A Glimpse of Things to Come in Hoboken Real Estate
Categories: For Buyers, For Sellers, Hoboken Condos, Market Analysis
If you’ve ever invested in the stock market you know that every prospectus says “past performance is not an indication of future results”. That may be true in the securities market but in real estate, the first question everyone asks is “what’s the market doing?” We’re going to be delving into that in depth over the next few weeks. I believe you can look to see trends in the real estate market because, among other reasons, properties don’t trade as quickly as securities and we don’t have huge institutional investors and computer trading messing up our market. So hear is a bit of a little taste of what’s to come:
- 678 – number of condo sales on the MLS in 2011 (versus 742 in 2010; an 8.6% decrease in unit volume)
- $500,098 – average sales price in 2011 (versus $496,462 in 2010; a .7% increase)
- $450,000 – median sales price in 2011 (versus $455,000 in 2010; a 1% decrease)
- 71 – average number of days on the market (versus 80 in 2010; and 11% decrease)
- 3.4% discount off asking price (versus 4.2% in 2010; a 19% decrease)
- $2,137,517 most expensive condo sold in 2011 (1125 Maxwell Lane)
- $162,500 least expensive condo sold in 2011 (607 1st St.)
- $339,066,714 total value of condos sold on the MLS in 2011
(Note – There are always a few agents who don’t enter their transactions into the MLS in a timely manner so I will update these numbers if needed over the next week.)

The November Hoboken Condo Sales Results
Categories: For Buyers, For Sellers, Hoboken Condos, Market Analysis, monthly results
I know it’s mid-December but better late than never. I especially wanted to get this out before the Holidays to keep you up to date on what is going on in the Hoboken condo market because in January we will have lots of new analysis for you to review – not just monthly results, but quarterly and yearly. It should be pretty interesting. We will be posting our annual Happy Holiday greeting later this week, too.
