Neptune Beach, FL

Here are the 2011 stats and 2010 for comparison -

2011

• 2 Homes Sold (September=3)
• Lowest price: $139,000 (September =$270,000)
• Highest price: $265,000 (September =$440,000)
• Shortest Days on Market: 13 (September =29)
• Longest Days on Market: 44 (September =428)

2010

3 homes sold (September =4)

• Lowest price: $59,900 (September =$81,700 )
• Highest price: $525,000 (September =$589,000)
• Shortest Days on Market: 16 (September =8)
• Longest Days on Market:1002 (September =170)

Sales are down 66% month over month, which is exactly what we saw in the September report. This is very similar with the decreases we are seeing across the area as we head out of the busy summer buying & selling season. Lowest sold home price is up a nice amount, (year over year) part of which is due to Neptune Beach being the smallest of the beaches communities and being a bit more stable than the other beaches. Days on market are down considerably, both month over month and year over year, which is an excellent sign of a stabilizing market.

Properly priced and properly presented properties are STILL selling – currently, the Jacksonville area has 9.70 months of inventory (single family housing supply), which is up a bit over the past few months, but not the highest figure of the year. Neptune Beach has 24.5 months of inventory as I write this post, which is the highest level since February 2011 This is really due to the decrease in sales, and most likely nothing more than that (as in, don’t worry).

You can see September's report here.

If you are ready to list your home, call me for a comparable market analysis to see what price range you should list in, and to learn more about what sets myself and Prudential Network Realty apart from the competition. Our home sales in our Atlantic Beach office are up 26% comparing 2010 to 2009, so we know how to sell homes.

If you or someone you know is considering a short sale, please have them contact me for a no-obligation confidential interview about their current situation and how best for them to move forward. I hold the Certified Distressed Property Expert, and am one of a mere 18,000 who do so – I can help salvage their credit, and their financial future.

2011

• 3 Homes Sold (August=9)
• Lowest price: $270,000 (August=$180,000)
• Highest price: $440,000 (August=$370,000)

• Highest price: $589,000 (August=$595,000)
• Shortest Days on Market: 8 (August=7)
• Longest Days on Market:170 (August=218)

Sales are down 66% month over month, HOWEVER, this is very similar with the decreases we are seeing across the area as we head out of the busy summer buying & selling season. Lowest sold home price is up a nice amount, part of which is due to Neptune Beach being the smallest of the beaches communities and being a bit more stable than the other beaches. Days on market is up, and that could be concerning; I will have to look into it more to be able to make sense of it.

You can see the August Report here.

Properly priced and properly presented properties are STILL selling – currently, the Jacksonville area has about 9 months of inventory (single family housing supply), which is the second lowest figure since September 2009, right now and homes can and do sell in very few days on market. Neptune Beach has 17 months of inventory as I write this post, which is the highest level since February 2011 This is really due to the decrease in sales, and most likely nothing more than that (as in, don’t worry).

2011

• 9 Homes Sold (July=7)

• Highest price: $370,000 (July=$1,380,000)

• Highest price: $595,000 (July=$363,000)
• Shortest Days on Market: 7 (July=3)

This is very consistent with the Jacksonville Beach home sales post I just wrote: there are so many great things about this post! Lowest sold home price is up a wee bit flat year over year, and month over month, an indicator the market is stabilizing (a good thing) and days on market is up slightly year over year, but not significantly. Home sales themselves are up 44% year over year.

Properly priced and properly presented properties are STILL selling – currently, the Jacksonville area has about 8.35 months of inventory (single family housing supply), which is the second lowest figure since September 2009, right now and homes can and do sell in very few days on market. Neptune Beach has 5.00 months of inventory as I write this post, which is the lowest level since September 2009.

I have not yet toyed with Foursquare, so the Check In option on Facebook on my new Droid is the alternative I have started using.

Checking In alerts people as to where you are, which can be good, bad or just ugly, depending on what you are doing, who you are with, etc. Seriously, there are times/places where you might not want to "publicize" where you are and what you are doing! This is a good story!

I decided to visit my favorite watering hold, The Sun Dog Diner, in Neptune Beach. This a locally owned, operated, and green restaurant/bar with live music every night of the week. Fabulous menu with sandwiches, burgers, famous meatloaf, salads, entrees, appetizers, full wine list, full bar - you should check it out the next time you are in the area.

My good friend Larry, who I had not seen in quite some time, came in and we talked for a quite a while, catching up on what we have been up to personally & professionally, his kids, his grandkids, you get the picture.

Towards the end of the evening, I told him I was glad we had this time to chat, since we don't see each other as often, and that is when he mentioned the reason he came up was because he saw I had Checked In at Sun Dog...how cool is that?
