Hernando County Real Estate - Market Report October 2008

11-25-08
Chris Frantz
A look back at the October 2008 market activity for the Hernando County Real Estate market shows the average sales price for a single family home in Hernando County dropped to the lowest in since I started tracking. The number of homes sold during the month dropped after a jump in September. In comparison between listing price and sales price of homes closed, the variance held under eleven thousand during the month. The absorption rate that calculates how long it will take to exhaust all current listings rose to twenty one months after falling to the lowest of the year in September. A slight increase in the price per square foot in the cost of living space, provides a snapshot of dollar value of living space regardless of features. As the market continues to make changes, buyers have more opportunity to negotiate for a home they want and sellers will have to adjust their expectations for profit to the new reality. The following information provides an overview of current and past conditions in the Hernando County Real Estate market. It includes existing residential home sale in Spring Hill, Brooksville, Ridge Manor, Weeki Wachee, Hernando Beach and all communities in Hernando County. The information provided here is general and may not reflect the same trend in every community.

In the constantly changing real estate market buyers and sellers need to ensure they have every advantage. Being comfortable and knowledgeable with the process is important to understand the entire real estate transaction. One step is to ensure you understand common terms that are used when buying, selling or obtaining a mortgage. To assist you with the real estate process, I am sharing real estate terms and the meaning.

Basis point - A basis point is 1/100 hundredth of one percentage point. For example, the difference between a loan at 8.25 percent and a mortgage at 8.37 percent is 12 basis points.

and

Partial release - A clause found in a mortgage, which directs the mortgagee to release certain parcels from the lien of the blanket mortgage upon the payment of a certain sum of money.

and

Capital improvement - Any structure, which is erected as a permanent improvement to real property; any improvement, which is made to extend the useful life of a property, or to add to the value of the property.

Cap rate (capitalization rate) - The percentage selected for use in the income approach to valuation of improved property. The cap rate is designed to reflect the recapture of the original investment over the economic life of the improvement, to give the investor an acceptable rate of return (yield) on the original investment, and to provide for the return on borrowed capital.

and

Certificate of sale - A document issued at a judicial sale, which entitles the buyer to receive a deed after court confirmation of the purchase of the property.
