Jacksonville Real Estate Update 4-30-22

 

 

 

 

Hello, Hope your week is going great!
 
Have you ever heard the phrase " Sell in May and Go Away"?
It's an old stock market adage that suggests investors should sell their stocks in the summer because the return was less than in the fall & winter. That may be the case in real estate this year as well. Inventory is rising (not jumping or spiking) but rising, here in NE Florida it's up @ 10% from last week. With 2,300 residential properties for sale as of today. While demand is still strong it is not what it was even a month ago. As with the stock market, it's impossible to time the real estate market. But both buyers and sellers wanting to make a move this Spring/Summer, should be consulting with their Realtors and mortgage brokers every few weeks to keep tabs on their interests going forward in the coming month. The high selling month of May.

Mortgage News:
Rates didn't move much from last week but something to keep an eye on, Adjustable rate mortgage demand is at it's highest rate since 2009...

Foreclosures :
There are double the number of foreclosures from last week - 12 You can check them out here->  Current Foreclosures in NE FLorida

Hello, Hope your week is going great!

I keep hearing that you need to order your Christmas gifts soon or they might not arrive on time. If you want to be in a new home by Christmas, you need to be looking now. Closings generally take 30-45 days from contract to closing and I hate to be that guy, but there's only 73 days til Santa comes down the chimney. Mortgage Rates: rates ticked up from 3.14% to 3.18 over the past week- This is the highest since June but still pretty dang low.

Foreclosures: 21 on the market - still not seeing an uptick here, will probably be early next year (I said that at the end of last year as well) See all of the foreclosures here.

Real Estate News: Builders seem to be getting their footing. We are seeing a more willingness to give financing incentives to buyers, however build times from ground up are still close to a year in many cases. If you would like to discuss new construction opportunities in NE Florida reach out to me, I would love to help!

Have a great rest of your week, please give me a call if there is ever anything I can do for you.

PS: Set your alarms, Jags play in London this Sunday at 9:30 EST - The Jaguars are the 1st team in the Super Bowl era not to have a field goal 5 weeks into the season! So Sunday I say we win 17-10.
 
 
 
 
It's a tight market right now! Not enough homes - Here are what some of my qualified buyers are looking for right now just in case you know of anyone wanting to sell.
  • Any Price - Investor looking for a portfolio of properties
  • Any Price Glen Kernan
  • 2.5M Oceanfront St. Augustine
  • 1.2M Max NW St. Johns riverfront with extra garage space

  • 200K condo/townhome Southside

  • 300K Fleming Island Plantation or Eagle Harbor
  • Have lots of buyers under 250K in pretty much every area of Jacksonville
If you are thinking of selling and your home matches any of the above criteria, please reach out to me and I can hopefully save you some time and money!

Hello, Hope your week is going great!

It doesn't quite feel like fall here in NE Florida yet. Guess the Jacksonville Agricultural Fair hasn't been to town. We did have about a week of what we Floridians know as "Fake Fall". That 3-5 days of just wonderful temps that make you think the heat is over only to get smacked back to reality the following week.
The real estate market here in NE Florida is still on fire but we may be experiencing a fake cooling here as well. There's a lot going on in DC and wall street, interest rates are creeping up and overall real estate search via google is down a bit.
This will probably not help with our inventory issue and lack of housing so I don't see prices coming down for a while but the demand may ease ever so slightly, which is to say, instead of 5 offers a just listed may have, over the next few months that property may have 3.

Mortgage Rates:   3.14%  is the average  up from 3.10% last week, Refinance demand is at the lowest level in 3 months & New mortgage applications are down 2% from last week but down 13% from the same week a year ago.
Real Estate Stats: Average sales price in NE Florida is up 17% YOY in Jacksonville as of Sept 21
Foreclosures: There is only 19 . See all of the foreclosures here.

New listings:  You can keep up to date with every property hitting the market here on our newest listings page

Homeowners: I invested some marketing money in a new platform for you to stay on top of your homes current value and your equity position easily.  I will be sending out links to many of our past clients from now until the end of the year but if you can get a jump start by visiting our new home value tool here .


Have a great rest of your week, please give me a call if there is ever anything I can do for you.

PS: The Jaguars & Trevor Lawrence will get their first win this Sunday at home vs Titans, if you are in town you may want to see it!

9-2-20 Jacksonville Real Estate News

 

Hello, Hope your week is going great!

As of this week all of Florida schools are back in session in one way or another but the real estate rally before school started finished with a bang.

August 2020 numbers from our Northeast Florida area are in and WOW! Median sales price up 8% YOY and we are under 2.5 months worth of inventory - INCONCEIVABLE!
The pinch of inventory is across the  board but the higher price range really jumped out at me. 356 homes sold for over 500K in August of 2020 vs 275 in 2019 that's a big jump! Also, there were 25% less homes for sale priced over 500K this past August vs 2019.
Back in April I was not what your would consider an optimist about the real estate market but after this summer selling season I feel like the market has legs. (I probably just jinxed it but we'll see)
You can keep up with the NE Florida real estate market here
 
 

 

 
       
         
         

Mortgage News:

Nationally mortgage demand is 28% higher than it was this time last year. It's putting stress on the lenders systems and mortgages are taking longer to close than even a month ago. Make sure to keep this in mind prior to signing an offer with a quick close time frame.

Foreclosures :
Seriously same as last week! 3- Tres, Three! Only three new foreclosures came on the market it past 7 days. Again, Florida is a judicial state and there is a moratorium on foreclosures throughout the state, so not sure when we will see an uptick but probably early 2021.  here are all of the current bank owned properties



Have a great rest of your week, please give me a call if you ever need anything.
Thanks & Be Safe

Hello, Hope your week is going great!
Currently there are 4,865 active residential homes & Condos for sale in our local MLS which covers all of NE Florida. The average sqft of those homes is 2,187. So what happens when you search for something nearly 3x that size? Well for starters the price jumps, the least expensive 5,000+ sqft home for sale currently is $575,000 but there are 137 other options if you are looking for that kind of size here on the first coast.
If nothing else a lot of these are fun to look at :)
Click here to check out homes with over 5,000sqft!
Or
See all of the homes for sale in Northeast Florida here/

 

Real Estate News:

Looking at July numbers:
  • Median sales price is up 9% vs July 2019 to $265,000!
  • Weird number is : Median list price 2020 $290,000  vs 2019  $281,990    2.84% change
  • VS Median sales price 2020  $265,000  2019  $241,000    9.96% change
Kind of scratching my head on that one. The market is tight though, sold to list is over 96% I think that's the highest I've seen it.. ever.
       
         
         

Mortgage News:

The numbers of borrowers going into forbearance dropped this past week so that is good news for the future real estate market. Rates are still really low but new changes from Fannie Mae need to be discussed with your lender if you are planning on purchasing or refinancing.

Foreclosures :
3- Tres, Three! Only three new foreclosures came on the market it past 7 days. Again, Florida is a judicial state and there is a moratorium on foreclosures throughout the state, so not sure when we will see an uptick but probably early 20201.  here are all of the current bank owned properties



Have a great rest of your week, please give me a call if you ever need anything.
