By

There are only three more months of summer for Kingsbrooke residents to enjoy before school starts in Prince William County.  Better get in that quality pool time while you can.  With last month well behind us, let's take a look back and see what happened in the Kingsbrooke townhouse market in July.  Comparisons will be made to last month's report, June 2011.

KINGSBROOKE TOWNHOUSES FOR SALE

4 Active Listings

3 Short Sales, 1 Foreclosure

High List Price was $270,000

Low List Price was $189,900

Average List Price was $221,700

Exacting the same number of active Kingsbrooke townhouse listings were on the market in July as compared to June.  And the split between Short Sales and Foreclosures is exactly the same.  High list price was the same.  Low list price was $4,900 higher.  Average list price was $11,725.  List prices are suggestions, and as such, for the best idea of market value always look in the SOLD column.

KINGSBROOKE TOWNHOUSES UNDER CONTRACT

5 Listings were Under Contract

4 Short Sales, 1 Foreclosure

High List Price at Time of Contract was $244,000

Low Marketing Time was 11 Days

Average List Price at Time of Contract was $210,780

Average Marketing Time was 29 Days

There were three fewer listings under contract last month.  Again, the majority of Kingsbrooke townhouses under contract are Short Sales.  In fact, one of the Short Sales under contract in July just settled on August 12th.  As it was my listing, here's a preview of that sale that will make it to next month's SOLD column.  The high list price at time of contract was unchanged; high marketing time decreased by 47 days.  Low list price at tie of contract was down by $14,000; low marketing time increased by 11 days.  Average list price at time of contract decreased by $3,806; average marketing time increased by 6 days.

Half the listings sold in Kingbrooke townhouses as sold in June.  Here, regular sales dominate once again.  The high sold price was $42,000 lower; high marketing time increased by 2 days.  Low sold price was the same; low marketing time was three days shorter.  Average sold price was $20,166 lower; average marketing time increased by 5 days.  One of the solds that represent the highest sold price and lowest marketing time was one of Short Sale listings.  You can click here for a detailed explanation of the sale.

Congratulations on getting your Kingsbrooke townhouse listing sold.  Despite being a short sale, yours was one with a higher sold price.

Anne:  That's probably contrary to what many people think about Short Sales, but they do sell for every penny of market value.
