Local Home Sales Slowing but Maintain Record Breaking Pace

Residential real estate sales in the Fort Collins area slowed during August, recording a 5.7% increase in the number of closed home sales. This is way off the pace set during the first seven months when there was a 17.6% increase in sales but the 405 closed sales is still the third best month this year and if we compare it to just a couple of years ago it is a 32% improvement so the trend is definitely up.

The increase in the selling price also slowed with the August average of $276,842 representing a 6.6% increase over last year but again, it is the third highest monthly average this year and 6.6% is certainly more sustainable than the 11.6% increase recorded in July.

One of the reasons for the lower home sales in August was the lack of

Pam & Dave Pettigrew Certified Residential Specialists

new construction. There were just 46 new homes sold in August, just over 10% of the total sales.

We had been on a pace where new home sales had improved to 15% of the market, compared to 20 to 30% in the early 2000’s and the drop was unexpected and unwanted. We currently have 133 new homes under construction but this is way below what we need to improve the supply.

The total inventory of listings at the end of August was 1,327 homes but 430 were under

contract and 133 under construction so the net standing inventory was 764 homes. Based on the average monthly sales of 352 homes over the last eight months, the inventory is a scant 2.2 month supply. A normal inventory would be in excess of 2,000 homes so we are a long way from a balanced market.

Typically home sales at the end of August account for 72% of annual sales so we are on a pace for 3,900 sales in 2013.

This would be within

5% of the highest sales ever but coupled with a projected average selling price of maybe $276,000 the total volume would exceed $1 billion for the first time ever. And the big difference in the market is that when there were 4,100 sales in 2004, there were 842 new homes included. At the current pace, there will be less than 500 new homes sold this year. If the supply was there, we believe the market could have absorbed an extra 300 to 400 new homes this year,

INVESTING Retirement Spots Ripe for Investment Top retirement spots provide variety of opportunities for investors As more Baby Boomers head into retirement, cities that attract retirees could be opportune spots for real estate investors, according to a recent report from RealtyTrac, real estate data source.

From a list of 40 cities

with a population of 33 percent or more retirees, RealtyTrac identified the “Top 15 Retirement Hot Spots for Real Estate Investing” by looking at various data, including annual percent change in home prices as of May 2013.

Other factors included average temperature, annual chance of sun-

shine and the “cap rate,” which shows whether or not rentals in the market generally have a positive cash flow.

Of the top 15 cities, seven are in Florida: Dunnellon, Naples, North Fort Myers, Punta Gorda, Sun City Center, Venice and Orange City.

Other popular states are Arizona (Sun City

and Green Valley) and California (Ranch Mirage and Seal Beach). The remaining cities listed are Hot Springs Village, Ark.; Douglassville, Pa.; Florence, Ore.; and East Hampton, N.Y. Daren Blomquist, vice president of RealtyTrac, says, “Even if you’re not retiring in the immediate future, they’re good

places to invest and eventually live in yourself.”

In some locations, especially Florida where home prices dropped very low during the recession, “[These homes] are good for long-term investment rather than the ‘fix and flip.’ Over time, that home is going to appreciate in value, especially in markets where the See INVESTING, page 10

population is going to increase over the next 15 continued from page 6 years,” Blomquist says.

He points out that since many Baby Boomers were born between 1946 and 1954, adding 65 years to that means most will retire between 2011 and 2019 – suggesting strong future growth in retiree-friendly communities.

Hampton, N.Y., Blomquist says. “[They are] not as good for rental property but more appropriate for investors looking to fix and flip. You get a bigger profit with a single flip,” because home prices are higher.

Overall, Blomquist says the report shows there are “different types of investing opportunities” in retirement hot spots that are suitable for different types of investors. — Bettina Chang © CTW Features

Pondering Parking

you come home, you will not enjoy living there.”

Single-Family Homes As a rule of thumb, a property should include at least one space for each vehicle of the buyer.

In an ideal situation, there should be one parking spot – whether it is indoor or outdoor – for each bedroom in their prospective residence, which makes it convenient for visitors as well as children who will eventually drive.

“For example, a two-bedroom unit should have two spots, minimum, and there should always be ample guest parking,” says Karyn Anjali Glubis, broker with Tampa, Fla.-based The Real Estate Expert LLC. “But some communities do not allow you to park on the street, which limits the ability for guests to [visit]. It’s important to know these limits.”

When it comes to single-family homes and townhomes, consider your garage needs carefully.

“Can you gain access to the garage directly from the home without going out into the elements, and is the garage large enough to house all the things you don’t want to have

Prospective homebuyers should seek property with space for their vehicles and easy access for visitors, too They say buying a home is the most important financial transaction of your life – followed closely by the purchase of a new car.

At the intersection of those two is an important but sometimes overlooked factor for homebuyers: parking accommodation.

The prospective buyer should seek parking in a safe, convenient location with ample space for guest vehicles, says Cher Castillo Freeman, principal broker at SKY Real Estate in Washington, D.C. “Having a parking space that is off-street [on the property] adds value to a home and allows the owner easy access to it. Parking that is on the street but easily attained allows easy access and is a good selling point when the owner decides to move,” Freeman says. “Don’t fall in love with a property without examining the parking situation, because if you have to fight for a space every time

ing space per unit, and often they charge extra for that space, says Amy McGee, real estate agent with Coldwell Banker United in Houston.

Buildings may offer additional spaces for purchase.

Condo building parking spaces can be assigned (sometimes labeled “designated”) or deeded. With deeded parking, the unit’s owner is given fee-simple ownership of a designated space, usually for a premium fee. The owner is required to pay taxes on that space, which is bought and sold like any other type of property.

Lastly, be sure the condo garage or parking lot on the property is well maintained, clean and secure.

to store in the house?” asks Patricia Cliff, author of “The Art of Selling Real Estate” (Booktrope Editions, 2012).

“And how easy is it to back out of the garage onto a busy thoroughfare?”

Ensure that the garage is structurally sound and wide and tall enough for your current vehicles. Also, if you plan to regularly occupy the garage for hobbies or recreational use, it should be well insulated and equipped with heating and air conditioning for comfort.

Cliff urges buyers to consider problems and changes that could occur in the future. For instance, the garage should be above the floodplain to protect against extreme weather and flooding.

Ease of installation for plug-in electric or hybrid cars may also be a factor, she says.
