Almost 60% of the 2014 sales were between $500,000 and $750,000, and somewhat interestingly, a full one-third of the sales resulted from contracts which were ratified in the months of March and July. long cove YEAR 2012 2013 2014 SALES 19 28 18 AVG PRICE $666,653 $553,643 $639,295 HIGHEST SALE $1,355,000 $925,000 $1,400,000 LOWEST SALE $325,000 $356,000 $349,125 AVG DOM 242 150 164 palmetto dunes YEAR 2012 2013 2014 SALES 57 62 63 AVG PRICE $995,023 $947,952 $954,412 HIGHEST SALE $3,400,000 $4,500,000 $4,300,000 LOWEST SALE $335,000 $320,500 $320,000 SALES 19 31 34 AVG PRICE $496,411 $477,487 $514,411 HIGHEST SALE $890,000 $675,000 $1,035,000 LOWEST SALE $325,000 $348,500 $245,000 It was encouraging to see the average and median sales price for a home in Long Cove Club back up in 2014, and the average number of days required to sell remained under six months for the second consecutive year, even amongst a fairly abundant supply of inventory. Additionally, 2014 closed out with 5 homes under contract, which could help jumpstart 2015. AVG DOM 194 232 200 The number of PD home sales held steady in 2014, and it was even more rewarding to see a 10% reduction in the number of “distressed home sales” as compared to 2013. Luxury oceanfront homes and villas had a more challenging year with fewer sales and lower average sales prices than what we saw in 2013. AVG DOM 145 165 121 Not only did a few more sales close in 2014, but Palmetto Hall actually saw its highest sales price since the summer of 2006! Interestingly, the 2014 “high” sale was the second highest sale MLS has recorded to date in Palmetto Hall. Even without that one high sale, the average Palmetto Hall sale price in 2014 was higher than in 2013. palmetto hall YEAR 2012 2013 2014 High inventory hindered the Forest Beach market again in 2014, and the year closed out with nearly 50 active listings. Villa activity ended up fairly solid with 160 units sold, and 2 BR villas were the most active representing 74% of the total sales reported during the year. 2014 was another solid & balanced year in HHP as the , overall inventory dropped 20%. Although HHP had a slight drop in the average sales price, the number of homes sold increased for the fourth consecutive year and the 2014 median sale price increased by 3.75% over 2013. HHP remains one of the Island’s most active and reliable markets. indigo run YEAR 2012 2013 2014 Folly Field is a well-established beach community that typically has limited turnover with respect to home sales. However with its high concentration of villas, Folly Field saw 77 villa sales in 2014, a 22% increase in units sold when compared against 2013.
