HomeOwners of ALLEN! Home Values under 600k are looking SOLID, for now.

If you have a home in Allen, you probably want the latest info on whether ALL THOSE GAINS are holding or if you are losing value.  Here is some info that will help us figure this out.


Past 90 Days Sales sorted by Price Range





The best way to tell if your home is gaining in value or losing value is to see WHAT PRICE RANGES are most active.  The peak of buyer activity is in the 400-500k range, with the 500-600k range coming in second.  Coming in at 3rd place is 350-400k range.


Not sure what your home would sell for in this market?  

Just schedule a quick conversation HERE so you can know.


The next chart will tell you the HEALTH of each Price Range, by looking at Days On Market (DOM).  Determine health by seeing which price ranges sell the quickest.







The DOM is the blue line, with the average Days on Market scale on the right side of the chart. By combining both data points, we can determine which price ranges are MOST HEALTHY and least healthy.  

 

Price Range Health Report


250-300k

It's RARE for homes to pop up in this price range, so we have to assume that if they do, it's because they are in super rough condition.  11 homes sold (on average) in less than 7 days on market.  Super Healthy (Due to Scarcity)


300-350k

20 homes sold in this price range.  These are mostly smaller starter homes and rough condition properties in need of repairs, updating, and upgrading (on the East side of 75).  Desperate buyers are willing to compromise on condition and level of "move-in readiness" to own a home in Allen.  This is where they enter the market, and they are putting these homes under contract within 11 days of them coming up for sale.  Very Healthy


350-400k

40 homes sold (on average) in about 12 days on market.  There are plenty of buyers in this price range but just not enough homes.  Expect solid values to CLIMB in this price range.  Demand dictates current and future values.  Very Healthy


400-500k

PEAK market activity HERE.  There is the saying that "there is safety in numbers", and this is indeed true here.  In this grouping, buyers are MOST ACTIVE, which means your home values are safe and even climbing slightly based on this data. Almost 90 homes sold with 13 average days on market, values are holding strong.  Very Healthy


500-600k

Almost identical to the 400-500k price range.  This IS the difference in upscale suburbs, buyers are willing to pay much more to live here.  So be confident that our current elevated interest rates are not going to dampen the party in this price range.  About 80 homes sold with 12 average days on market.  Very Healthy


600-700k

IF YOU were a buyer in this price range, your average mortgage payment (with a 5.7% interest rate) would be around $3,584.  Add in the property taxes of $8,800 per year and $200 per month for home insurance and the Total Budget Payment is closer to $4,517.  Almost 70 homes sold at an average of 17 days on the market, this represents the upper end of buyer demand with a steady supply of eligible purchasers chasing the home of their dreams.  Your values are currently holding but we will have to keep a watch on the average days on market to see if values will continue northward.  Healthy


700-800k

54 homes sold at an average 33 days on market... NOT GOOD.   There are 14 homes on the market right now with an average 56 days on market (so far).  The homes in this price range are going to lose some of their steam from previous years' gains.  Unhealthy


Wish you could sell your home without daily showings?

Read more on how you can get top dollar and enjoy your last days in your home.


800-900k

Almost 40 homes sold over the past 90 days and 15 days on the market.    There are currently enough buyers & sellers in the market to support values but that could teeter-totter in the wrong direction and become unbalanced very easily.  Could Easily Turn Unhealthy... Keep Watch for Changes.


900k +

Above 900k is difficult to determine due to the unique attributes of the homes and limited sales data.  Please contact me directly if you would like to know more about your home value in this price range.  You may have to right arrangement of amenities that strikes a chord with buyers and be able to keep your recent value gains.  Case by Case


So it's all about the interest rates Allenites!  You have gone to battle with the rising interest rates and MOST of your homes are keeping the huge value gains of the past couple of years.  The articles of gloom and doom from across the county in your newsfeed are not about homes like yours, Texas is just better.  Stay tuned here to keep in touch with how awesome Texas continues to be!

Crazy Like a Fox.... Buy Your Next Home BEFORE Selling?

Imagine a world where you purchase your next home, THEN get up to 6 months to sell your current one...   That's right! On this planet, there is no selling then buying stress.  You don't have to feverishly search for your next home AFTER accepting an offer on your current one.   Sounds rough?  Just ask anyone who has done it! Skeptical?  I would be too! If you never heard of this before, it's called a portfolio loan.  They come in many shapes & sizes, but this loan type allows a buyer to be payment free for up to 6 months on their next home .  It's only available through the normal Fannie Mae conventional loan (sorry, no FHA/VA or USDA) and is structured so payments on your next home start AFTER your sell your old home.  This gives our clients the ability to have their cake and eat it too!  Carefully choose your new home and complete the purchase process... Then take your time moving out and selling your existing home....

Sneak On In and Grab a Bite! The Together Family Kitchen

Every Thanksgiving, I have my routine.  As the heavenly smells start coming from the kitchen, it's only natural for me to sneak in and grab a quick bite of whatever tasty dish my wife is cooking up.  She doesn't mind, and even kinda encourages it.  A little sip here, a bite there and she makes me feel like I've contributed in some way to the process.  But growing up, My Mom didn't allow this type of collaboration (which is probably why I enjoy it so much now).  She would say, "When it's Finished!" That's what I heard, over and again.  What helped her cause was that my childhood home only had an 80 to 90 square foot kitchen , so it's not like I could make my way in there without being noticed.  If only it was slightly larger, maybe towards the middle of the floor plan and not locked away in the corner of the house.  THEN I would have been more welcome, and what chef wouldn't like a little bit of company as they experiment on different flavors ...
