Sales in Moorestown

Posted at 2:28 PM, Jan. 21, 2006

In a previous post (How Fast Will My Home Sell?), we talked about Sales, The Real Estate Market and Absorption Rates. Now we will look at Moorestown and take a closer look at the statistics with regard to price ranges. (All sold data including Average Days on Market (DOM); Units Listed (UL) applies to the full year of 2005. The number of active listings applies to Jan 20, 2006)

Price range $0 to $300,000: Sold (S), 74; Units Listed (UL), 88; Average Days on Market for sold properties (DOM), 55; Active Listings (AL), 20; Rate of Absorption or months supply of listings (RA), 3.24.

Price range $301,000 to $500,000: (S), 88; (UL), 120; (DOM), 49; (AL), 23; (RA), 3.14.

Price range $501,000 to $750,000: (S), 81; (UL), 139; (DOM), 75; (AL), 29; (RA), 4.30.

Price range $751,000 to $1,000,000: (S), 45; (UL), 96; (DOM), 80; (AL), 33; (RA), 8.80.

Price range above $1,000,000: (S), 17; (UL), 53; (DOM), 99; (AL), 21; (RA), 14.82.

As we indicated before if the homes sold are broken down into price ranges, the Rate of Absorption (months of supply) will change. In the case of homes in Moorestown, it varies from a low of 3.14 to a high of 14.82.  Notice also the difference between the units listed and the sold. It is common for new listings to be sold before existing listings; therefore, some of the listings may never be sold. Keep in mind that the DOM figure is only for listings sold. Homes that are priced right or correctly will sell faster than those priced higher than market value will. Rate of Absorption is not an exact science, it is only an indicator of market trends, and requires the judgment of an experienced Real Estate Agent.
