Market Activity - Annapolis Maryland - January 2012

Across the country according to one report inventory levels are down and demand is up.  That's great news, especially for December which can often be the slowest month in real estate (after August).  In Anne Arundel County Maryland inventory level is down 32.6% to a modest 2,688 active listings in December 2011 from June 2010 when inventory reach 3,928 active listings.  With about 7 months of inventory, Anne Arundel County has moved from a buyer's market towards a more balanced market.  Industry experts suggest that 6 months of inventory is where the market is balanced.  More than 6 months, it's a buyer's market and less than 6 months it's a sellers market.  Markets rarely stay balanced for long.  There's no guarantee that the local market will tip far enough to be characterized as a seller's market anytime soon.

What's likely to happen in the next few months?

The trend in declining inventory could be expected to continue until about March.  After March Annapolis and Anne Arundel County is poised to start the spring market.  And, there may be many sellers you are simply waiting for spring to come to market.  As you can see from the chart below, inventory peaks in June.   Demand follows a similar curve with the most homes sold in during the same time period.

What about the shadow inventory?

Bank owned foreclosures is one shadow inventory.  But there's another shadow inventory lurking in the wings of spring.  Not often considered are all the homeowners that want to sell, but, haven't been able to.  They may have let their listings expire and or withdrew them.  Some of these homeowners might have even given up and are just waiting to come back to market as soon as there's a glimmer of hope that they could sell.  Both the shadow inventory of bank owned homes and homeowners waiting in the the wings for better conditions could drive inventory levels back to recent highs.

Interest rates aren't enough!

Borrowing to purchase a home has never been more affordable than it has been over the last year.  Interest rates for 30-year fixed rate mortgages are at or below 4%.  That's simply an amazing rate.  The cost of buying a home is well below that of renting.  However, the rent-to-buy ratio remains high in our area continue to depress buyer's desire to own a home.  Unless prices come down further, despite low interest rates, buyers may continue to sit on the sidelines and simply wait and watch.  This is especially true for first-time home buyers.  Other renters anxious to buy a home again are those folks that force to rent having lost their homes to short-sales and foreclosures over the last three years.

This year what other dynamics might impact the spring housing market?

There is often optimism in the run up to the presidential election and euphoria that follows for the year afterwards.  The next two years should be very good for the stock brokers and real estate brokers alike since people will be buying with the idea that things are finally going to get better or selling with thoughts that things are going to turn for the worse.  We won't know that we've reached a tipping point until we can clearly see it in the rear view mirror.

Penultimate 2011 Sunset On Thompson Creek Off The Chesapeake Bay

Tonight was the penultimate sunset of the 2011 on Thompson Creek off the Chesapeake Bay in Stevensville Maryland and it was a good one.  The day was warm for this time of year.  The bright sunshine was welcome opposed to the often gray winter sky experienced this time of year.  I think the weather has been unseasonably mild.  Last winter cold winds relentlessly swept Kent Island.  Two winters ago there was snow on the ground from mid-December until well into March.  Perhaps there will be little or no snow this winter.  I know wishful thinking on my part - but - I can still wish, can't I?

 Penultimate 2011 Sunset on Thompson Creek Off The Chesapeake Bay

The water is always different, from day-to-day, from hour-to-hour, from minute-to-minute, it's almost never the same.  And tonight was no exception.  The creek water reflecting tonight's sunset was almost a mirror reflection.  I watched the penultimate sunset on Thompson Creek evolve from sunset to dusk, then to twilight, and finally into night.  There were some high flying geese looking for a landing spot.  There were several duck hunters still out on the water but I didn't hear any shots ring out.  There was a certain calm about the water and the sun setting on Thompson Creek in Stevensville Maryland this next to last day of 2011.

It's darker on Kent Island than on either the Western Shore where Annapolis is located or the other way towards the Eastern Shore.  At night there are often so many stars.  And in the chilled air of the winter night sky more stars are clearly visible than middle summer given heat and humidity.  When I got home I printed out the star map for tonight.  Rocky (my mixed lab from the Annapolis SPCA) and I will take a walk and I'll want to point out which stars are out tonight.

Stevensville Maryland is located on Kent Island which situated on the Chesapeake Bay and is closer to the Eastern Shore.  The Chesapeake Bay Bridge straddles the expanse between the two shores with its Eastern foot is squarely planted on Kent Island in Stevensville Maryland.  The Bay Bridge is metro-Washington, Baltimore, Virgina and Pennsylvania's gateway to the Atlantic Ocean beaches in Delaware and Maryland.

It has been a good year.

Santa's Sleigh and F-104 Fighter Jet Collide Over St. Michaels Maryland and Other Christmas News

Santa can still be seen picking up presents and rounding up reindeer following a collision over St. Michaels Maryland.  A freak accident between an F-104 fighter jet and santa's sleigh resulted in an emergency landing in a local homeowner's front yard.  Santa's will be grounded until the end of the year according to the homeowner.  Click Santa and Jet collision incident for the rest of the story and click more Santa and F-104 collision incident for more photographs.  This story and these pictures could come in handy, if needed, to explain why Santa didn't get someone what they wanted for Christmas.

Santa's Sleigh and F-104 Fighter Jet Collide Over St. Michaels Maryland

In other news, the latest Christmas spirit is manifesting itself in a phenomenon now known as "layaway angles".  This style of anonymous gift giving is when folks want to help someone one-on-one at Christmas.  So, these layaway angles have been stopping in around the area at layaway desks from Edgwater to Pasadena and paying off customer's bills.  Several well know stores are reporting that layaway angles have paid off the balances on layaway accounts ranging from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars.  Some very special people will have had a very special Christmas morning thanks to unknown layaway angles.

So whether you've been naughty or nice or just stopped in for some holiday cheer, Merry Christmas to all and to all I hope it was a good night!!!
