TOWNHOMES

Whether the Port St Lucie or Martin County real estate that is for sale is a primary residence or one that has been used as an actual investment to generate positive cash flow, there are some steps that will need to be taken before the house is ready for the local Port St Lucie real estate market. Looking for a realtor to sell your home in Port St Lucie. Do you need a realtor to sell your home in Stuart, Jensen Beach or Martin County

R3012652_101_12

Selling a home in the Martin County or Port St Lucie area for the first time can be just as troubling and just as difficult as purchasing a new home. While the experienced real estate investor may or may not have a regular realtor and enough experience to make the process easier to live with, it is never actually easy. For anybody who does not buy and sell real estate in the Treasure Coast on a regular basis, care should be taken not to fall into any common traps. We can help you price your Port St Lucie or Martin County home by supplying you with an up to date market analysis of properties in your area that are on the market or that have just sold. While the real estate can be prepared to whatever extent the current homeowner wishes, better prepping will often lead to faster home sales for more money

Florida’s existing home, condo sales up in September 2009

Florida’s existing home, condo sales up in September 2009

Big rebound in existing-home sales shows first-time buyer momentum. Read more.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Oct. 23, 2009 – Florida’s existing home sales rose in September, which marks more than a year (13 months) that sales activity has increased in the year-to-year comparison, according to the latest housing data released by Florida Realtors®. September’s statewide sales also increased over sales activity in August in both the existing home and existing condominium markets.

More Information on This Amazing Buy.

 Existing home sales rose 34 percent last month with a total of 14,419 homes sold statewide compared to 10,778 homes sold in September 2008, according to Florida Realtors. Statewide existing home sales last month increased 4.1 percent over statewide sales activity in August.
Florida Realtors also reported a 77 percent increase in statewide sales of existing condos in September compared to the previous year’s sales figure; statewide existing condo sales last month rose 8.9 percent over the total units sold in August.

 More Information.

All of Florida’s metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) reported increased existing home sales in September; all but one MSA also showed a gain in condo sales. A majority of the state’s MSAs have reported increased sales for 15 consecutive months.

Florida’s median sales price for existing homes last month was $142,000; a year ago, it was $174,900 for a 19 percent decrease. Housing industry analysts with the National Association of Realtors® (NAR) note that sales of foreclosures and other distressed properties continue to downwardly distort the median price because they generally sell at a discount relative to traditional homes. The median is the midpoint; half the homes sold for more, half for less.

The national median sales price for existing single-family homes in August 2009 was $177,500, down 12.1 percent from a year earlier, according to NAR. In Massachusetts, the statewide median resales price was $315,000 in August; in California, it was $292,960; in Maryland, it was $265,862; and in New York, it was $205,000.

NAR’s latest industry outlook notes positive signs in the housing sector, but adds that extension of the federal first-time homebuyer tax credit would help sustain a fragile recovery. “Now that the market is showing some momentum, we have an opportunity to achieve a more rapid and broader stabilization in home prices,” said NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun. The outlook for home sales and prices depends on whether the tax credit is extended, he said, describing it as “the best tool in our arsenal to encourage financially qualified buyers to stimulate the economy and help reduce the budget deficit.”

In Florida’s year-to-year comparison for condos, 5,088 units sold statewide last month compared to 2,870 units in September 2008 for a 77 percent increase. The statewide existing condo median sales price last month was $102,500; in September 2008 it was $153,500 for a 33 percent decrease. The national median existing condo price was $179,300 in August 2009, according to NAR.

Among the state’s smaller markets, the Pensacola MSA reported a total of 275 homes sold in September compared to 267 homes a year earlier for a 3 percent increase. The market’s existing home median sales price last month was $135,000; a year ago it was $146,900 for an 8 percent decrease.

 Ken is the best and together we found exactly what we were looking for! We were referred to Ken from our friends Mike and Janet after their great experience. Shopping long distance for the perfect house was not easy but Ken had the patience and humor to make it all work. He was always available to show us whatever properties, wherever and whenever we wanted. He had a great understanding of what we wanted and wouldn’t stop until we found it. He was always quick to respond to questions and inquiries. Throughout the whole transaction, he did whatever it took to get it done! We love our new home! Thanks, Ken!!

“Ken Duncan would probably be excellent at any job, but lucky for you if you’re looking for a house in Port St Lucie area, his job is to help you and he certainly helped me. He’s competent, warm and committed to the Port St Lucie community, where he seems to know the area well. Despite his success and numerous clients, I always felt as though I was the only one on his schedule. He was available evenings and weekends – whenever I wanted to look at a house, and after we made a successful offer, whenever I had a question about the process Ken was there.

Ken introduced us to the neighborhood I ultimately chose. He held our hands through the offer process and several complications that arose prior to closing. And he continues to be a source of contacts and advice as we settle into our house.

Thank you Ken you found the perfect house for my daughter and me.”

To anyone buying property in the Port St. Lucie, Stuart, Jensen Beach and surrounding areas: Don’t waste your time with other realtors. Go to the best. KEN DUNCAN. After communicating with Ken for a few months, I (and a friend of mine)set a date to come from Mass to Florida to buy homes. We only had a few days to look and Ken surpassed all our expectations. Ken spent virtually four days and nights finding us both homes. This is not counting the time he spent prior to our arrival setting up appointments for us to see houses. Ken showed unfailing patiences and desire to find us the homes we now own. FYI: take his advise on mortgage companies, insurance and othe information. You can’t go wrong!

We contacted Ken Duncan realtor regarding an equestrian property in South Florida. As we are from Switzerland we figured this to be an extremly difficult transaction to complete. Though we have not yet proceded with the purchase Ken is still supplying us with properties and hopefully in the not to distant future we will go ahead with our purchase. Than you so much Ken for all your help and information on the area.

We had a great stay at your vacation rental in City Place.We were really unsure about staying there as there were quite a few cheaper condos available in other areas but everything you said was true.
Staying at City Place was like staying at a resort, everything we could have possibly wanted was right on our door step. To bad Disney could not build a park in the area and then a vacation rental in City Place would be heaven.
Thanks again
