ABSORPTION RATE


The absorption rate is a measurement of how long the current inventory of properties would last at the current rate of sales. For example, in 2008 (a buyers market) the rate reach 23.45. This means that the rate of sales in August of 2008, there were 23 months of home inventory on market. In September of 2020, the absorption rate of 1.93 (sellers market) means that there are very few options for buyers and only two months of inventory available.

Adam's Insight: THE INCREASE IS COMING

Absorption rate is an interesting statistic. If a single home was not listed, in 1.15 months every home would be sold with the current demand. The statistic can be tricky, because million dollar homes and homes that need a gut job can throw off the measurement. A 1.15 absorption rate means that we are in a sellers market. A stable market is around 4.0, this means that we have a long ways to go.

Adam's Insight: EVERY INCREASE IS HELPFUL

The City of Cocoa just doesn't have much for sale. If you want to buy in Cocoa you may need to sit back and wait. The inventory of homes is slowly increasing, but it is a great time to sell. We can still earn you 15% more than I believe you will see in a year from now.

Adam's Insight: AS INVENTORY INCREASES, PRICES WILL FALL BUT NOT TODAY

Home values are increasing at an alarming rate. The average sales price does not necessarily measure the value of a home, but it is a strong indicator of home prices. The average home in Brevard County has increased $50,000 in the last year. If you choose a good real estate agent your home value can increase even more.

Adam's Insight: HOW CAN YOU SHORT SELL WHEN PRICES ARE THIS HIGH

It is hard to short sell when prices are this high. We have surpassed the 2006 bubble and now everything has equity. Anyone short selling should receive an award for doing the impossible.
