market is a bit sluggish, but showing activity is high and I suspect we should have increasing sales in the next few months. The Sewalls Point price point remains high for many of today’s buyers and this is possibly what is causing the slow activity at present.

Comparing the results to March of 2011, the inventory is basically unchanged as there were 60 homes on the market last year, pending sales were 11, and 2 homes sold.  Basically the same as last year.  The Sewalls Point average price point remains high for many of today’s buyers and this is possibly what is causing the slow activity at present.

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for February 2012

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for February 2012

Commentary:

Much like the residential segment of the Martin County real estate market, the Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for February 2012 showed modest increases for February of 2012. Sales for February were a respectable 57 units, up by 3 from February of 2011 (54 units) and also up from January which had 37 sales. On a negative note, the median sales price took a dive to $85,000.  This is most likely a reflection of the mix of condos that sold in February as opposed to a big drop in values.  More of the lower priced mainland condos were the ones that drove down the median price.

The inventory continues to decline and is now down to 640 condos, which is down from 664 units last month and from 772 condos in February of 2011.  This is the lowest inventory since November of 2005 which was prior to the ‘bubble’.  A decreased inventory will trigger an increase in demand as the supply of existing units just isn’t available increasing the urgency for buyers.

The one month absorption rate is now at 11.23 months, while the three month average is at 13.54 months.  Considerably better than the 14.3 and 15.51 months of February 2011. We still need to see the absorption rate below 9 months for a healthy market and down to 6 or 7 months to be considered a balanced one.

The big uncertainty that remains is the economy. We believe that if we have any sustained good news, we will see a pretty good rush on the market which will be a nice change from the present. For the longer term, even though we have the best mortgage rates in history at the moment, inflation is making news and this is not good for rates down the line. The Fed is working hard to keep rates down, but for how long, we’re just not to sure.

Our outlook for Martin County is fairly positive as for buyers, prices and rates remain very attractive. For sellers, it doesn’t look like we’re going to see any significant improvements soon, so if you need to sell, you may be better off now than possibly in the near future.

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for February 2012

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida residential market report for February 2012 showed excellent results. The sales volume of 116 homes was the exact same as last year and up by 18 homes from January (98). The one month absorption rate was down to 11.85 months while the three month moving average is at 11.31 months. Activity remains high and I expect some fairly respectable numbers for the coming months.

Both average and median sales prices were up from January.  In fact, average sales prices have risen for the last two months.  Along with this trend, listing prices are also inching up, and have been rising for the past six months.  The inventory declined to 1375 residential units.  This is the lowest value since October of 2005, before the ‘bubble’.  The reduction of inventory is what is exerting strong pressure on possible price increases.  While a continuing trickle of distressed properties (short sales and foreclosures) are counteracting the upward price pressure.

Our outlook for Martin County remains optimistic as prices and rates remain at historic low levels. For sellers, homes are selling, and if priced and presented optimally, they are going quickly. Buyers are seeing historically low interest rates and very affordable quality homes in almost all price ranges.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any difficulty interpreting these charts.
