We just had a beautiful week in Seaside and I was pleasantly surprised to hear that the market seemed to be picking up. I heard from very good source that a couple of contacts were pending, and then on nthe web site I saw there were three others that were listed as Contract Pending.
Anyone else hear anything?

in Seaside:
27 actively listed homes
5 pending with contingencies
4 pending (in addition to the 5 above)
2 sold in the last 6 months.
I would say that business is picking up and the numbers support that.

I know so many people who are waiting for the bottom to come along before they buy, but in reality, unless you are looking at daily numbers, you won't notice the trends which are being formed until well after the fact. There may be better buys in the future for some properties, but there are many subdivisions, such as Seaside, where the homes were not purchased so much for investments, but rather, lifestyle, so we never saw people buying in there for quick flips. If you see something that you like, and you can afford it, why not buy it? If you are looking for short term gains, you might try your daily search at bleedingproperties.com, upsidedownproperties.com, etc. (I made up those names, but you know what I mean.)

All true.
We as well bought there for long term investment and to really just to enjoy the area with family.
Did see on the RE page for Seaside there was a lot (#1) in the back that was just reduced from $985k down to $599k, and it looks like the main reason was that buildout deadline is August 08. With all the approvals currently required to be build that might be pushing it even now.
There are some other lots back there that will start runing into tight timing.
That is a pretty good drop all at once but not unwarranted.

In our little village on 30A in Seagrove 3 properties have sold in the last few months. I haven't seen that happen for quite a while.

Congrats SJ.
What kind of contingencies are they asking for these days?

Congrats SJ.Thanks, but it is not my sale. Contingencies haven't changed much. Marking it as contingent, rather than pending, in the MLS, just allows the seller to continue to expose the property to potential buyers, until the contingencies are removed. Some typical contingencies are financing, inspections, insurance maximums, and feasibilty studies, which might include survey, checking zoning, wetlands analysis, etc.

I see that that two houses, each priced at $3.5 million, went under contract yesterday. One is in WaterColor and the other in Seaside. The Seaside house is priced at $1,306 per sq ft, and the WC home priced at $686 per sq ft.

SJ, do you know how the sales in Alys are going?Not sure. I don't think they've been entering the sales into the mls. I may have to go :whack: straighten them out. Surely they know the MLS Rules :roll: of entering closed sales, even if the developer is the seller.
