Inventory is starting to rise and sales staying about the same which push conditions to favor buyers.  This means it is not the time to overprice your home if you are thinking of selling.  There’s a misconception that pricing higher so you have more room to negotiate is a good strategy, but it’s totally the opposite.  Study the market, compare condition of sold homes and come up with a reasonable price.  Reasonable priced homes at market pricing are selling for more and faster.

The Market Action Index, which we provide in our weekly “real-time” market reports, dropped one point to 22 which shows a buyer’s advantage. 

The Market Action Index has been trending lower for several weeks while prices have remained relatively stable. If inventory continues to grow relative to demand however, it is likely that we will see downward pressure on pricing.

Keystone Point House of The Month

This month, The Miamism Sales Team recommends the waterfront home at 13025 Arch Creek Ter.  This 1959 home has great bones and has updates, with 4 bedrooms / 3 bathrooms and 3,747 SF of living space, a 9,375 SF lot and 75′ of water frontage.  We recommend this house because of pricing – at the adjusted square foot of 2.997 via tax records, this home is priced at $417/SF – this gives you room to negotiate and fix up aesthetics to any buyer’s liking.  FYI – tax roll shows actual area of 3,747 SF, so you also have a big garage to play with.
