Tahoe Donner 2nd QTR 09 Market Update

July 1, 2009


Tahoe Donner 2nd QTR 2009 Sales Analysis


2nd QTR Sales Analysis Chart for Tahoe Donner
This chart illustrates:
1) Number of Homes Sold during the 2nd QTR from 2004 through 2009.
2) Comparison of Median List Price to Median Sold Price for the 2nd QTR from 2004 through 2009.

The sales data for Tahoe Donner single family homes shows us that home sale prices right now are similar to sale prices in 2004 (before we hit the top of the market in 2005). However the number of homes sold, when comparing 2004 to 2009, shows a decrease of 50% .  For example,  94 single family homes sold in the 2nd QTR of 2004 compared to 47 in 2009!

What do these numbers tell us?

Buyers – now is the time to get serious. Prices are low, interest rates are low and there is good inventory. If you are in the position to purchase property, there are great opportunities.

Sellers- if you need to sell, now more than ever, you need to price your home for the current market and you have to get the price right, right from the start! If you price too high, you’ll get skipped over and you’ll spend your time making price reductions when you could have sold your house!


Price Category Comparison of Homes Sold


Tahoe Donner Sales Analysis by Price Category
This chart illustrates:
1) Number of Homes Sold QTR 2 in Tahoe Donner
2) Comparison of Price Categories of Homes Sold in Tahoe Donner

48 single family homes sold in Tahoe Donner during the 2nd quarter of 2009. 75% of these homes sold for under $750K (36), 17% of the homes sold for between $750K and $1 million dollars (8), 6.25 % sold for between $1 million dollars and $1.25 million dollars (3).  2% (or 1 home) sold for $1.25 million and there have been no sales in Tahoe Donner, during the 1st & 2nd Quarters of 2009, that have exceeded $1,250,000.  Well priced homes under $750K are getting the most attention.


Tahoe Donner Consecutive Quarterly Comparisons


Tahoe Donner QTR to QTR Sales Analysis
This chart illustrates:
1) Number of Homes Sold in Tahoe Donner 2nd QTR 2008 through 2nd QTR  2009
2) Comparison of Median List Price to Median Sold Price of Homes Sold in Tahoe Donner 2nd QTR 2008 through 2nd QTR  2009

The Quarterly data suggests that on average there is a 4% difference between the most recent Median List (or asking price) Price and Median Sold Price. In a Buyers Market, we would expect to see properties selling for less than the asking price.

The graph also shows us that Quarterly sales are down 4% when compared with the same time last year (2nd QTR 2008 and 2nd QTR 2009), however; sales have increased 28% from QTR 1 to QTR 2 in 2009. We expect stronger sales in July, August and September. Let’s hope this is a trend!

If you are a buyer or a seller or just have questions, we would love to talk with you. We are easy to get a hold of. Send us an email, karen@huntoonrealestate.com or give us a call at 530-412-0583.

Annual 2008 Tahoe Donner Real Estate Market Summary

February 9, 2009

We all watched the 2008 Real Estate Market with anticipation. With housing prices falling, an unsteady economy and jobs disappearing many people had to make big changes. It is important to remind ourselves that all down cycles eventually trail off and come to and end. While we saw prices going down and homes going into foreclosure some sellers were in a position to take advantage of the market and sold their current properties and bought into larger or better properties. Buyers that were ready to make purchases and “hopped off the proverbial fence” also made some good investments.

SINGLE FAMILY HOMES

Median ”NUMBER” of Single Family Homes Sold in 2008…
indicates Tahoe Donner still maintains the best value in Truckee. While sales of single family homes in the greater Truckee area fell by 5% from 2007 to 2008, in Tahoe Donner single family homes sales increased 9.04% from 2007.

Median ”LISTING PRICES” for Single Family Homes in 2008…
were not significantly different than listing prices in 2007. The median listing price for a single family home in Tahoe Donner in 2007 was $699K and in 2008 the median listing price for a single family home in Tahoe Donner went down to $695K.

Median “SOLD PRICES” for Single Family Homes in 2008…
went down 2.2% from “Sold” prices of Tahoe Donner single family homes in 2007. The median sold price in 2007 was $675K and the median sold price in 2008 was $660K.

Which price range was hottest in Tahoe Donner for 2008 for single family homes?
46% (88 out of 193) of the single family homes sold in Tahoe Donner in 2008 were between $500K and $750K. The median sold price was $675K. Only 1% of single family homes sold in Tahoe Donner in 2008 were over $1.5 million.

What does all of this mean?

For Buyers, we don’t expect to see home prices fall substantially in 2009. The general trend shows that the downward spiral of prices has settled and the increase in the number of Tahoe Donner sales shows us that people are buying!  If you are interested in purchasing Tahoe Donner property, take advantage of the low prices and low interest rates. Although prices may not rise soon interest rates likely will, so the short term is the best buying scenario. Take advantage of this opportunity to buy. 

For Sellers,it looks like home prices have settled. Prices probably aren’t going to fall substantially in 2009 and on the flip side, prices won’t rise in the near future. If you have been thinking about or needing to sell, the most sound advice is to price correctly, get your house on the market and entice the buyers while interest rates are low. 

CONDOS and LOTS:

2008 Condo sales in Tahoe Donner were down 41% (32 to 19) from 2007 and the median sold price of condos was down by 8.5% ($414,450 to $379K).

2008 Lot sales in Tahoe Donner were down 26% (23 to 17) from 2007 and the median sold price was down 12.3% ($285K to $250K).

The data for our Annual 2008 Tahoe Donner Real Estate Market Summary is retrieved from the Tahoe Sierra Board of Realtors and we use “median data” to make our comparisons and draw conclusions on trends or general tendencies. Information derived from “median data” is often used as an indicator of the strength and the direction of the real estate market.
