Beverly Months of Single Family Inventory March 2008

Kristal  Pooler -  North Shore & Cape Ann  : Real Estate Agent in Gloucester, MA

The amount of competing inventory affects a property's price.

If there is a lot of competing inventory, then pricing will be lower than if there is little competing inventory.

The report shows the number of months it will take to sell off the current inventory of active listings if the rate of sale remains constant.

Condo Inventory for Beverly Feb 2008

Kristal  Pooler -  North Shore & Cape Ann  : Real Estate Agent in Gloucester, MA

By comparing sales over the last year with active condo listings, one can get an idea of how long to expect a particular unit to take to sell. It is increasingly important for Sellers to sharpen their offering by making it the most desireable unit within a particular price band.

Absorption Rates - Beverly MA February 2008

Kristal  Pooler -  North Shore & Cape Ann  : Real Estate Agent in Gloucester, MA

The absorption rate is the rate of sale per month stated as a percentage.
For Example, if the absorption rate is 8%, then 8 out of 100 properties for sale sold that month.

This report shows the underlying strength of the market by comparing the percentage of "For Sale Properties" that sold in the prior
period to the current period. This report detects imbalances between the supply and demand for real estate.

The absorption rate is affected by the: number of units that sold and the number of units for sale.

If the absorption rate is rising, the market demand for real estate is improving and if it is falling, the market demand is
deteriorating. (credit to IMAX Web Solutions)

I recently posted a blog on the advantages and power of video and especially on how YouTube is rapidly becoming my favorite medium for marketing.

Well, here's another sample of the power of that site and a way to promote yourself and/or your clients' properties.

Expect to see a lot more real estate marketing on YouTube in 2008.
