What's the average days on market for listings in North Port?? (Holiday: short sale, foreclosure)

[mylittletyguy]

I am just curious...I can't seem to find an accurate answer.

We are considering listing our home..probably in the 200-210 range for a 2000+ sq ft pool home.

Thoughts?

There is no average days on the market in general in North Port. It ranges from 1 to over 200 days. If you want to know the average days for a home that would be considered comparable to yours, then we would need more details - age of home, # beds and baths, location (zip code would be ok), deed restricted community or not, on a canal, size of lot - all of these factors make a difference. Also, keep in mind that some homes are over-priced or need work and will stay on the market longer. If you price your home within the comparables you will sell quicker.

so we have a built in 2002 3 BR with a Den, in 34286 zip, no deed restrictions on a double corner lot. The house is positioned in the middle of the 2 lots so there isn't someone right next to us, or behind us. No canal. We have upgraded almost everything. Stainless appliances, granite, tile on diagonal except in bedrooms where there is carpet. We have crown moulding though out as well. There is NOTHING that HAS to be done to the home, except maybe paint to your liking....otherwise it is a move in ready home.

There is currently one home on the market in North Port that is listed for $209,500, 2127 sq ft under air with a pool on Platt.

There were only two homes in the last six moths that have sold in the range of $200K-$210K. If I take homes from $175K-$230K, there are 29 homes. The average square footage is 2141 sq ft, listings price is $194,993, selling price is $188,171 and 78 days to contract. $87.96 per sq ft selling price.

There are currently 705 active listings in North Port. In the last six months there have been 884 homes sold in North Port from $11K-$470K for a home in Heron Creek. The average home in the last six months in North Port sold for $127,915, was 1603 sq ft under air, took 76 days to close and sold for $77.87 per sq ft.

I know it seems weird but, for me, it would help to know who the builder is--Adams, Windemere, Tenbusch, Holiday, Maronda, Walker, American Dream, American Homes, etc. Some models just sell better than others and it really does make a big difference. That being said, there are not too many pool homes right now and a price of $210K for a home over 2000 sq ft on a double lot would be a fair list price (of course, this is going on your description of the home). My house is in the 34286 zip and that is a very desirable zip code. It's pretty central to everything, the school district is decent, etc. Another plus is that it's season and there are a lot of buyers looking right now until after Easter.

If it's in good shape I would expect it to sell in 90 days if you list it at $210K

Good luck with it!

oh, sorry..2 baths also.

I think it is a Holiday Home...If I am not mistaken....we are not the orig owners...so I am not too sure. But I know it is not a windemere, or Adams.

North Port similar active listings in your zip code


North Port similar sold listings since 6/1/13 in your zip code


Your original question was average days on the market. These reports show that. Look in the column that says CDOM (Cumulative Days on Market). This does include all sales types (Normal, Short Sale and Bank Foreclosure). The normal sale actives are priced $179k and above. The normal sale solds are $163k and above. Some on are double lots, others are not. The search includes homes 1900 to 2100 sq ft under air, built 2000 to 2005.

Wow, TamRE...thank you. This is the exact info I was looking for. I wasn't sure how prepared we should be, and how crazy I would need to be with keeping the house up to being "show ready" since I have 2 kids and 2 dogs. Last time I sold a house I lived up north and if we didn't see it in the first few days, you missed out. I have never had a house on the market past 7 days being active and getting 2-3 showings per day. I guess it's a horse of a WAY different color down here!

I sold a home that was not on two lots and not in as desirable zip code but had a pool for $190K a few months ago. tI was also a Holiday. You can go here Search and put in your address to see who built your home. If it's 2020 sq ft under air and has a room to the left and a room to the right when you walk in the door then it's a Holiday. If so, I would suggest putting a wall and door up on one of those rooms and adding a very small closet. Then you can make it into a four bedroom, which will open the buyer possibilities up.
