Jacksonville Fl Real Estate Market Report December 2017
You’ll notice the list to sales price dropped in December, which means sellers took about 14% less than what they listed their house for. Oh and speaking of list price to sale price. That figure can be skewed to make an agent look like they sell their listings closer to the listing price, by using the list price the house was when it went under contract, instead of what the list price was when it was first listed. So if you have price drops and the agent isn’t using the original list price, it makes them look real good. That’s ridiculous and not showing the true picture. I want you to get the most money you can, so there are times I have went a little above what I recommended, because that’s what the seller wanted to try, and if it didn’t work out, we reduced. That makes my stats look horrible, but I don’t care about that. I care about trying to get my sellers the most money.
Step off the soapbox now….I can not believe there were less than 3k homes on the market in Jacksonville in December. Almost 40% sold!! That is making certain price points very hard to find and causes them to go quickly. Buyers, you need to be on your toes and have your financing together to win out over others.
