“Sale To List Price Ratio” Reveals Important Information For Coral Gables Buyers
The “Sale To List Price Ratio” for a given neighborhood tells you on average the amount that homes are selling off of their asking price. For example, a “Sale/List Price Ratio” of 95% would indicate that the home sold just 5% off of its list price.
For single family homes this year (both waterfront and non-waterfront), Coral Gables has seen a ratio of 93%. This number has steadily increased from 91% in 2011, and 89% in 2009. The increase is likely due to a number of factors including rising values, bidding wars as a result of low inventory and more realistic sellers.
When we break down these figure between waterfront and non-waterfront homes in Coral Gables, we notice a very interesting fact. Waterfront homes tend to sell significantly more off of their list price than non-waterfront homes. This year, waterfront homes had a “Sale to List Price Ratio” of 88% whereas non-waterfront homes ran at 94%. This is very important information for someone who is beginning their home search in Coral Gables. It gives you a good idea of the price range you should be looking in, in order to end up at a sale price that is within your budget.
