Real estate sales on the Outer Banks are trending up. It looks like it is going to be the best spring for the number of sales since 2005. Here’s a link to my monthly report: http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10116302/f/marketindicatorsmar12.pdf We still have a ton of inventory to get through but at least we have some good news!

Clear winter day on the Kitty Hawk Pier

Great interest rates, super values and clear, snowless days encouraged buyers to make smart buying decisions in January. This was the best January since 2005! Here’s a copy of our OBX Real Estate Market Report: http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10116302/f/marketindicatorsfeb12.pdf

November OBX Market Report

jeffobx — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 17:35:22 +0000

It looks like the Outer Banks real estate market is beginning to recover from Hurricane Irene. Here’s this month’s report and graphs. http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10116302/f/marketindicatorsnov11.pdf

Market Impacted By Irene

jeffobx — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 19:50:54 +0000

As expected the OBX real estate market was impacted by Hurricane Irene. Sales transactions were down a little over 13% from the day of the storm in August until the beginning of October. The largest segment affected was Hatteras Island. This was expected because NC 12 on Hatteras Island was impassible during this time period. Perhaps we’ll return to improved sales trend now that things are returning to normal. Here’s a link to this month’s detailed OBX Market report: http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10116302/f/marketindicatorsoct11.pdf

Hurricane Irene impacted sales last month. Page 3 of the report shows a significant reduction in sales agreements compared to August of 2010. Despite this bad weather event, there was still plenty of good news to report.

August OBX Market Update

jeffobx — Tue, 16 Aug 2011 20:06:28 +0000

It looks like sales are steady for this usually slower time of year (folks focus on vacation in summer and usually buy in the spring and fall). Sales activity is 5% above this time last year. Local Realtors expect more of the same for the rest of this year. Here’s this month’s market report: http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10116302/f/marketindicatorsaug11.pdf
