Mill Valley Real Estate Report (January 2012 Home Sales Update) | Pacific Union International

January 30, 2012

December 2011 home sales in Mill Valley dipped to just 18 trades. These properties sold for an average price of $1.196 million and averaged 2,202 sq. ft. (or about $496 per sq. ft.). Pricing remains the key ingredient determining buyer interest levels and salability. Buyers continue to insist on readily apparent and undeniable value. If they don’t see it in a property, they are willing to wait it out. The number of listings actively on the market in the MLS has decreased to the point of virtual . This is extraordinarily low inventory even for this time of year.

Listings in Strawberry, Middle Ridge, Sycamore Park, and Tam Valley generated the most calls this month. Well-priced homes continue to generate multiple offers. If you would like more information about neighborhoods, sales, schools, or local Mill Valley services references, just give me a call at (415) 350-9440 or e-mail me at [email protected] I currently have several clients who want to sell, but are waiting in the wings for Spring 2012. Please contact me to determine if any of these opportunities fit your needs. I am also a member of the Top Agent Network and Marin Platinum Group with access to dozens of homes not “officially” on the market but available for sale.

Pacific Union International | Novato Real Estate Market Update (January 2012 Novato Home Sales Report)

January 23, 2012

December 2011, like November, exceeded all expectations in terms of Novato, CA real estate sales (we had 35). Obviously, December is traditionally a slow month (usually, December and January are terribly unexciting) for closings in Novato and all of Marin County. This year’s unseasonably warm weather and complete lack of rain kept buyers engaged well into January. As has been the case for the past quarter, buyers continue to move very quickly on well-priced and/or unique real estate opportunities. As with other Marin towns along the HWY 101 corridor, the average sales price of Novato homes has swung wildly this year from month to month. For example, the average sale price in June was $626K in October, $530K in September, and $588K in December 2012. December’s trades averaged 109 days on market, were about 2,273 sq. ft., and averaged roughly $267 sq. ft. Novato’s  absorption rate (e.g., number of months’ inventory of homes for sale based on last month’s sales totals) continues to hover in historically low territory with a shockingly low 2 months’ worth of available inventory overall (a mere 70 single family homes are actively for sale in Novato). The hottest component of the Novato real estate market (as always) is the entry and move-up levels — homes priced under $750K — where ~60% of homes are in escrow and inventory is so tight that the absorption rate is less than 2 month’s worth of inventory.

Below are the percentages of homes in escrow in each of Novato’s major price bands:

■54% of homes priced under $500,000;
■52% of homes between $501,000 and $750,000;
■32% of homes between $751,000 and $1 million;
■18% of homes between $1 million and up.

Of the 35 homes that sold in December 2011:

■17 homes were priced under $500,000;
■15 homes priced from $501,00 to $1 million; and
■3 home priced from $1 million and up.

Homes in The Landing at Hamilton Field, Breakers at Pointe Marin, Marin Country Club, Rush Creek, and Bel Marin Keys generated the most calls and showings this past month.
