SELLERS: FREE COMPARATIVE MARKET ANALYSIS & HOME VALUE ESTIMATE
April 2013: Buyer's confidence is at a multi-year high, with reduced inventory & lessened shadow inventory, offers are being made closer & closer to list price as buyers compete for the homes & condos that are priced correctly and offer the best value in this rising Palm Beach county market. According to Lawrence Yun, chief economist for the National Association of Realtors, job growth and pent up demand are driving home sales with the only headwinds coming from tough credit conditions in the mortgage markets & limited inventory.
February 2013: Prices are up! According to the National Association of Realtors & CoreLogic: "Home prices increased by the most in 6.5 years in December (2012), spurred by the low supply of available inventory and rising demand. Home prices rose 8.3% in December (2012) compared with the previous year, according to CoreLogic, a real estate data provider. That is the biggest annual gain since May 2006."
December 2012: The market has turned! We are on the way back up as it seems more and more clear that Palm Beach county bottomed in 2011 and has seen gains in 2012. Despite the possible "fiscal cliff" looming, real estate remains a safe haven for investment and protection of personal assets. Buyers continue to be selective, but those with specific criteria and patience are still finding fantastic deals. For sellers, the worst is certainly over and a return to normality is already present. If you have any questions regarding Palm Beach County real estate, I would encourage you to call me at 561-374-3899. - Jesse
October 2012: Palm Beach County real estate is up! Few markets in the country are poised for the type of return in values that Palm Beach residents & homeowners can look forward to and are already enjoying. Nationally, we are seeing year over year price increases and lower inventory levels. Here in Palm Beach County, that could not be truer with many markets showing price increases & and an increased number of transactions at the community level. Nearly all of the communities & submarkets that we specialize in have seen nice rebounds off the bottom with 3-7%+ appreciation forecasted for the next several years to come. Investors are buying properties as they hit the market and first time home buyers are seeing how the market has already turned, especially for the most desirable homes and condos in the best communities. New home prices jumped on average of 11% to $256k at the national level.
