Greenwich, CT Residential Real Estate Blog and Analysis: 
July 12th
A weekly analysis brought to you by Greenwich Real Estate Guy.

  Dear Jared 

 

Location, Location, Location.  The above colonial is within close proximity to everything.  Located in the desirable Riverside neighborhood, within walking distance to Riverside Elementary, Eastern Middle, and the train.  The property was renovated in 2006, contains a large kitchen, four bedrooms, four and one half baths.  The square footage is listed at 3,406 s.f.  There are only two properties South of Post Road in Riverside listed for sale under $1.75M.  The listing price is $1.695M.

 

In a great sign for the overall market the inventory shrunk again over the last two weeks.  We went from 692 total properties to 672.    If you look below in the analytical section of the graphs, you will see we had an incredible June.  We have had a very hot start to July.  We have sold 46 properties so far in July.  The biggest growth we see is surprisingly in the $5M to $7.5M range.  In the first six months we had only sold 13 total properties.  Whereas, in the first two weeks of July we have sold 5.  Is this a one off uptick or a trend?  We will have to see if it continues. Feel free to compare the numbers of month on average, the sold by price range percentages, and new listing vs. sold numbers with previous issues at  www.greenwichrealestateguy.com/blog. 

 

Below are the Sold Price to List Price percentage for each of the four towns as well as some neighborhood data:

I would like to thank Mark Pruner for mentioning me in the Greenwich Patch.  Mark also does his own synopsis of the Greenwich Market at www.greenwichstreets.com.  I have updated the mortgage information on the bottom of the newsletter as well.

Properties Sold

This shows how incredible of a June we had.  June of 2011 was busy because July 1st the conveyance taxes went up.  So, this just shows the difference in this June than past Junes.  We have also had a good start to July. 

 

New Listings
newlistings071213

We have had 46 properties sell in July, and 42 new listings.  The overall inventory shrank by 20, but no one price range changed too dramatically.  We had the $5M to $7.5M range sold properties grow, but the inventory in that range stayed even.

 

 

 

  
Year to Date Soldytdsold071213

 

 June and July have been very good for the market in regards to sold properties.  We are not seeing a tremendous change in any price range though.  The $5M to $7.5M range grew 1 percent while the $500K$1M range dropped a percent.

In an effort to define the different markets as a good time to buy or sale I believe one needs to look at the months on average it would take to sell through the inventory we have.  I have broken this down by June of 2012 (which is the high in my opinion) to January of 2013 (the low in my opinion) then will add each month as we come to them.

 **to calculate months on average I used the full year of 2012 sold properties in each price range

Obviously the months on average were the lowest at the end of the year.  The uncertainty of the fiscal cliff, as well as the election (most properties that closed in December were negotiated before election was finalized), and uncertainty of taxes.  Not to mention if people are going to take their house off of the market they will tend to do it over the holidays.
