We have good news from July!

Here are the numbers of active property listings, those under contract, and sold properties for Single Family Homes in Jacksonville Beach, FL for the month of July 2008:

  • Active             319 active listings for Single Family Homes (no condos)
  • Pending               3 pending  (inspections & financing have been done)
  • Sold                 19 sold
  • New Listings       54

Once again, active listings are down, not substantially, but a good 5% decrease.

The pending listings this month are UP about 30%, which is a great indicator that we've hit the bottom of the market and prices will start to increase. It also shows there are qualified buyers in the market who can get from offer to closing table; with all the turmoil in the mortgage markets, that's an important consideration.

The sold listings are also UP about 31% from 2007 to this year. 

Here are the July 2007 numbers for comparison:

  • Active            337 active listings for Single Family Homes (no condos)
  • Pending             9 pending  (inspections/financing have been done)
  • Sold               13 sold
  • New Listings     55

It's a great time to buy - whether for a first time homebuyer or an investor.  I can show you the right home for your needs, that fits your lifestyle and budget.
