Summary:
Over a half BILLION dollars of real estate has closed on Marco Island during the first nine months of 2013. Whew… Without question the appetite for Marco Island real estate was as strong as it’s ever been during the past three quarters, average prices were up, dollar value was up, median prices were up.
However, the decrease in inventory has resulted in a bit of a let up over the last couple of months and our break-neck pace is easing. Bank appraisals are keeping prices fairly in check and interest rates are still excellent with the 30 year fixed rate at about 4.5{b625ae8fc1ab51a1b4bc3bb9ab54ef8d28b38ca759cb0171c638fe7e178ebb03}.
Other indicators of note are the average days a property is on the market is down about 10{b625ae8fc1ab51a1b4bc3bb9ab54ef8d28b38ca759cb0171c638fe7e178ebb03} from 299 to 269 and the list price to sales price ratio is up 2{b625ae8fc1ab51a1b4bc3bb9ab54ef8d28b38ca759cb0171c638fe7e178ebb03} from 90{b625ae8fc1ab51a1b4bc3bb9ab54ef8d28b38ca759cb0171c638fe7e178ebb03} to 92{b625ae8fc1ab51a1b4bc3bb9ab54ef8d28b38ca759cb0171c638fe7e178ebb03} (this means the average amount “negotiated” is 8{b625ae8fc1ab51a1b4bc3bb9ab54ef8d28b38ca759cb0171c638fe7e178ebb03}.)
