• Distressed Property Sales remained relatively the same this month to just under 22% with the breakdown shown below:

  • Over 13% of market sales were Short Sales; increasing from November   

  • Almost 9% were REO/Bank Owned homes; decreasing from November    

  • There are many homes still in the stages of Foreclosure that have not come to market to be foreclosed upon nor any signal from a homeowner that they’ll sell their home as a Short Sale in order to avoid a foreclosure. Time will tell with the unknown of these distressed homeowners and what the effect will be on the current Coral Springs Real Estate Market.

During December, the Absorption Rates  which show the available inventory of homes, now shows a rate of 3% which is a decrease from 3.24% in November.  This means that during December Coral Springs homes sold at a brisker pace than in November; selling within 3 months time. An Absorption Rate is always good for you to know, as a Home Seller. This rate will tell you that if you list your home for sale with the current inventory level, the inventory of homes will all be sold in little as 3 months.

How much is my home worth? As you can imagine, this is probably one of the first questions that I routinely receive from a homeowner who is thinking about selling a home in Coral Springs or anywhere for that matter. Price points will be considered when setting a price to sell a home in Coral Springs. These price points can tell you where there are a lot of Buyers looking in a particular range and are willing to pay that price thereby, increasing the chance of your home being sold. For example, if your home’s value was near the $400,000 price point and you were to price your home at $399,999 or just below, you’d have a much greater chance of reaching more Buyers compared to pricing your home immediately at $400,000 or just above. Pricing at the right price point can bring on multiple offers driving up the ultimate sale price of your home. Perhaps this can help you to understand that initial list price that makes all the difference in what you will sell your home for.  Thinking you can always reduce it later if your home doesn’t sell, statistically will result in a lower sales price and take longer to sell. I can speak to you further on this point, just call me. Not sure of where you should price your home; If you want to know, please contact me for a complimentary valuation of your home. As I say, again and again: Don’t price your home to negotiate
