The Definition of Absorption Rate:
Number of weeks it takes to sell the current inventory at the present rate of sales. Knowing your area's Absorption Rate, helps to track trends. Understanding the market and where it is headed is part of our job as real estate professionals. Absorption rate is NOT an exact science. Figuring it is based on the premise that one will be looking for a TREND. It is advised to consistently do the numbers each month, to be able to track a trend.
A bit of an increase in sales this past month (September) which was a little surprise. Inventory is still high, prices are declining, but at a slower pace.

Highlands Reserve Homes for Sale
There is a possible Chinese drywall cure that may be just around the corner. New York based Sabre Technical Services, a biological hazard response company that has used chlorine dioxide to treat buildings contaminated with anthrax, may have an affordable and attractive solution to homes plagued with Chinese 
drywall.
Chlorine Dioxide has been known to deactivate sulfur compounds for some time. The question for Chinese drywall cleanup was if the gas would penetrate through the drywall and re-mediate the sulfur throughout structures. Recent tests in the Fort Myers area by Sabre indicate that with the proper application of chlorine dioxide gas, penetration is deep enough to neutralize the sulfur and deactivate it into sulfate, a harmless and non-toxic substance.
When applied, the gas does have bleaching effects, so residents are wise to remove all belongings from an infected house during the decontamination treatment. Estimated cost to clean up a structure are between $10-$15 per square foot. Treatment will take only a few days as compared to the previously expensive and time consuming procedures of removing all the drywall from a structure.
This method has great promise for homeowners affected with Chinese drywall. Currently the government as well as insurance companies are reviewing the process and it's effectiveness. Hopefully, no negative issues will arise and approval for this procedure will come quickly.
Getting ready for a big move? You can't begin preparing too soon, because the average move takes over 200 hours! Count on your real estate representative to provide advice and guidance during this seemingly monumental task.
Your first decision is whether to hire a moving company, or rent a moving van and ask friends and family for help. If you're using the pros, solicit quotes from several local companies who can visit your home and offer an accurate quote.
Next, begin sorting piles of items you'll want to sell in yard sales, donate to charities, or haul to the landfill. This is a great opportunity to give back to the community, and make a few bucks on the pieces you'll sell. Anything you eliminate now will lower moving costs later.
DO create an inventory of your belongings, in case you need to file an insurance claim for lost or damaged goods. Allow the professionals to do your packing, because if you don't, those items that you wrap and pack won't be covered by the mover's insurance policy.
Finally, invest in additional insurance with the movers and storage facility, if needed. It only costs about $10 for every $1,000 in high value items, so it's worth it for your peace of mind. Ask your agent for more details to make your move as stress-free as possible.

Whether you are looking to buy or sell Homes, Land or Condos in Stuart FL, Sewalls Point, Jensen Beach, Palm City, Hobe Sound, Hutchinson Island or Port Saint Lucie, Florida - My partner, Susan Maxwell and I, Gabe Sanders are the right choice!!
Gabe and Susan were the most professional and efficient agents I've ever had - AND I've had about 10 agents in the past 10 years. We had 4 agents try to sell our home for 2 years and Gabe and Susan sold it in two months. Darlene and Frank L. Jim and I began to search for our home in 2005. Our first agent was new to the business and was unable to handle our aggressive style. After a bad experience with her and her broker we decide to work with Susan and Gabe. Jim and I were hesitant at first because we were social acquaintances with Susan and we are difficult buyers with a long list of criteria. We are currently renovating our home. When we are done we will be looking for an investment property. We will be calling Susan since we now consider her 'Our Agent'. James & Lola C.

Susan was extremely persistent in our search for the ideal home. We viewed at least 10 homes on the market. She helped us narrow down exactly what we wanted. Susan was able to point out the hidden potential in our home and even gave us some Feng Shui tips. She helped us make the right decision for our family and a safe economic decision for the long term.

"I would like to commend you on your employee, Gabe Sanders. He has renewed my faith in real estate sales people.
If Gabe gives half the service to future customers that he gave to us, he will certainly compound the reputation of Premier Realty. A more honest, conscientious and diligent sales person I have never met. I am sure he will be one of your top performers in no time. I have already recommended him to friends and relatives.
We look forward to being part of the Martin County family Regards"
