Delray Beach Real Estate Market Report | Sept 2019

Home Sales in Delray Beach Real Estate Market Report | Sept 2019

 

Click here to view all homes for sale in Delray Beach FL

Delray Beach real estate market report showed continued to show steady but fewer sales in September 2019 in Delray Beach, FL.  Delray Beach is now a year-round market in south Florida, with more and more people moving here every day.  It’s not just winter months for real estate sales any longer. 

The number of listings on condos increased in September, as well as prices for condos decreased.  Home sales show a different story.  Listings increased while prices increased significantly.   A lot of this has to do with decreasing mortgage rates.  

With the lowest interest rates we have seen in some time, homeowners in Delray Beach FL, we saw a mixed bag in September.  Homeowners who want to sell will want to price their homes correctly.  The Delray Beach real estate market is becoming more balanced, but inventory is declining.  Of course, this can and does vary by community, but with decreasing mortgage rates, both buyers and sellers should take notice.

As a pet-friendly real estate agent in Boca Raton, Delray Beach and surrounding areas, I am getting the word out to buyers and sellers who have been waiting and watching.  Some communities, especially resales in 55+ active adult communities, have more inventory than others.  Both buyers and sellers need to realize this and price their homes accordingly.

So, what happened in the Delray Beach 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!

Inventory continues to remain low while prices have gone up.  Buyers have fewer choices now than they had just a few months ago; although, again, it varies by community.

CONDO SALES IN DELRAY BEACH FL

 

Active Delray Beach FL Condos For Sale

 

Delray Beach real estate market report shows as of September 30, 2019, there were 865 condos for sale.  This is up from the previous month.  Delray Beach is really big!.  It extends from the beach,  to downtown in the city of Delray to central Delray and then out to west Delray Beach.   The highest-priced listing currently available in September was $ 3,995,00 and the lowest was $ 34,500.

No, that isn’t a mistake.  You read it right.  It says $ 34,500.  It’s in a country club with mandatory equity fees, yearly dues, condo fees and, usually, assessments.  So while you can buy the condo for $ 39,000 in Delray, you must pay the mandatory equity, along with yearly dues and monthly fees to go along with it.  It’s pretty pricey.  Many people do not want to pay the additional fees associated with the country clubs these days, unless they are die-hard golfers.

Real estate market report in Delray Beach in September showed the square footage of the available condos ranged from 500 square feet to 5,859.  While these two properties are at complete opposite ends of the spectrum, the average condo for sale in Delray Beach in July 2019 was listed at $ 348,262 and had 1323 square feet.

Note:  Included in condos are townhouses and villas.

 

Active Delray Beach FL Single Family Homes For Sale

 

As of  September 30, 2019, there were 623 single family homes for sale in Delray Beach.  That’s almost 40 more homes than last month. Inventory on single family homes in Delray Beacch continues to get tighter, as mortgage rates have been dropping.  People don’t realize how big Delray Beach is going from east to west., from the beach to west Delray.  Even with tight inventory, that’s a lot of homes!

The highest-price listing currently available in September was $ 44,500,00 and the lowest was $ 110,000.

I know you’re thinking $ 44,500,000!  So was I.  Yes, it is a to-be-built multi-level contemporary house on the ocean in Delray Beach.  Estimated to be completed in 2021 with 6 bedrooms, 9 baths and 7 half baths, that ought to be some house!

Many people get confused when it comes to equity country clubs and gated communities in Delray Beach.

Square footage of the available homes on the market in Delray Beach FL in July ranged from 616 to 21,010  That’s quite a range, but the average home for sale in Delray Beach in September 2019 was listed at $ 1,413,876 and had 3,394 square feet.  Listing price shows a definite increase over last month.

 

Pending Delray Beach 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 116 Pending Sales in Delray Beach, again down from last month.

 

Pending Delray Beach Single Family Homes

 

In September 2019, there were 53 Pending single family homes, pretty much the same as last month.  Included in this are houses under contract, in backup status, and pending waiting to close.

 

Closed Sales Delray Beach Condos

 

In September 2019, there were 184 closed sales of condos, villas and townhouses in Delray Beach, FL.  This shows a marked decrease this month.  The average sale price for these homes was $ 213,570, down from last month.  They took an average of 54 days to sell.  

The days on market has gone down almost by half this month.  This is a reminder to sellers to price their properties correctly for the real estate market in Delray Beach we are currently in.  This real estate market has changed from the market we were in just a couple months ago.   With decreased inventory, buyers have fewer homes to see, but they don’t want to overpay.  They’re more educated today. 

Don’t overprice your home and let it become an old, stale listing.   The sales price to list price ratio last month was 95%. The most expensive condo in Delray Beach last month sold for $ 3,250,000.  The lowest priced sale was $ 12,500.   

 

Closed Sales Delray Beach Single Family Homes

 

In September 2019, there were 108 closed sales of single family homes in Delray Beach, FL.  That’s almost half of what it was last month. The average sale price for these homes was $ 632,542, up from last month.  They took an average of 115 days to sell.

Days on market remained pretty consistent.  This is a reminder to sellers to price their properties correctly for the real estate market in Delray Beach we are currently in, which has changed from the market we were in just six months ago.   Although there may be less homes to see, buyers are picky.  They’re educated, especially when they have a good buyer’s agent, and they read. 

Don’t overprice your home and let yours become an old, stale listing.   The sales price to list price ratio last month was 96%. That’s up from last month, meaning houses are closing for closer to asking price.  The most expensive house in Delray Beach last month sold for $ 5,617,500.  The lowest priced sale was $ 115,000. 

 

What can Delray Beach Residents Expect Regarding Real Estate In The Coming Months?

 

Delray Beach real estate market report continues to show we have less inventory and the lowest mortgage rates we have seen in some time.  It’s a buyer’s market but with fewer homes for sale.  Inventory has become tighter.  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.  Buyers are out there but they’re more educated now.

While this varies by community – some communities have more inventory while others have very little – you need a great buyer’s agent to explain these facts to get your home sold,   Or, if you are buying new construction or just buying a home –  if you’re a buyer, – you need a great buyer’s agent to do the research and guide you.  Yes, even with new construction.  Especially with new construction!  Click on the link to learn why.

Trust me, the nice salespeople in the sales office are not on your side.  They work for the builder.
