July 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The July 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes had a reduced volume of sales when compared to last July, while prices continue to rise.  Closed sales were down by 8.0% (was up by 0.4% in June) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 9.6% (was down by 7.7% in June).

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( July 2015 to July 2016) by 11.6% and 8.0% respectively, compared to June’s 10.8% and 6.8%.  If the reduced volume of sales continue, I expect that these price rises will moderate considerably and possibly even retreat by next year at this time.

The inventory of available homes for sale fell by 3.3% from last year.  This is another trend that I think may reverse in the near future as more homes may come on the market while fewer sell.  For July there was only a 4.3 months supply of inventory as Florida remains in a sellers market with the advantage for sellers. (July of 2015 had a 4.4 month supply)  A balanced market favoring neither buyers or sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.

June 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The June 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes continues to be a strong market but activity is easing a bit from previous months.  Closed sales were up by 0.4% (was up by 4.5% in May) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 7.7% (was down by 2.7% in May).

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( June 2015 to June 2016) by 10.8% and 6.8% respectively, compared to May’s 10.5% and 4.2%.  These strong price gains will end up having an impact on future activity as many homes are now becoming much too pricey for the average buyer.

The inventory of available homes for sale fell by 2.8% from last year.  Higher demand areas of Florida have seen decreasing inventory for more than three years now.  For June there was only a 4.3 months supply of inventory as Florida remains in a sellers market with the advantage for sellers. (June of 2015 had a 4.6 month supply)  A balanced market favoring neither buyers or sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.

May 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The May 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes remains quite active, but showing some signs of stress as the inventory remains low and the values continue to rise.  Closed sales were up by 4.5% (was down by 0.6% in April) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 2.7% (was down by 4.2% in April).

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( May 2015 to May 2016) by 10.5% and 4.2% respectively, compared to April’s 9.2% and 3.8%.  Sooner or later these strong price gains will have a negative effect on sales and I expect this rise to slowdown in the near future.

The inventory of available homes for sale fell by 2.5% from last year.  Higher demand areas of Florida have seen decreasing inventory for more than three years now.  For May there was only a 4.4 months supply of inventory as Florida remains in a sellers market with the advantage for sellers.

April 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

April 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The April 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes shows continued strong activity but less robust than last year primarily because of reduced inventory and strong price increases.  Closed sales were down by 0.6% (was also down by 0.6% in March) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 4.2% (was down by 6.3% in March).

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( April 2015 to April 2016) by 9.2% and 3.8% respectively, compared to March’s 10.3% and 4.9%.  These year to year price increases remain very strong, and in my opinion, unsustainable for the long run.  But, for now, these increases show no signs of abating.

The inventory of available homes for sale fell by 23% from last year.  Higher demand areas of Florida have seen decreasing inventory for more than three years now.  For April there was only a 4.5 months supply of inventory as Florida remains in a sellers market with the advantage for sellers. (April of 2015 had a 4.8 month supply)  A balanced market favoring neither buyers or sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( March 2015 to March 2016) by 10.3% and 4.9% respectively, compared to February’s 11.1% and 9.2%.  Continuing a trend that has been ongoing for close to three years now.

October 2015 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

Election Day Humor

I received this in my email the other day and thought it would be a good one to share with everyone just before election day:

While walking down the street one day a Corrupt Senator (that may be redundant) was tragically hit by a car and died.
His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance.

“Welcome to heaven,” says St.. Peter.. “Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we’re not sure what to do with you..”

“No problem, just let me in,” says the Senator.

“Well, I’d like to, but I have orders from the higher ups. What we’ll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose where to spend eternity.”

“Really?, I’ve made up my mind. I want to be in heaven,” says the Senator.

“I’m sorry, but we have our rules.”

And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.

The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course.

In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him.

Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of the people.

They played a friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster, caviar and the finest wines and champagne.

Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly guy who is having a good time dancing and telling jokes.

They are all having such a good time that before the Senator realizes it, it is time to go.

Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises.

The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens in heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him, “Now it’s time to visit heaven…”

So, 24 hours passed with the Senator joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a good time and, before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter returns.

“Well, then, you’ve spent a day in hell and another in heaven. Now choose
your eternity.”

The Senator reflects for a minute, then he answers: “Well, I would never have said it before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be better off in hell.”

So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to
hell…

Now the doors of the elevator open and he’s in the middle of a barren land covered with waste and garbage.

He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags as more trash falls to the ground.

The devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his shoulders.

“I don’t understand,” stammers the Senator. “Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne, and danced and had a great time. Now there’s just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable. What happened?”

The devil smiles at him and says,

“Yesterday we were campaigning,

Today, you voted..”

Vote wisely tomorrow!!
