Baldwin County Has A Good 2011 In Real Estate

Baldwin County & Alabama Coastal MLS*: Observations for the Month of December 2011

Year end Summary:

	TOTAL	NEW	USED	New Avg price	Used Avg price	All Avg Price	Total $ Sales
2010	3,788	360	3,428	$198,008	$201,010	$200,781	$760,995,789
2011	4,392	322	4,070	$215,567	$200,589	$201,504	$887,630,802
% change	15.95%	-10.56%	18.73%	8.87%	-0.21%	0.36%	16.64%

The above chart illustrates, 2011 was a very substantial improvement over 2010. New Home sales were off due to lack of supply and the heavy competition with the used market. Prices remain under pressure.

Monthly Results:

Dollar sales this month decreased 2% to $57,553,203 from November’s $58,582,263. This is 15% below December last year at $67,350,226. (Sect A p.2). The 12 month moving average line of sales flattened out once again. Inventories have been coming down quite dramatically. Unit sales have recovered to normal levels. Dollar sales still lag reflecting fewer high end sales and lower prices. This situation is starting to reverse, with more high end homes selling. Still, it is unlikely that prices will increase for a while. 

On a unit basis, sales of all houses declined 8% to 297 this month vs. 322 last month, which is 9% down from last year’s 325.

Used Home sales declined 10% to 272 this month vs. 303 last month, which is down 8% from last year’s 296 (Sect A p.18). New Home sales were 25 this month vs 19 last month. Low sales of New homes reflects intense competition from existing, and the shutdown of new construction.

New listings for New homes decreased to 34 from 57 in November. Used houses New listings decreased to 422 from 512 in November with net inventory down.

The absolute number of Used Active homes on the market, which had a slight peak mid-summer of ‘09, has once again been improving. In December, there were 3,461 Active Used homes, a reduction from 4,004 in November. The New home market, which peaked in December 2006 at 2,144 Active, now sits at 317.

The Absorption rate for New homes was 12 months of inventory for December vs. 14 in November. The Absorption rate for Used homes was 10 months of inventory for December vs. 12 in November. Over the last four years the drop in months of inventory for Used homes has been steady and impressive from 25 months plus in December 2008 to 10 months this December.

Average sales price for all homes has been stable for the past year. For New units, prices decreased to $192,034 from $219,064 last month. (Sect A p.14). Average Used home prices increased to $193,943 from $179,604 in November.

Average Days On Market for New Sold properties in December was 186 this month vs. 174 last month. Days On Market for Used was 169 this month vs. 190 last month.

While we have developed some interesting projections for the Real Estate Market in the Statewide, Birmingham and Huntsville markets, the numerous events on the coast such as the oil spill and several tropical storms, make the methods we used in the other markets unsuitable for the coast.

Year to Date Residential Sales On the Alabama Coast Surprisingly Strong

­­Baldwin County & Alabama Coastal MLS*: Observations for the Month of September 2011 

Dollar sales this month decreased 15% to $75,465,744 from August’s $88,583,253. This is 25% above September last year at $60,594,052 when sales were impacted by the oil spill and the tax credit expiration (Sect A p.2). The 12 month moving average line of sales is quite clearly on an upwards tilt. Year to date sales are up 20% to $698,334,308 vs $584,097,053 last year. Unit sales are up 18% to 3,414 vs. 2,903 last year. On a 9 month basis only 2004 and 2005 exceeded this unit volume. While inventories are high, unit sales have recovered to normal levels. Dollar sales still lag reflecting fewer high end sales and lower prices. Given the inventory level it is unlikely that prices will see much recovery for a while.

For the last year, the twelve month moving average line of dollar sales is trending up. On a unit basis, sales of all houses declined 13% to 364 this month vs. 418 last month, which is 31% up from last year’s 277.

Used Home sales declined 15% to 331 this month vs. 390 last month, which is up 35% from last year’s 245 (Sect A p.18). New Home sales were 33 this month vs 28 last month. Low sales of New homes reflects intense competition from existing, and the shutdown of new construction.

New listings for New homes increased to 42 from 66 in August. Used houses New listings decreased to 526 from 683 in August with net inventory still down.

August Alabama Coastal Real Estate Sales Encouraging

Baldwin County & Alabama Coastal Areas MLS*: Observations for the Month of August 2011

Dollar sales this month increased 13% to $87,098,253 from July’s $77,284,985. This is 40% above August last year at $62,166,514 when sales were impacted by the oil spill and the tax credit expiration (Sect A p.2). The 12 month moving average line of sales is quite clearly on an upwards tilt.

The chart in Section A p.18 has been showing substantial inventory reduction for a year, but not so much from sales as people not listing properties. The reduction in Active listings will probably help the market somewhat. Inventories remain very high. Used inventory is now hovering about 4,000, a full 2,000 below August 2008, but the sales level has also shrunk dramatically. We did not see a normal inventory build-up during the summer. The number of Active listings continues to drop, which is positive (more below).

The 12 month moving average line of unit sales for Used homes had a pronounced upward slope through April 2010. But with the spill, it had been showing a slight downward trend. Now, for the last year, the line is trending up. On a unit basis, sales of all houses improved 2% to 416 this month vs. 406 last month, which is 15% up from last year’s 362.

In the under $100,000 price range there has been an unusual pick up in activity over the last six months going from 60-80 sales per month to 100-120 per month. It almost appears that some entity is buying up these lower priced properties? At the other end, 12 homes over $900,000 sold which is a nice increase.

Used Home sales improved up 9% to 388 this month vs. 373 last month, which is up 31% from last year’s 296 (Sect A p.18). New Home sales were 28 this month vs 28 last month. The low number of sales of New homes reflects the intense competition from existing, and a virtual shutdown of new construction.

New listings for New homes increased to 66 from 51 in July. Used houses New listings decreased to 675 from 697 in July with net inventory still down.

The absolute number of Used Active homes on the market, which had a slight peak mid-summer of ‘09, has once again been improving. In August, there were 4,010 Active Used homes, a reduction from 4,491 in July. The New home market, which peaked in August 2006 at 2,144 Active, now sits at 347.

The Absorption rate for New homes was 13 months of inventory for August vs. 13 in July. The Absorption rate for Used homes was 12 months of inventory for August vs. 14 in July. Over the last four years the drop in months of inventory for Used homes has been steady and impressive from 25 months plus in August 2008 to 12 months in August. (Sect A p.17).

Average sales price for all homes has been stable for the past year. For New units, prices increased to $298,172 from $203,440 last month. (Sect A p.14). Average Used home prices increased to $202,962 from $201,658 in July.

Average Days On Market for New Sold properties in August was 303 this month (I regard that as a good sign as old inventory is moving) vs. 177 last month. Days On Market for Used was 178 this month vs. 185 last month.

Survey Sees Slow Sales Ahead

This report was published by the Alabama Center for Real Estate several weeks ago. It is interesting how spot on the projections for a slow down are being realized.

The survey projects expectations for the 3rd quarter of 2011. The scale ranges from 0-100 with 0 being much worse, 100 being much better, and 50 indicating no change expected.

Spring and early summer sales have been modest and the Alabama real estate community is somewhat less optimistic as the industry transitions into the 3rd quarter. The overall index (red below) is at 45 this year vs. 44 last year at this time, indicating less than favorable expectations for the upcoming quarter. Last quarter the score was 49, approximately neutral, but showing a several quarter consecutive improvement, which has now reversed. Last year was dragged down by the oil spill on the coast and the now expired home buyer’s tax credit. The outlook for sales (yellow) this quarter is modestly positive at 52, down from 60 last quarter.

Overview 3Q 2011

The statewide overall score declined (see green line above). In short, while sales are expected to slightly improve, the inventory, price and credit indications are still below the 50 mark and expected to deteriorate. Sales will be up, but sellers are likely to be frustrated by competition and pricing, and some buyers will continue to have problems getting financing.

Regional Results:

The two most positive markets are The Alabama Coast and the North Central Birmingham- Tuscaloosa markets. North Alabama-Huntsville market has shown the sharpest reversal.

Select Areas 3q 2011

The coastal areas, which had been improving (see blue line above), declined slightly.

Perhaps more important than the absolute number is the fairly dramatic change in direction expressed across each of the measured questions with all measures showing deterioration after several quarters of improvement.

Commercial market participants (the majority of the respondents are from theBirmingham market area) were slightly less positive in their outlook this quarter than last at 53 this quarter vs. 58 last for sales expectations. Price expectations remain weak, at 43 vs 44 last quarter indicating continued pricing pressure in all markets. The rating for credit availability remains poor, at 46 down 1 point from last quarter, a level which indicates expected contraction in credit availability.

North Region

North Alabamashowed a surprising reversal in all scores. The total score of 45, down from 53, an 8 point drop from last quarter, was the largest change of the 4 regions.  This indicates a concern for the national and local economy in the coming quarter. The outlook for theAlabamamarket also dropped to 50. Sales expectations inHuntsvilleare neutral at 50. Inventory is expected to increase with a score of 45. Pricing is expected to be under pressure at 42.

North Central Region

The North Central Region along with the South Coastal region showed the least change of the state’s four geographic areas. The sales score declined 4 points to 54. Inventory, pricing, and credit are all still below the 50 mark at 47, 41 and 39 respectively.

South Central Region

The South Central Region participants outlook for sales declined 9 points to 49.

South Region

The Southern Region sales score declined 5 points to 57 and is now the state’s most optimistic sales area.

About the Alabama Real Estate Confidence Index and Survey:

Over 700 professionals responded to the 3rd quarter 2011 survey which was conducted during the month of June 2011. The survey, conducted by the Alabama Center For Real Estate now has the largest participation of any real estate survey. It provides important market insights.

The ACRE Leadership Council  determined the need for a statewide industry confidence index and this was adopted as the Council’s first initiative. Tom Brander, Council Member, was selected by the Council and Grayson Glaze, ACRE Executive Director, to spearhead and work with the Center to conduct and produce its Alabama Real Estate Confidence Index (ARECI). The Council appreciates everyone who participated.

The chart in Section A p.18 has been showing substantial inventory reduction for a year, but not so much from sales as people not listing properties. The reduction in Active listings will probably help the market somewhat. Inventories remain very high. Used inventory is now hovering about 4,000, a full 2,000 below August 2008, but the sales level has also shrunk dramatically. The number of Active listings continues to drop, which is positive (more below).

The 12 month moving average line of unit sales for Used homes had a pronounced upward slope through seven months ago. But with the spill, it had been showing a slight downward trend. Now once again, for the last several months, the line has begun to point up. On a unit basis, sales of all houses declined slightly, down 5% to 376 this month vs. 395 last month, which is 29% up from last year’s 292.

In the under $100,000 price range there has been an unusual pick up in activity over the last four months going from 60-80 sales per month to 100-110 per month. It almost appears that some entity is buying up these lower priced properties?

Used Home sales declined slightly, down 6% to 351 this month vs. 373 last month, which is up 31% from last year’s 267.(Sect A p.18). New Home sales were 25 this month vs 22 last month. The low number of sales of New homes reflects the intense competition from existing, and a virtual shutdown of new construction.

New listings for New homes increased to 51 from 42 in June. Used houses New listings decreased to 691 from 870 in June with net inventory still down.

The absolute number of Used Active homes on the market, which had a slight peak mid-summer of ‘09, has once again been improving. In July, there were 4,116 Active Used homes, a reduction from 4,524 in June. The New home market, which peaked in July 2006 at 2,144 Active, now sits at 331.

Baldwin County & Alabama Coastal Areas MLS*: Observations for the Month of May 2011

This month dollar sales improved a slim 1% to $87,001,293 from April’s $86,358,113. This is 18% above May last year at $73,910,069 when sales were impacted by the oil spill (Sect A p.2). The 12 month moving average line of sales is flat.

The chart in Section A p.18 has been showing substantial inventory reduction for a year, but not so much from sales as people not listing properties. The reduction in Active listings will probably help the market somewhat. Inventories remain very high. Used inventory is now below 4,000, a full 2,000 below August 2008, but the sales level has also shrunk dramatically. The number of Active listings continues to drop, which is positive (more below).

In the under $100,000 price range there has been an unusual pick up in activity over the last three months going from 60-80 sales per month to 100-110 per month. It almost appears that some entity is buying up these lower priced properties?

Used house unit sales were off 4% to 380 from 395 last month. New home unit sales improved to 32 from 27 last month (Sect A p.18). The low number of sales of New homes reflects the intense competition from existing, and an extended slowdown of new construction.

New listings for New homes increased to 45 from 32 in April. Used houses New listings declined to 714 from 771 in April (net inventory was still down).

The absolute number of Used Active homes on the market, which had a slight peak mid-summer of ‘09, has once again been improving. In May, there were 3,987 Active Used homes, a 8% reduction from 4,335 in April. The New home market, which peaked in May 2006 at 2,144 Active, now sits at 313.

Alabama Coastal Real Estate begins to look up?

Baldwin County & Alabama Coastal Areas MLS*: Observations for the Month of April 2011

Last year at this time I began to discuss how I though that things were improving in Alabama coastal real estate. The following month the oil spill happened. This year I am seeing the same positive pattern emerge, so hopefully with no disasters we should see a decent market. This month dollar sales improved a reasonable 17% to $84,121,723 from March’s $72,067,530. This is 3% below April last year at $87,171,023 and is encouraging (Sect A p.2). The 12 month moving average line of sales is pretty flat.

The chart in Section A p.18 has been showing substantial inventory reduction for eleven months, but not so much from sales as people not listing properties. The reduction in Active listings will probably help the market somewhat. Inventories remain very high. Used inventory is now below 4,000, a full 2,000 below August 2008, but the sales level has also shrunk dramatically. The number of Active listings continues to drop, which is positive (more below).

The 12 month moving average line of unit sales for Used homes had a pronounced upward slope through seven months ago. But with the spill, it had been showing a slight downward trend. For the last several months, the line has begun to point up. On a unit basis, sales of all houses improved, up 11% to 388 this month vs. 351 last month, which is 10% off from last year’s 429.

Used house unit sales were up 14% to 363 from 318 last month. New home unit sales declined to 25 from 33 last month (Sect A p.18). The low number of sales of New homes reflects the intense competition from existing, and an extended slowdown of new construction.

New listings for New homes decreased to 32 from 47 in March. Used houses New listings remained at 766 this month (net inventory was still down). We have not seen a dramatic increase in spring listings yet.

The absolute number of Used Active homes on the market, which had a slight peak mid-summer of ‘09, has once again been improving. In April, there were 3,968 Active Used homes, a 8% reduction from 4,333 in March. The New home market, which peaked in April 2006 at 2,144 Active, now sits at 333.

The Absorption rate for New homes was 12 months of inventory for April vs. 12 in March. The Absorption rate for Used homes was 14 months of inventory for April vs. 15 in March. (Sect A p.17).

Average sales price for all homes has been quite stable for the past year. For New units, prices increased to $223,203 from $217,950 last month. (Sect A p.14). Average Used home prices increased to $202,373 from $182,234 in March. Over the last four months Six Used homes in the over $900,000 price range sold each month, and eight this month, which is a notable positive change. It seems that word is out though, and there were 22 new listings in this price range. Average Days On Market for New Sold properties in April was 342 this month vs. 240 last month. Days On Market for Used was 198 this month vs. 173 last month. I regard the increase in days on market as a good sign indicating that older inventory is moving.

February Alabama Coastal Real Estate Shows Signs of Improvement

Baldwin County MLS* & Alabama Coastal Areas: Observations for the Month of February 2011

This year dollar sales improved 23% to $65,950,199 from January’s $53,791,721. This is 28% above February last year which was $51,420,802. This is quite encouraging (Sect A p.2). As a result, the 12 month moving average line of sales is flat with a slight upward bias. For three months running the sales level has been above corresponding months for the prior two years.

The chart in Section A p.18 has been showing substantial inventory reduction for nine months, but not so much from sales as people not putting properties on the market. The abnormally large drop in inventory at year end, (noted last month), is due to expired listings which have not been renewed. The reduction in Active listings, will probably help the market somewhat. Inventories remain very high. Used inventory is now below 4,000, a full 2,000 below August 2008, but the sales level has also shrunk dramatically. The number of Active listings is at the lowest level since early 2006, which is positive (more below).

The 12 month moving average line of unit sales for Used homes had a pronounced upward slope through six months ago. But with the spill, it had been showing a slight downward trend due to the size and counter cyclical nature of the sales drop. For the last several months, the line has begun to point up. On a unit basis, sales of all houses improved, in line with the dollar sales, up 13% to 312 this month vs. 275 last month, which is 18% better than last year’s 264.

Used house unit sales were up to 295 from 252 last month. New home unit sales declined to 17 from 23 last month (Sect A p.18). The low number of sales of New homes reflects the intense competition from existing, and an extended slowdown of new construction.

New listings for New homes remained at 36 in February. Used houses New listings increased to 682 this month from 618 in January (net inventory was still down). This could be a concern going forward.

The absolute number of Used Active homes on the market, which had a slight peak mid-summer of ‘09, has once again started to improve slightly. In February, there were 3,930 Active Used homes, a 4% reduction from 4,094 in January. The New home market, which peaked in February 2006 at 2,144 Active, now sits at 332.

The Absorption rate for New homes was 11 months of inventory for February vs. 11 in January. The Absorption rate for Used homes was 13 months of inventory for February vs. 14 in January. (Sect A p.17).

Average sales price for all homes had been trending down, but now is showing some signs of stability. For New units, prices increased to $214,809 from $208,313 last month. (Sect A p.14). Average Used home price increased to $211,181 from $194,447 in January. Six Used homes in the over $900,000 price range sold, which is a notable positive change. It seems that word is out though, and there were 16 new listings. Average Days On Market for New Sold properties in February was 254 this month vs. 322 last month. Days On Market for Used was 204 this month vs. 212 last month.
