KENDALL COUNTY REAL ESTATE SALES SHOWING IMPROVEMENT – JAN-APR (2007-2011)

KC

Residential Real Estate Sales for the first 4 months of 2011 improved slightly over last year. 84 Sales vs. 81 last year. Also showing improvement was average sales price which increased from $314,055 to $319,152.

KC1

2007 was the height of the market.  The market is currently down about 40% from that point.  Sales are taking more than twice the time to sell and are selling at a deeper discount from original list price than that time period.

KC2

KC3

KC4

Thankfully, the sales curve is finally on an upswing. We have noticed that the number of distressed properties are decreasing. Inventory, however, is increasing daily.

It will be interesting to see how this year plays out … whether sales will grow stronger and eat up the inventory or whether inventory will not be absorbed and a “glut” by year end will create more distress situations.  We remain optimistic … but are ever watching the market to stay abreast of the situation.  For all of your real estate needs, give us a call.

Images of Fall in the Hill Country

by Benjamin Brooks

In come the cool damp mornings that awaken the mind,

the hills display their fall wardrobe of color,

the sunsets are everything that is cozy,

Like a blazing cup of hot chocolate

Excitement stirs for the holidays

JANUARY TO SEPTEMBER SALES UP IN COMFORT, TEXAS

Increases in sales of Farm and Ranch and Lots/Acreage provided the stimulus for total real estate sales increases in Comfort, Texas so far this year. Looks like hill country land is coming back in vogue again!

On the other hand, residential sales are down so far this year. As I quickly look through the residential sales so far in 2010 (14 so far compared to 16 last year during the same time period), I am reminded that many of them were at deep discounts from original list price. The average list price to sales price ratio was 88.4%

ComfortJantoJune0910As for the outlook for THE ENTIRE HILL COUNTRY for the balance of the year, here are some things to consider:

Tax rates are set to increase next year. Current land owners: This year may be an opportune time to realize gains on real estate at lower tax rates.

There is currently a “glut” of residential properties on the market.  Since there is so much competition, homes that are “average” just aren’t selling.  Prices are being reduced time and time again in order to get market attention. As such, we believe that by end of year there will be some great “buys” on homes that need a little TLC.

We’d love to serve you whatever your real estate needs are.  We work from Leon Springs to Mountain Home, Bandera to Johnson City.  Give us a call!
