I have been tracking the Orlando and central Florida
real estate market all of my real estate career..... that
is 13 years of information my clients can depend on!

From statistics in the marketplace now, the balance bet-
ween buyers and sellers at at almost a balance. Believe
me when I say that balance RARELY stays for long! When
the current market changed into the bearish buyers market
we have had for the last several years, the change happened
in a matter of about 2 weeks! People did not realize it until
it was too late.

People who bought homes in the final months of that awesome
sellers market were left holding onto homes that were WAY
over priced because of the feeding frenzy created by the low
interest rates and the deceptive teaser rates mortgage companies
and loan officers were advertising. When homes stopped appric-
iating, home owners were shocked and were left with large bala-
ncesheets and were upside down in what they owed verses what
their homes were worth.

Home owners take note of these latest statisctics:

• There is just over an 8 month supply of homes for sale
  in the Orlando and central Florida real estate market;
  when the market has 6 months of supply it is considered
  by housing pundits to be balanced between buyers and
  sellers.
• In June, REALTORS® sold over 43% more homes than in
  June of last year, making the area’s year-to-date sales
  an increase of almost 44%. If that is not a rebound, I don't
  know what is!!
  
• 46% of those completed transactions were homes in "Special
  circumstances" ~~ Bank owned, Sold as-is, corporate owned,
  in foreclosure, in pre-foreclosure, or sold as a short sale. That
  HIGH NUMBER is reported in EVERY single market report I do.
  I always point out the DEALS to buyers of central Florida real
  estate, so YOU can SAVE MONEY!
  
• There is more than double the number of homes currently
  awaiting closings (7,230) than in June of last year (3,329).

There are currently almost 18,000 residential homes available for purchase through the Orlando Regional MLS. Inventory fell from last month. Compared to last year, the June 2009 inventory level is just over 27% lower than it was in June 2008.

Here are links to market reports I have done in the past AND you can search the Orlando Regional MLS for yourself. You can also set up automatic searches and have properties sent to you when homes that fit the criteria you specify come up for sale. ALL this is FREE information to you from me.

The central Florida real estate market is continuing to florish,
according to sales numbers contrasting this year from last year.

• 44% MORE sales have been made year to date over last year.
• 38% more homes sold in May this year than in 2008.

Driving this sales wave are the homes in "Special Circumstances":

• 51% of homes sold this year were bank owned or
  "distress sales". The Knights Team reports on these homes
  in city and community market reports every week.
• This has driven the median home price in central Florida
  down to $130,000.
• The median price for "normal" homes being sold is $165,000
  (Homes NOT being sold in distress situations), so home owners
  who sell their home and do not tap into their equity should make
  a good return on thier investment, assuming they have been in
  their home for around 5 years or more.

Pending sales are also WAY up over last year at this time:

• There are over 6,600 homes currently pending to close, as
  opposed to about 3,200 last May.
  
• 3,400 of those homes under contract in May of this year were
  put into agreements in that month alone, which is a forward
  looking indicator of an further imporoving of the central Florida
  real estate market.

The first time homebuyer affordability index is WAY over 100%, which means any person making the reported median state income of $35,600 or more can purchase a home from the over 6,500 homes advertized in the regional central Florida MLS for $155,000 or less.

The Knights Team has contact information that can get you money for a downpayment and closing costs that you DO NOT PAY BACK. Just contact us for more information (guidelines and rules apply, ask for more information).
