The statistics shown below indicate how fast ... or s-l-o-w ... houses are selling in your area. If you have to sell your house, you must take into account your community’s Absorption Rate. The concept is easy to understand once you understand the formula. First, you must know how many homes sold over the last year. Then you must determine the Absorption Rate, or average number of homes that have sold on a monthly basis. From the Absorption Rate, you can easily estimate how fast the current inventory of available homes will sell. The larger the current inventory—or ‘active listings’—the longer it will take any one home to sell. If there are twice as many active listings available for sale than the current absorption rate, it will take twice the amount of time, or 2 months, to sell out c...

WOW!! So far we are showing 1,189 closed sales in December with a median price of $169,900. Inventory plummeted with a lot of listing expiring at the end of the year. I'll re-check next week to get a better indication of where we are. Check back early next week for more detail on these statistics. David Welch, Remax 200 Realty, Orlando Real Estate

In my training a couple of week's ago, I asked Mr. Pilchik how could make some money in between buyers.  He told me to get busy with rentals, because a lot of people need assistance due to foreclosures, downsizing or moving to the area.  Well Mr. P. if you read this - thanks for the advice.  It's working!

So far in December there have been 906 sales closed with a median sales price of $169,990. That is up just a bit from November's $168,000, but we have not closed out the month just yet. We could end December anywhere between $168,000 and $170,000 with just a few sales making the difference. It does support my thought that we have hit the bottom, since December is usually the weakest month of the year. January is usually pretty close, so if we are still around this same price point 30 days from now, watch for prices to rebound a little into the $180,000 range. Below is my prediction for 2009. 2008 has been a transition year in many ways. We saw sales hit their bottom and transition into what I will call our new normal. We saw prices finally come down, as short sales and foreclosures bega...

Waterford Lakes this week saw a break even with the number of homes sold vs. number of homes added to the market.

The same is true for non-foreclosures within Waterford Lakes.There are currently 65 Waterford Lakes homes in foreclosure or that are being sold as short sales which require third party approval. The 65 homes are ouf of the total 168 homes for sale which brings the numbers to 39% of the homes on the market within Waterford need the lender to approve the sales price. Of course, just as with my previous post, there are 14 bank homes for sale in Waterford Lakes are not included within the 65 homes that are in foreclosure.Below are the most recent statistics for the ...
