The value direction and activity indicated above are taken from sales in Grand Traverse County using a 24 month comparison of the last year vs the 12 months prior. Value directions are for the entire county all value ranges and should only be used to identify trends and never used to apply an increase or decrease in market value for a specific property. The trend can be significantly influenced by more sales at the upper end of the value range or REO sales at the lower end of the value spectrum. To determine price changes for a specific property a much more detailed data search specific to that market segment should be completed.
The market continues to deteriorate, 30 year mortgage rates closed at 6.88% on Friday MND's Daily Mortgage Rate Index (mortgagenewsdaily.com) and are expected to continue rising. While inventory levels remain historically low, there is significant pressure on values with the quarter over quarter decline going further into the red. At some point if the trend continues it will get very very ugly. The data is not looking good, plan for the worst and hope for the best. Every adversity is someone's opportunity. Connect with foreclosure companies, connect with cash buyers looking to purchase foreclosures, connect with vacant landowners seeking to sell off a portion of their parcel to generate cash. Vacant land is one bright spot in the market with sales on the rise. Land Contract sales may come back into favor offering sellers a fixed rate of return and buyers a below market rate and lower closing costs. Educate sellers on seller financing options if the property is free and clear. These are just a few of the many opportunities in the coming market. The market is certainly changing, and we will all have to adapt to the changing opportunities.
