We have seen artificial recoveries in the past, but the consistency of the numbers coupled with the lower days on market, the lower months of inventory, the lower percent of sales price to list price, and fewer short sales and foreclosures are all key indicators of market recovery.
Let’s take a look at June Statistics from the area between Navarre to Panama City and upwards to the State Line – this about 90 miles of beach east to west and about 30 miles north. The majority of the Emerald Coast, a large stretch of land. We have a total of 3179 homes on the market. Of those ONLY 13% are distressed (short sales or foreclosed properties). In the same stretch we have only 1637 condos on the market with only 6% being distressed.
