Quick Daytona Beach Real Estate Market Update
It’s been awhile since I’ve posted, but I should be back on a normal schedule now. I’ve been very busy with clients for the entire year and that continues into next month with plenty of out of town clients coming in to see properties. I sure hope it doesn’t stop there.
Sales
Sales continue strong with 329 properties sold through the Daytona Beach MLS last month. As of today, over 250 properties have sold and we still have over a week to go. This year is very much ahead of last year in total sales. Through the end of June, 1735 Daytona Beach homes and condos were sold. Last year during the same period, 1433 homes and condos sold. This is a positive trend.
First Time Home Buyers
The clock is ticking. The $8,000 First Time Home Buyers Credit expires on December 1. If you have been waiting, the time is now. Here’s why. It is taking a looooong time for banks to respond on short sales - sometimes months. If you are financing, the process can consume a long time. For our purposes let’s say it will take 60-90 days to close once you make an offer. If it takes another month to find the right properties, we are now right up against the December 1 deadline.
If you are eligble for this credit (you haven’t owned at home in the past three years), now is the time to save a lot of money. I urge you to call me now to be safe.
Service
I work with my son David and I think we make a good pair. David has over five years experience as a Realtor® and knows the ins and outs of short sales and foreclosures. We work together to provide you top level service. David can be reached as 386-566-4169. As always, you can reach me at 386-566-7503 for no pressure, no hassle service.
