Port Orchard WA 98366-98367 Homes Sold Market Report February 2013

Below are some market statistics for the Port Orchard / Manchester area  for the month of February 2013.  These homes are located in the 98366 and 98367 zip code areas and have a listed city of either Port Orchard or Manchester for their physical address.  Currently (March 15th) there are 314 homes available for sale in the Port Orchard / Manchester area of Kitsap County.  During the month of February 107 new listings became active in the NWMLS data base.  There were 71  homes that received offers and the seller and buyer came to terms and those homes are now pending inspection  pending back up, pending short sale or PENDING and headed to closing.  During February 50 homes that had been listed as pending closed and the change of ownership was recorded at the Kitsap County Courthouse.

Let’s look at those 50 Port Orchard homes

 

Total number of Homes Sold                                                                                         50
Median List Price $247,000
Median Selling Price $223,600
DOM=Days on Market Median: 101
Average List Price $243,459
Average Selling Price $223,523
DOM=Days on Market Average: 117
Homes Sold 2012 - 35 Increase of 15 or 42.857 %
Median Sold Price 2012 - $210,000 Increase of $13,600 or 6&

 

How many months of inventory is this?  If you take the total number of active listings  and divide by the number of homes that have gone pending over the last 60 days there would be just under 4.5 months for the Port Orchard/Manchester area.  That would indicate a tip to a seller’s market due to lack of inventory.

What do these numbers mean?  Is it a good time to buy? Is it a good time to sell. It all depends on your individual situation.  I would rather buy in a buyers market and I would rather sell in a buyers market if I have to buy another home with the proceeds.  I am a fan of the NORMAL market – everyone can feel more comfortable and real estate transactions are not as stressful. 

If you would like to find out the value of your home please feel free to contact me via phone or email. I would be more than happy to supply you with a FREE Market Analysis.
