Plymouth and Northville Real Estate Values – the First Six Months of 2016 were Good!

| BAKE REAL ESTATE

It’s mid-summer and we now have data for the first six months of 2016! Our markets of Plymouth and Northville, both City and Township, remain strong and steady. The charts are fairly self-explanatory and locals know how intense the market is around us. The City of Plymouth continues to increase in value as the downtown area flourishes with new shops including the opening of Westborn Market. It’s heartwarming to see people walking downtown with their folding shopping trolleys on their way to do their grocery shopping! The City of Northville has also seen significant increases in value – especially in the downtown area where new businesses like Red Dot Coffee and the Center Street Grille have created a lot of excitement. The Townships of both Plymouth and Northville have shown very steady pricing and new development activity is on the rise once again in Northville Township.

Now open after an extensive renovation at 505 N. Center Street in Northville, the Red Dot Coffee Co. is set to raise the bar on coffee in town.  The building work has been incredible to watch progress.  We can’t wait to see what the interior looks like (and what the coffee tastes like too!). With the recent opening of the Center Street Grille, the Red Dot Coffee Co. promises to be a great destination in the City of Northville.

City of Northville and Northville Township Real Estate Values Continue to Rise in 2014

Northville Township Median Sales Price

It’s time once again to recap sales trends in our area with the Summer selling season now behind us. The City of Northville and Northville Township real estate markets continue to show good demand, limited supply, and consequently – steadily rising prices. Median sales prices for single family homes and condos are up again this year and near pre-recession highs.

If you live in the City of Northville, I’m sure you’ve heard your friends and neighbors talk about a house that sold quickly while another does not. Not every home will sell instantly for a high price – especially in the higher price ranges where there are fewer buyers and the selling process can take longer.  A home may also be priced too optimistically and may need a price adjustment to capture a buyer.

In the Township, prices are up while more supply is starting to come online. There are also more new construction options available as new developments begin to break ground.

Will the market go even higher in 2015 is something we can’t predict but there doesn’t appear to be any let up in demand at the moment.

Real estate values in the City of Northville continue to climb in 2014 with strong demand and limited supply – especially in the under $500,000 price range. Average sales prices are up and approaching pre-recession highs.  Desirable homes with good locations often sell in days with multiple offers – and oftentimes over asking price. Over the summer, there have been more homes coming on the market  providing buyers with a few more options (and more leverage).

City of Northville Median Sales Price - 10 Year Trend
City of Northville Median Sales Price – 10 Year Trend

Last week we published price and sales data for the City of Plymouth.  This week, we turn our attention to the City of Northville just up the road.  In 2013, sales data for listed homes showed steady increasing values but also limited inventory. While prices have recovered, sales volume has not which reflects the lack of inventory buyers are faced with when shopping for homes in the City of Northville.

With the local economy improving dramatically, the annual cycle of new buyers combined with buyers who delayed buying during the recession, have created a seller’s market. Recently, supply has improved slightly and homes aren’t as likely to sell instantly but time on market is always more dependent on pricing than supply/demand dynamics.

If you are considering buying or selling a home in the Northville area in 2014, feel free to contact us and we’d be happy to discuss your plans and offer our help.  Please also visit our homepage at www.bobbake.com.

City of Northville Real Estate Values Increasing Year over Year

| BAKE REAL ESTATE

The City of Northville Real Estate market showed relative strength in 2010 vs. 2009 as the economy began to recover in western Wayne County. The resurgence of Automotive and the overall stabilization of the region, combined with the Federal Tax Credit in 2010, all contributed to stronger consumer confidence and better values.

For 2010 vs. 2009, we’ve seen approx. 9 % fewer homes sold (31 vs. 34) but the average selling price increased from $232,313 in 2009 to $277,532 in 2010. Given the relatively small number of sales in the City and the effect of a few high value sales in 2010, the data can be a little misleading. Nevertheless, the trend does show an increase in both average and median sales prices year over year.  During the early part of 2010, the Tax Credit seemed to drive an increase in buying activity although some of this can be explained as ‘pull ahead’ sales.  The City of Northville Real Estate market has always remained attractive due to the historic homes, downtown shopping and restaurants, school system, parks, and much, much more.
