Boca Raton FL Real Estate Market Report | Sept 2019

Home Sales in Boca Raton FL Sept 2019 Market Report

 

Click here to view all homes for sale in Boca Raton FL

Low inventory and higher pricing is we saw in the  Boca Raton FL real estate market  in September .  Houses are  going fast, especially when they show well.  The number of listings decreased significantly in September while their prices went up.   What also increased was days on market.

With less homes coming on the market daily, homeowners who want to sell will want to be a bit more flexible now.  Buyers are picky; they know what they want.  The market is becoming a bit more balanced.  Of course, this can and does vary by community, but with low mortgage rates and decreasing inventory, buyers and sellers should take notice.

As a pet-friendly real estate agent in Boca Raton FL, I am getting the word out to buyers who have been waiting and looking.  I recently had a buyer in a 55+ pet-friendly gated community who made offers on 4 houses where the sellers stood their ground.  The buyer walked from each of the 4 houses and, ultimately, made a deal with the 5th seller.  Sellers need to realize this and price their homes accordingly.  Same with condos; if you want to sell, price it right from the beginning.  

So, what happened in the Boca Raton real estate market this past month?  Let’s check out the details and see if this market is the right one for you to buy or sell!

We’ve had less fresh inventory hit the market in the past month or so.  Buyers have fewer choices now than they’ve had in years – again, varying by community, but they still want what they want.

CONDO SALES IN BOCA RATON FL

 

Active Boca Raton FL Condos For Sale

 

As of September 30, 2019, there were 1147 condos for sale in Boca Raton FL, a slight increase from last month.  I know this sounds like a lot, but many people don’t realize how big Boca really is.  It extends from the beach, downtown within the city of Boca Raton to cental Boca and then to west Boca Raton. 

 The Boca Raton FL real estate market report showed the highest-priced listing currently available in September was $ 15,500,000 and the lowest was  $ 8500.00.  It’s hard to believe, but it’s true.  That’s a big span.

No, that isn’t a mistake.  You read it right.  It says $ 8,500. It’s higher than the previous month where one sold for a dollar.  It’s in a condo in a country club with mandatory equity fees, yearly dues, condo and HOA fees,  along with assessments.  So while you can buy the condo for $ 8,500, you must pay the mandatory equity, along with yearly dues, monthly condo fees, dining fees and more to go along with it.  I can tell you, it’s pricey. 

Many people do not want to pay the additional fees associated with country clubs these days, unless they are die-hard golfers.  There is also a condo priced at $ 50 and one for $ 100, even $ 1,000.  Hard to believe, right?

Square footage of the available condos in Boca Raton ranged from 518 square feet to 7,767.  While these two properties are at complete opposite ends of the spectrum, the average condo for sale in Boca Raton in September 2019 was listed at $ 584,495 and had 1696 square feet.  That’s significantly higher than the previous month.

Note:  Included in condos are townhouses and villas.

 

Active Boca Raton FL Single Family Homes For Sale

 

As of September 30, 2019, there were 1,128 single family homes for sale in Boca Raton, pretty much the same as last month.  Again, I know that sounds like a lot but, hey guys, Boca Raton is big!  It encompasses eight zip codes from north to south and east to west!  Really.

The Boca Raton FL real estate market report showed the highest-priced listing currently available in September 2019 was $ 18,950,000 and the lowest priced was $ $ 1.  And there were three of them!  Want to guess where they were?  You got it.  Right!  In a mandatory equity country club!   

Many people get confused with equity country clubs and gated communities in Boca Raton.  

Overall, prices of single family homes are going up while inventory is going down.  

 

WHY SOME HOUSES ARE PRICED SO LOW

 

You can find great houses in mandatory equity country clubs that are priced very low, much less than you see elsewhere.  The reason?  All the extra fees; mandatory equity, annual dues, homeowner’s or condo fees, restaurant minimums and assessments.  If it seems too good to be true, there’s always a reason.

Square footage of the available homes in Boca Raton ranged from 810 to 27,832.  That’s quite a range, but the average home for sale in Boca Raton in September 2019 was listed at $ 1,560,298 and had 3,683 square feet.

 

Pending Boca Raton Condos

 

Pending Sales include condos, villas and townhouses that are also contingent, backup status (both mean they are under contract but have contingencies waiting to be met) and pending (waiting to close.)  In September 2019, there were 143 Pending Sales in Boca Raton.  That’s more than double that are under contract from last month.

 

Pending Boca Raton Single Family Homes

 

In September 2019, there were 276 Pending single family homes.  Included in this are houses under contract, in backup status and pending waiting to close.  That’s a significant increase from last month., more than double the amount.

 

 

Closed Sales Boca Raton Condos

 

In September 2019, there were 283 closed sales of condos, villas and townhouses in Boca Raton, FL.  The average sale price for these homes was $ 252,481.  They took an average of 128 days to sell.

Boca Raton real estate market report showed closed sale prices remained pretty much the same, while days on market increased slightly.  Total number of condos and closed sales were more this month than last.  Inventory is low.  This is a reminder to sellers to price their properties correctly for the market we are currently in, which has changed from the market we were in last year.   With decreased inventory and low mortgage rates, buyers are picky.  Don’t overprice and let yours become an old, stale listing.   The sales price to list price ratio last month was 94%.

The most expensive condo in Boca Raton last month sold for $ 1,750,000.  The lowest priced sale was $ 8,500.  

 

Closed Sales Boca Raton Single Family Homes

 

In September 2019, there were 188 closed sales of single family homes in Boca Raton, FL.  The average sale price for these homes was $ 763,494.  They took an average of 98 days to sell.

Boca Raton FL real estate market report showed prices of closed single family homes were close to last month.  Days on market increased slightly.  There were less closed sales, and they closed for pretty much the same as last month.

This is a reminder to sellers to price their properties correctly for the market we are currently in.  With decreased inventory and low mortgage rates, we are in a mixed market.  Houses that show well and are priced right go fast. 

There are less properties, but buyers have become pickier.  They know what they want.  Don’t overprice and let yours become an old listing.   The sales price to list price ratio last month was 95%.

The most expensive house house in Boca Raton last month sold for $ 7,450,000.  The lowest priced sale was $ 80,000. 

 

What can Boca Raton FL Residents Expect Regarding Real Estate In The Coming Months?

 

The Boca Raton real estate market is stabilizing.  We are seeing a shift to a buyer’s market in certain communities and prices rising due to low interest rates. 

Sellers need to be aware of this and price their properties for today’s market, not the market of a year ago or even six months ago.  While this varies by community – some communities have more inventory, while others have very little – you need a great agent to help you get your home sold.  Or, in the alternative, if you’re a buyer, you need a great buyer’s agent to do the research for you.

You can do really well on a resale now as compared to new construction.  New construction is priced  high.   Do you need a Buyer’s Agent for new construction?  You bet you do!  Caveat Emptor!
