I recently did a bit of analysis on the condo market in Portland Maine.
My conclusion: Basicallly the current inventory is overpriced and we are on track to sell just about HALF the volume we saw in 2005, wow!
No huge surprises here given the economic and global climate, but I was a bit startled at the unrealistic expectations of many sellers still. There are currently about 200 condos on the market in Portland with a median asking price of 220K.
In 2008 the median sold price was 214K, not far off, but to date in 2009, the median price for a Portland Maine condo for sale was 184K, significantly less than 220K. Part of this figure is clearly the result of lower priced foreclosures and the first time home buyer market snapping up cheap listings, yet the median days on the market for this current inventory is 165, contrasting sharply with a median days on market of around 60 for the past 4 years sold condo transactions.

Yarmouth Maine residential real estate saw 7 transactions take place in October 2009 compared with 5 a year prior in October 2008. Median pricing clocked in at 275K compared with 239K in October 2008. Thus the median year over year pricing was up 13% and month over month was up 12%. This market is on the cusp of the slower mid coastal region and the more stable/active greater Portland region. Currently the residential market appears healthy.
