Ormond By The Sea condo market

The number of condos on the market in Ormond By The Sea seems to have stabilized recently. The numbers no longer appear to be rising as the were in 2006. Prices have been coming down and there are a few condos currently pending sales. These are hopeful signs that the worst may be behind us and the condo mareket will rebound soon. The bad news for sellers is the the lower values may be what drives the upturn in sales so you can expect your condo to sell for 50,000 to 100,000 less that the peak 2005 values. The good news? Maybe the reduced values will mean lower tax bills.

The survey says....

Some good news amid a flurry of reports about the downturn in real estate. Despite all the gloomy reports, Americans still believe that real estate is a good investment. A poll of 2,000 households in the third quarter of 2006 by the National Association of Home Builders found that more than 80 percent were confident the value of their home would rise during the next five years, and slightly less than 70 percent said their home remained their most valuable investment.
