Morristown NJ Real Estate Sales Spring 2009

The spring real estate market here in Morristown NJ got off to a slower start than the 2008 market did.  Things seem to be shifting a little bit though as we head to the latter part of the spring home selling market. 

Some evidence that has effected me personally, the new home listing I put on the market last week at 28 Dellwood Ave in Morris Twp. had a great open house with more then 25 visitors, and the number of showings during the week has been very strong with more than 12 showings in the first 6 days.  Also the number of people I am talking to who are getting pre-approved for mortgages and going out to look at homes has gone up quite a bit the past 5 weeks, as compaired to the beginning of the year.

    Ok I know that there is still tons of bad news out there and plenty of reasons to believe it but here are a few things that MIGHT indicate that the real estate market is starting to firm up in Phoenix.

    1. A mortgage lender friend of mine says that April will be his best month since 2005.

    2. I wrote purchase contracts on two different properties today and received offers on two different listings this weekend. This constitutes the busiest weekend I have had in four years. One of the offers I received was for full price.

    3. My wife, an escrow officer, says that April will be her busiest month since 2005. About 50% of the transactions are refinancing of existing mortgages and 50% purchase contracts. Yes, most of the contracts are of lower priced foreclosures but its still promising to see that so many people believe prices now “make sense”.

    4. We have received more buyer leads over the last two weeks than we have in four years.

    5. We are finding properties priced low enough that one can easily enjoy positive cash flow if they buy and then rent the property out.

    I’m not saying that we can now declare that the bust is over and full steam ahead but if things keep going in this direction we very well may be seeing the beginning of a recovery.

    Just reading through your blog for the first time. I like the layout and color. Everything flows together very nice. Seems like the market may be starting to turn around slowly.
