During the month of May there were 63 homes that sold in Port Orchard. These Port Orchard homes actually had a transfer of home ownership. Contracts complete and Lender funds available. 

Once all the I’s were dotted and the T’s crossed there where deeds recorded at the Kitsap County courthouse that transferred the property into the new home owner’s name!

If you want to learn more about how we transfer property in Washington State a really great site to visit is the Escrow Association of Washington site. There you can find definitions and explanations of the home buying process for Port Orchard Washington.

 

 

 

Let’s look at those 63 Port Orchard homes -

Average List Price

• $246,917 [April $246,162 -March -$245,815 February -$241,177 January - $245,351]
• $136 per sq ft

Average Sold Price

• $244,070 [April - $243,425 March -$241,747 February -$227,483 January -$239,603]
• $134 per sq ft

The average sq ft of these 63 Port Orchard homes was 1810 sq ft. These homes spent an average of 92 days on the market (DOM) The list to sale ratio for these homes was 98.84 percent. What that meas is that buyers offered 98.84 of what the seller requested.

Not a bad time to purchase a home in Port Orchard, Washington.  Prices are down, interest rates are at an all time low you might want to look at what it means to you.

What do these numbers mean? Is it a good time to buy? Is it a good time to sell. It all depends on your individual situation. I would rather buy in a buyers market and I would rather sell in a buyers market if I have to buy another home with the proceeds. I am a fan of the NORMAL market – everyone can feel more comfortable and real estate transactions are not as stressful.

 

So what is the absorption rate at this point in time? Check here for the definition of absorption rates – Absorption Rates
