Market Overview by Willie Lane |
| November market stats for November are in and showing the slow down in the market in the lead up to the Presidential Election. For Duval County single family homes - Pending Sales, Closed sales, and Median Sales Price all down significantly, especially on the former two. An increase was seen on Median Days on Market, Active Inventory and Months Supply of Inventory which the latter, as we know, is a big indicator of whether we are in a Buyer or Sellers market. From these stats it appears we have crossed the threshold of a balanced market to a Buyers Market. I do believe the market place volatilty in the lead up to the election, mortgage rates, economic indicators such as jobs and inflation reports, etc have much to do with the stats we are seeing from November. There is a consesus among colleagues that we are poised to see a busy start to the New Year and Spring markets with more Buyer demand that will be in the Sellers favor. If you are thinking of Selling, now is the time to prep your home and contact your Realtor! |

| | Mortgage Rates Continue to Drop |
| The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage decreased for the third consecutive week. The combination of mortgage rate declines, firm consumer income growth and a bullish stock market have increased homebuyer demand in recent weeks. While the outlook for the housing market is improving, the improvement is limited given that homebuyers continue to face stiff affordability headwinds. -Freddie Mac For more info click HERE |

| | | | | HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our Queen! We celebrated Marion's birthday on December 14th (Friday-Sunday of celebrating). A lot of fun was had this past weekend and we hope she felt the love as she deserves. Welsey went to his first regular-season Jags game with some of his buddies. They had SO MUCH fun and were spoiled for the day with candy, game day swag and endless fun. We visted the Ponte Vedra Inn and Club for smores on the beach and to see Santa Clause. Elliott is terrified of the thought of a large, bearded man entering our home in the night. However, she does love the idae of being gifted an Elsa Castle and "little play persons." We celebrated Ethan's Baptism at Palm's Presbyterian Church and a family lunch afterwards. We love Ethan to pieces and love watching him grow everyday. He's pulling up on everything and seems so close to walking! He's 9 months old. We are looking forward to Christmas and being together with friends and family. See ya next month! Love - The Lane's |
