Tequesta Inventory Level Declines 5% in June Multiple offers, quick sales and rising prices have become the rule here in south Florida as the amazing real estate rebound of 2012 continues. The shortage of quality single family homes continues and absorption rates have declined to levels we have not seen in about 7 years. Inventory levels throughout the north county region continue to drop. And we are talking about very significant reductions. Many buyers are finding out just how competitive this market is when out shopping for a new home. When a home that is properly priced hits the market, especially in the sub $400,000 price ranges, it is snapped up immediately and I mean in days if not hours. Acting quickly on new opportunities has not been this important since early 2005 before the ... 07/14/2012

Absorption rate in Tequesta drops 25% Year after year, for almost seven years, we have had to report news of sliding prices as we continue to pay the price for the big real estate bubble that popped in late 2005. But as Bob Dylan says “the times they are a changin’”. With each month that passes us by the eventual recovery has to draw closer and with the trend we have seen in local markets one might say that recover has been here and the bottom has finally been set.   Each month around this time we bring you updated numbers for the absorption rate in the Northern Palm Beach County area. These numbers, and especially the trend we see in these numbers, are critical when understanding how inventory and demand interact and what role they will have in future price movements. As interest rates... 07/05/2012

Tequesta single family home sales remain above 12 month average Everywhere one looks there are signs of the troubled housing market finally recovering with a firm foundation. Bidding wars have become commonplace with properties selling above list price and in some cases above appraised valuations. As we turn from the spring buying season to the summer months things have changed and buyers in the northern Palm Beach County area are finding that it is not that easy to find a home.   There are certainly bumps in the road ahead with millions of homeowners across the country owing more on their mortgages than the property is worth and the level of foreclosures expected to pick up in the coming months. But the demand seems to be stronger than the supply locally and it sure feels like we are s... 07/04/2012

Tequesta Inventory Level Declines 6% in May The real estate market in south Florida remains extremely strong with buyers scrambling to find the right opportunities and take advantage of interest rates that keep setting new historical lows. Inventory remains a significant issue with a shortage of well priced homes in many price categories putting measurable upside pressure on the market for the first time in over 7 years. Some experts are reporting they feel banks are “hoarding” foreclosures and the upswing in housing prices is temporary in nature and will reverse course once much of the “shadow inventory” is released. We keep a very close eye on new bank inventory hitting the market and to date in the northern Palm Beach County area the REO inventory that does hit the market are lower p... 06/30/2012

Tequesta Absorption Rate up 12% We continue to see positive news from the local real estate markets with an increase in pending sales and higher median prices reported throughout the region in April. Momentum seems to be gathering steam with interest rates continuing to slide and inventory levels continuing to shrink.

Tequesta Inventory Level Down 7% Last Month April passed quickly by and brought with it increased activity from the investor market and their surging demand for lower priced opportunities. Ever so slowly the change from a bear market to a bull market continues to show momentum in South Florida. Investors are making up about 1/3 of the current market and their appetite continues to grow with prices being driven much higher in many investment grade communities. Almost 100% of these transactions are cash deals and end up with multiple offers being presented within a day or two of the listing hitting the market. Inventory levels in this market segment remain challenged with a demand that does not appear to be able to be fully sated. Another third of the market is made up of first time homeb... 05/08/2012
