Sewalls Point Single Family Market Report April 2016

The single family real estate market in Sewalls Point showed a nice increase in pending sales for April, but unfortunately closed sales were once again less than expected.  There does seem to be very good showing activity, so I’m expecting sales to pick up as we head into the summer season.

The current absorption rate exploded to 22.7 months, in March it was 11.7 months. A very strong buyers market for Sewalls Point, and those who have dreamed of moving to Sewalls Point should consider taking advantage of this market while they can.  A 6 to 7 month absorption rate is considered a balanced market where neither the seller nor buyer have an advantage.

Comparing the results to April of 2014, the inventory was 79 homes on the market, 11 pending sales and there were 6 closed sales.  The pending inventory is looking much better for this year.

The Top 5 Reasons Every Buyer & Seller Should Hire a Realtor

Hire a Realtor

The number of homeowners attempting to sell by owner has dropped to record low levels. Now more than ever, it seems, homeowners and buyers alike recognize the importance of using a real estate professional. In fact, 87% of buyers last year used a Realtor, according to the National Association of Realtors. Most glaring, only 8% of homeowners were FSBO sales in 2015.

There are many reasons to use a Realtor, but here are The Top 5 Reasons Every Buyer & Seller Should Hire a Realtor:

1.  Agents Know What Buyers Want:  An experienced real estate agent can see what potential buyers will see – and perhaps details you have overlooked.  Agents are in tune with buyer needs, fears, nonnegotiables, and preferences.  Setting the stage for prospective purchasers is an extremely important part of the marketing process, and a good agent will provide you with tips, checklists, and feedback from a would-be buyers perspective.

2.  Agents are Real Estate Marketing Experts.  A real estate professional will provide you with a written marketing plan that outlines all the activities required to get your house sold at the highest possible price, in the least amount of time.  Real estate marketing is not about a yard sign, property flyers in an info box, or open houses. Real estate marketing is all about listing syndication, exposing your home to the greatest audience of buyers and their agents, and providing financing insight specific to your property.  Most important of all, a real estate professional will set the right list price from the start. They know that if you don’t price it right on day one, your chances of selling, and recouping your equity, will diminish with each passing day.

3.  Agents Know How To Handle the Multiple Sell.  Not only do they have to sell your home to a potential buyer, real estate professionals have to sell your home to the other agents in the area, and to the lender via the appraisal process.  An agent will guide you as to how to best position your property and your pricing to ensure the best odds of satisfying the often conflicting pricing opinions of all three.

4.  Agents are Skilled Negotiators.  A professional will be the calming influence you need in the midst of stressful negotiations. They’re also the objective third-party “buffer” in the process.  Experience has taught them that there are many creative ways to bring contract negotiations to a successful close.

5.  Agents Keep the Transaction Together.   There are many moving parts before the closing.  Inspections, financing contingencies, and title searches are such some of the steps that can derail a transaction.  A knowledgeable and experienced agent will take on these contingencies, renegotiate the details, and keep the transaction moving forward to a successful close.

If you’re looking for a top agent on Florida’s Treasure Coast give the Gabe Sanders BlueWater Realty Team a call.
