THE MARKETPLACE ANNUAL REPORTPERFORMANCE OF SINGLE FAMILY HOMES IN SELECT CITIES OF KING AND SNOHOMISH COUNTIES
Q4 2015 MARKET REPORT
ANDY [email protected]
206.841.8084
Recently we’ve seen a global stock market correction and our first interest rate increase in 8 years. Locally we’ve seen double-digit drops in housing inventory and double-digit increases in sales. Fortunately, our short-term forecast indicates that it is still a great time to be BOTH a seller and buyer. For sellers, available homes on the market remain scarce. A “normal” Puget Sound market has 3-4 months housing supply. Currently King County has a 1 month inventory supply, Snohomish has 1.7, and double-digit price appreciation in many areas. With nearly 70% of housing produced projected as apartment building over the next few years, if you’re thinking of selling your residence, 2016 may be the best time in the foreseeable future - simply because of supply and demand. For buyers, mortgage rates were finally raised in December, but continue to hover near record lows of under 4%. We suggest buying ASAP because over the next few years, current rates could increase up to 50%, and housing inventory will continue to stay scarce. In addition, the federal government recently introduced new mandatory closing disclosure requirements (TRID) that will delay all financed closings by at least 1-2 weeks.
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” – George Santayana
Since January 2013 (when our market began to recover), we’ve seen a consistent trend when the calendar turns over to the new year: prices increase steadily through spring, level off during summer, and fall as the holidays approach. 2016 will most likely be different. Why? 1) It’s an election year without an incumbent presidential candidate. In 2000 and 2008, housing markets decreased and / or were flat. Unpredictability causes fear.2) We are seeing a housing market similar to that of the 2006/07 election period that preceded the housing market crash in 2008. Build-able land is scarce, and builders and buyers are overpaying with multiple offers over asking price. We are experiencing a large amount of new construction starts.3) Economic advisers are warning us that current trends are not sustainable, and we should heed the advice. When interest rates go up, affordability goes down. Where does that leave home prices? In the short-term, demand from foreign investors paying cash may continue to push pricing up. Those who rely on buyer financing will either rent, or adjust their real estate goals and buy “less” home than planned. In summary, we are expecting a housing shortage in 2016 and 2017. Contact your MSIR real estate professional to determine your optimal real estate goals and future, or for a customized, in-depth analysis on your area of interest. This is a call to action — the time to act is NOW!

This report focuses on single family homes in the cities where we conduct most business. While we’re a global brokerage, we mainly work on the Eastside of the Puget Sound region, Olympia to Bellingham. Our numbers only reflect the averages of the communities featured in this report but the trends still accurately reflect county-wide trends.
TOTAL $ VOLUME AND # OF SALESThe Total Dollar Volume increased an average of 22% in 2015 over 2014, from $16.7 billion to $19.6 billion. The Number of Sales increased 13%, from 33,918 in 2014 to 36,958 in 2015. These are the metrics we use to analzye the long-term trends in each market segment because they best summarize the general market activity over long periods of time.
AVERAGE PRICE PER SQUARE FOOTThe Price Per Square Foot ($/SqFt) increased 4% from 2014 to 2015, from $204 to $218. This metric helps identify trends in market segments when large numbers of transactions are considered together over a period of time, and also is useful when comparing two properties on an apples-to-apples basis. In this case, it helps us understand that properties in this region are increasing in value on a square-foot-basis, rather than growing in size.
AVERAGE DAYS ON MARKETThe Average Days on Market (DOM) decreased 11% from 2014 to 2015, from 67 to 59 days. DOM is a good measure of Liquidity in a real estate market. Liquidity determines how quickly an asset can be sold and usually increases in parallel with price transparency and fungible assets. In liquid markets, fewer days are needed to sell a property. In the Greater Seattle Region, homes are selling in the blink of an eye, making it a highly liquid market. Seattle boasts the second lowest DOM in the U.S.
CURRENT INVENTORY IN UNITSWith a surge of buyers and little increase in residential development, there is a shortage of inventory. The inventory of our market segments decreased 24%, from 4,710 units to 3,082 units. With decreased inventory and increased demand, it doesn’t look like the scramble for homes will let up in the near future.
