Bluffs Ocean South – Ocean Views – Rentals and Sales

This week we had 78 homes close, up from 48 last week and near our record again. We have had several weeks this season with nearly 80 homes sold in a week.  We should have another near record week again next week.  The number of homes for sale continues to drop down to 2448 from a high of 3100 back in 2009. Many agents that were never busy before are telling me their business has picked up. 44 of the homes sold this week were cash buyers. If thinking you are a cash buyer is going to make a big difference in the deal you are going to get you can see more then 50% of the people are cash buyers.

The average DOM for homes sold this week was 159 and 23 of the 78 homes were on the market for less then 100 days.

On the other end of the spectrum we are seeing homes that have been on the market for hundreds of days selling. Why? Inventory levels are going down and that is all that is left.

I had a great conversation with an investor today who runs a REIT fund and has bought 130 properties around the country in the past year. He has been coming to Jupiter for 20 plus years and his comment was all I’m seeing is really nice places and not many of them are for sale or crap.  He said this area is holding much better then most of the other places he has visited.  He said Jupiter is still a beautiful place and it hasn’t changed much in the past 20 years.

Take a look in the solds this week and you will be surprised at some of the prices some of the homes sold for. The Buffs home with a pool sold for $470,000.  477 Ocean Ridge in Juno Beach, a 3 bedroom townhouse sold for $500,000. No water views just a newer townhome that was walking distance to the beach. This was an incredible strong number for this community. 127 Castries Dr in Abacoa sold for $375,000 in just 35 days.

4161 US Highway 1 A1 in Beachcomber had been on the market for 1273 days and sold for $252,000 just a tad under the $269,000 asking price. Why did it finally sell. Nothing left to buy in the community.
