Prescott Real Estate Market Update
January 20th, 2010 categories: Market Update, Prescott Market Statistics, Real Estate News
The chart below is the absorption rate for site built, single family homes in the City of Prescott. Absorption rates are a calculation of how long it will take for all of the homes on market to be sold, or absorbed, at the current rate of sales.
The data used came from the Prescott MLS and is deemed reliable, but not guaranteed.
| Price Range | Residential Properties On The Market | Closed Sales Last Month | Absorption Rate # Of Months It Will Take To Sell |
|---|---|---|---|
| $300,000 and below | 253 | 34 | 7.4 Months |
| $300,001 to $500,000 | 251 | 16 | 15 Months |
| $500,001 to $800,000 | 135 | 10 | 13 Months |
| $800,001 to $100,000,000 | 96 | 1 | 96 Months |
| $100,000,001 and above | 46 | 0 | 46 Months |
| Totals | 781 | 61 | 12.8 Months |
The absorption rate has gone up slightly over the past few months, meaning it may take a little longer to sell a home. The listing inventory continues to shrink giving buyers fewer choices, yet homes that are over prices continue to be overlooked. There are smart buyers out there.
For those who still wish to take advantage of the home buyer tax credit, you must have an accepted, binding contract by April 30, 2010, and must close escrow by July 1, 2010.
Call us with any questions, we welcome your comments. Have a great day.

The Right Asking Price Makes All The Difference
January 19th, 2010 categories: Home Sellers, Real Estate News
This Real Estate market is for serious sellers only. I talk with a lot of home sellers. Some are thinking about selling, some have their home on the market right now. Most conversations with home sellers are similar, and the conversation usually ends by discussing price.
There are several ways to determine the value of a property; appraisal, tax accessor, replacement cost, comparable sales and so on. But if you are trying to sell your home and need to sell, there is only one opinion that determines market value and that is the opinion of buyers.
Todays market value is determined by the expectations of buyers. Todays buyers are educated as to market conditions and they do their homework before ever contacting a Realtor. They understand price per square foot, average selling price and are not willing to pay inflated prices.
If your home is on the market and you are not getting many showings, or if you don’t have an offer after 60 days on the market, the buyers are telling you something. Your home is overpriced.
A Real Estate Agent that knows the market conditions will be able to help guide home sellers to the correct listing price and ultimately a successful sale.
If you would like to discuss market conditions and the value of your home, call our office at 928.778.4492. We will be happy to provide you with a no obligation market analysis.

Calling St. Joseph
June 18th, 2009 categories: Beyond Real Estate, Real Estate News
Over the years, home sellers have tried every concieveable practice out there in an effort to sell their home faster. Meditations, home selling dances, burning sage, clearing spirits from the house and of course, calling upon every Realtor’s favorite Patron Saint, St. Joseph.
St. Joseph was the earthly father of Jesus and husband of Mary, another favorite Saint of mine. Joseph is the patron saint of workers, carpenters and families. It has been a long tradition of all faiths that burying a statue of St. Joseph in your yard, or a potted plant if you don’t have a yard, will help your home sell faster.
Calling upon St. Joseph to help you sell your home is simple and the kits are readily available on many web sites and in stores. Simply bury the statue in your yard 6 to 12 inches deep, upside down facing the house, the location may vary as long as you can find the statue when the home sells. The final step is saying a prayer to St. Joseph. Step by step instruction are included with the statue.
I believe the true power of burying the St. Joseph statues lies in your faith that your home is going to sell quicker with his help.
Having St. Joseph on your team is a great start, but one other thing that will really make a difference is pricing your home competitively and hiring an experienced Realtor.
Make necessary repairs before putting your home on the market and make sure your home is in saleable condition.
If you would like to discuss market conditions or if you have questions about selling your home, please call us at 928.778.4492.
