Camp Lejuene, Jacksonville NC Real Estate Market Report December 2012

This edition of the Camp Lejeune, Jacksonville NC Real Estate Market Report includes the latest monthly numbers through December 2012.

Jacksonville NC Re-sale home sales that experienced a steep decline last year and the first half of 2012 appear to have leveled off based on this year's annual numbers. Re-sale numbers are down only 1% this year from the same time period (Jan - Dec) as last year. New Construction sales have been steadily increasing, and my expectation is that trend will continue, at least through our local sales season in 2013. The Jacksonville NC Real Estate Market Report provides information so sellers are aware of current maket information.  This way, they have a full understanding of the homes they are in competition with, and can price their homes accordingly. Sellers must realize in the Jacksonville NC Real Estate market, your home is not just competing with the other homes for sale within your neighborhood...but also the homes 5 to 10 miles away within the same price range... including new construction.

This edition of the Jacksonville NC Real Estate Market report shows overall home sales are still occurring, and show a slight increase  over last year's annual numbers. If historical trends repeat themselves, sales will decline through January of 2013. All reported numbers are for single family homes only. The report does not reflect the numbers for town homes, duplexes, manufactured homes nor land sales. All information is taken from the Jacksonville Board of REALTORS MLS in areas 1 - 7 (Onslow County).

The Jacksonville NC Real Estate Market Report provides information for both new construction sales plus current inventory numbers and also for re-sale home sales and inventory.
