Over the Memorial Day weekend I took some friends out on the boat for some swimming and sightseeing.  Being a realtor, one of my favorite things to do is to tour the Coral Gables waterways and see the homes from a different perspective.   Yesterday we decided to hit the "back-country" of Cocoplum.  While the homes on Tahiti Beach have direct Bay views and are obviously more prestigious, the homes that are located on the canals have a serenity and peacefulness about them that is hard to find in Miami.  These homes offer views of the lush mangrove trees, a bit of Florida wildlife, and the serene waters you see in the photo above.  Although we didn't happen to see any this trip, it is not uncommon to see the whiskers of a manatee poking his head up for a breath of fresh air, or a great Eg...

Last night I got a call from John Seidel of Coldwell Banker.  He asked me to stop by his Broker's Open House in Snapper Creek Lakes today and assured me that his listing was a "must-see".  I have to say that John did not let me down, it really is a spectacular home with a special history. Let me start out with my first impressions of the property: the home is located on an extremely large lot with Fairchild-esque landscaping (not surprising as it was designed by Raymond Jungles), it offers sweeping views of the garden from every window, large spacious living areas, extra wide hallways, beautiful keystone terrace and pool area and a gorgeous courtyard entryway.   The home was designed by Robert Bradford Brown and is situated on an angle in order to best capture the light in every room.  ...

We have fewer and fewer clients who are interested in buying foreclousres these days.  In my opinion, the negatives outweigh the positives for a typical buyer.   First, you usually have to pay with cash.  Second,  foreclosures are poorly maintained and are missing appliances which can be discouraging.   Finally, if the house is priced below market value you must be willing to put in an offer on the spot which makes buyers nervous. Lets take a look at the Coral Gables foreclosure market in 2010: There have been 17 foreclosures sold. Only 4 have sold above list price. Average selling price: $442,000 Average Sale/List Price Ratio: 93% Average Sale Price Per Square Foot: $177.00 (The rest of Coral Gables is at $280.00) Sales Prices range from $615,000 to $63,500 There are currently only 7 f...

Taking a look at the most recent statistics for Coral Gables real estate it seems that the market has stabilized.  Currently inventory levels are down, the number of home sales is up and prices remain flat. The attached chart shows inventory and sale levels for the past 3 years.  Inventory Levels Coral Gables has 11% less homes for sale than it did back in 2007.   The absorption rate (the amount of time it takes to sell all of our inventory) is down to 13 months (we saw figures as high as 45 months back in 2007).   Experts say that a neutral market has an absorption rate of 4 to 6 months while anything less than 4 months is a seller's market and anything more than 6 months is a buyer's market.   Lower inventory is likely a result of 2 contributing factors.  First, many people are under ...

The U.S. housing market has witnessed its smallest annual increase in foreclosure activity in four years last month. Foreclosure filings were reported on over 300,000 homes in the month of February, that's approximately 2 percent decline from January but an increase from last year. February represents the 12th consecutive month with more than 300,000 foreclosure filings. The slight monthly decrease can be linked to the HAMP program. This has worked to slow the pace of troubled mortgages from going into foreclosure, lenders have been attempting to determine if borrowers qualify for government assistance. Unfortunately there are a number of forces that are working to push foreclosures higher. A major indicator that we all should keep on eye on is the the sluggish labor market which isn't ...
