Weston Single Family Home Sales – February 2012

Holly & Bob — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 20:04:28 +0000

56 single family homes sold in Weston during February 2012, compared to 23 single family homes during February 2011. This represented a 143% increase in sales vs the prior year. Meanwhile, inventory continued to decline. As os March 1, 2012, there were 268 active listings for sale compared to 298 on March 1, 2011. This represents a 10% decline in active inventory.

For homes under $1,000,000, there is only 4.4 months of inventory vs last year 8.0 months of inventory. As Realtors, we like to see an average of 6.0% of inventory. At that level of inventory it becomes a balanced market, where their is no advantage to the Seller or the Buyer. Any higher than 6.0% and it becomes more of a Buyer’s Market. Below 6.0 months of inventory, the advantage starts creeping toward the Seller when negotiating with a potential Buyer.

The market continues to be sluggish for homes listed over $1,000,000. To begin February 2012, there was 22.5 months of inventory, with only 2 sales in January, both between $1,500,000 – $1,999,999.
