Sold/Under Contract North fork Houses May 2009
May 31st, 2009 category: Real Estate News
The following information was obtained from MLSLI- while deemed accurate, no guarantees.
In order to gain a sense of the market, we bring you monthly sold/closed homes on the North fork/east end of Long Island. For sellers, it’s an opportunity to see what direction things are going; for buyers, if you’re considering a property out this way, it’s need-to-know information.
MAY, 2009 UNDER CONTRACT PROPERTIES:
Total u/c: 38
Median Listing Price: $399k (listed- does not reflect sold price)
Riverhead had the most active sales activity, with 12 contracts. This is in part because this report includes manufactured homes; Cutchogue had a total of 7 properties under contract, followed by Southold (4); Mattituck (3), and Baiting Hollow (3).
MAY, 2008 UNDER CONTRACT PROPERTIES:
Total u/c: 34
Median Listing Price: $469,450 (closed figure)
Riverhead lead the pack last year, as well, followed by Southold, Orient, and Baiting Hollow.
THE GOOD NEWS? While median pricing is lower, activity is keeping pace with last year.
MAY, 2009 CLOSED PROPERTIES:
Total closed: 31
Median Closed Pricing: 350k
Riverhead showed the highest # of closings with 9, followed by Mattituck with 4; Baiting Hollow with 4.
MAY, 2008 CLOSED PROPERTIES:
Total closed: 40
Median Closed Pricing: $475k
A lower figure with closings is reflecting the very quiet Jan/Feb/March on the east end of Long Island. These figures should see some improvement in volume (not pricing) when activity this month closes over the course of the next few months.
Clearly, prices have dropped, and the forecast doesn’t indicate that we’ll be an increase any time soon. We’ve noticed that waterfront is becoming more obtainable- with continued price drops, it will be interesting to watch the market over the coming months.
If you’re seeking property on the east end of Long Island, we represent the buying side, and will provide all data needed to make an informed decision. Do NOT buy from a listing company (or any real estate agent) representing the seller if your agenda is to uncover the best possible price- you won’t find it.
