daphne real estate: Pending sales up for homes in Daphne, Fairhope and Spanish Fort - 09/08/11 05:53 PM
August sales for homes in Fairhope, Daphne and Spanish Fort AL slowed, but the number of homes going under contract picked up.
Inventory fell by some 60 single family units in early September, from 997 homes for sale in Spanish Fort, Daphne and Fairhope in August to just 938 now.
Foreclosure inventory and sales are down a bit, but this is probably temporary. Short sales listings have increased, which may be a sign that distressed sellers have finally understood that there are options to foreclosures. In fact, of the 90 distress sales on the market, 33 are short sales and … (0 comments)

daphne real estate: Housing absorption rate at 11 months in Daphne, Spanish Fort and Fairhope - 12/06/10 05:05 PM
"Is it getting any better?"
I get this question about as often as "How ya doin'?"
The answer to the local housing market question is: Not really.
Home sales and pending sales were virtually unchanged on the Eastern Shore of Mobile, AL from October to November.
And the bigger picture shows that the market absorption rate is still seriously out of whack. Industry experts agree that a six-month inventory of homes for sale is the sign of a healthy, stable market. If the absorption rate surpasses that, then it's a buyers' market.
Locally, if not one more house was listed for … (0 comments)

daphne real estate: August 2010 home sale statistics for Spanish Fort, Daphne and Fairhope - 09/14/10 02:22 PM
August showed signs of improvement in the Eastern Shore home market with inventory down and pending sales up.
The number of homes for sale in Fairhope, Daphne and Spanish Fort fell 5.5 percent and pending sales increased 17 percent.
Remember the End-Of-The-World-As-We-Know-It report in late August about existing home sales falling 27.2 percent in July? With economists and journalists taking a minute-by-minute pulse on the real estate market, the patient was almost declared critical. I could - and did - predict that the patient would recover. In fact, Realtors as troops on the ground, sensed that this was yet another trough, … (0 comments)

daphne real estate: First half of 2010 was great ... but now what? - 07/20/10 03:46 PM
Home sales on the Eastern Shore of Mobile, Ala., in the first half of 2010 posted their best numbers since 2007. And the 2nd quarter home sales between Spanish Fort and Point Clear helped put the numbers over the top with 294 sales, compared with just 157 this time last year and 227 in 2008. Finally, all the factors seemed to work together: the home buyer tax credit low interest rates, which continue today plenty of homes to choose from realistic sellers who corrected prices in tune with the market pent-up buyer demand, which burst as either time or economic fortunes … (1 comments)

daphne real estate: May 2010 home sales in Spanish Fort, Daphne and Fairhope, Alabama - 06/09/10 07:34 PM
May, 2010, home sales on the Eastern Shore declined 16% from April, as the market took a breather after the rush to the finish of the home buyer tax credit. Between Spanish Fort and Point Clear, 90 homes closed, compared with 108 sales in April. Pending sales sagged too, with 146 under contract in the second week of May, compared to 186 a month ago. Seems the summer doldrums have set in early, with slow and variable buyer interest. Unfortunately for existing home sellers, short sales, foreclosures and new construction made up almost half of the sales in this suburban market … (0 comments)

daphne real estate: Eastern Shore home sales surge ahead of tax credit expiration - 04/14/10 06:17 PM
Gosh, it's been grim.
But I'm here to tell you that this month - April 2010 - feels like it might as well be 2005, considering the volume of house sales going on.
Sure, the homebuyer tax credit expires April 30. Sure, some people moved up their time frames to capture as much as $8,000 in tax credits.
But I'm hoping that the effort to get the housing market chugging again like a great locomotive will have staying power. It just takes some time to get the big wheels on the Real Estate Express moving. And maybe, just … (0 comments)

daphne real estate: Pending sales soar in March, 2010, on Mobile Bay's Eastern Shore - 04/08/10 03:50 PM
Pending sales have soared as the expiration of the home buyer tax credit approaches. By April 8, 173 homes on the Eastern Shore of the Mobile, Alabama Metro area had gone under contract, up from 125 under contract during the first week in March, 2010. Of these, 43 are new construction and 30 are short sales or foreclosures. The First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit, later expanded to include many previous homeowners, expires April 30. Buyers must have properties under contract by the time to get up to $8,000 in tax credits. Home sales also rose in March to 80 units, up from … (0 comments)

daphne real estate: Pending sales improve, but January 2010 home sales weak in Spanish Fort, Daphne, Fairhope - 02/05/10 04:23 PM
Pending home sales are showing signs of better days ahead for the real estate market on the Eastern Shore of the Mobile, Alabama, Metro area.
January sales were typically weak, at 43 homes sold in Spanish Fort, Daphne and Fairhope, compared with 56 in December 2009. Still, last month's sales were a slight improvement over January 2009 when just 40 homes sold.
This first week in February, 117 homes are under contract, a nice improvement from the 101 under contract in the first of January.
Pricing remains soft, with sellers taking on average 7 percent off the list price in January.

daphne real estate: Home prices hit the skids in 2009 in Spanish Fort, Daphne and Fairhope - 01/19/10 03:59 PM
Statistics can be manipulated. But the evidence shows a 17.5% decline in house values on the Eastern Shore in 2009. Coupled with our deceptive and behind-the-rest-of-the-nation 1% decline in 2008, housing prices are almost back to pre-Hurricane Ivan levels of 2003-04.
The picture is a bit brighter in terms of the number of homes sold. Low interest rates, the first-time homebuyer tax credit and an abundance of inventory and incentives helped check the decline in the total sales to only 3.5% compared to 2008.
For the year, 803 homes sold between Spanish Fort and Point Clear, compared with … (0 comments)

daphne real estate: December 2009 home sales in Daphne, Spanish Fort and Fairhope - 01/07/10 07:31 PM
Home sales on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay proved to be weak in December, as sales declined to 56 compared to 65 in November.
A poll of Realtors by the National Association of Realtors predicted a lull during the holidays and that was borne out in the statistics. Locally, however, the end-of-year season is usually second only to the April-May rush in sales in the area between Spanish Fort and Point Clear.
However, local Realtors report an uptick in buyer inquiries and showings in the last weeks of 2008. Hopefully, that will result in transactions in 2010. … (0 comments)
