Here is the Real Estate Market Activity for January - November 2008. Check back each month to see the monthly 2008 trend for Bremerton WA.
On November 30th there were 591 homes for sale with 6 of those homes listed as a contingent sale and 58 homes listed as Pending Inspection (new NWMLS term STI was replaced) which means there is a contract that has been presented and accepted by the seller with the condition of the home inspection or a feasibility study.
Once the home inspection has taken place these 58 homes will either go back on the market or be listed as pending. These homes are not available for public view and will not show in the active section of the Northwest Multiple Listing Service. (NWMLS) - this will be changing in December. You will be able to go to broker websites and see the status. Ie:
Public Display of Pending Listings
In response to the request from the membership, effective Monday, December 15th, listings in the Pending, Pending Inspection, Pending Feasibility, and Pending BU Requested status will be available for public display on broker websites.
During the Month of November 96 homes were new to the Bremerton area Real Estate Market.
During the Month of November 58 homes went under contract and were removed from the active Bremerton homes data base. The median price for Bremerton area homes was $199,725 with a market time of 111 days (median).
During the Month of November 44 homes sold - which means that ownership changed hands and there are new owners listed on the tax records recorded at the Kitsap County courthouse. These Bremerton area homes were on the market 94 days (median) and sold for a median price of $225,500.
An absorption rate is the mathematical relationship of supply and demand. The absorption rate is the number of months it would take to sell the entire inventory of homes in the Bremerton area of Kitsap County if the pace were to stay constant.
The Absorption rate in the Bremerton area is 58.22 weeks or approximately 13.43 months of inventory if the current conditions remain unchanged. These figures have increased.Wow! This figure sure jumped - with only 44 homes sold that is the reason. Remember absorption rates track trends. Hope this trend reverses it's self!
Using absorption rates can help you define markets. My definition breaks down like this…
Normal Market - Between 5 and 6 months of inventory.
Seller’s Market - Between 1 and 4 months of inventory.
Buyer’s Market - 7 months and higher.
