Home Price and Absorption Rates - How Does Your Home Stack Up?

Monday, February 11th, 2008

Let’s take a look at Effingham County first:

Price Range # Sold per yr Absorption Rate # of Active # of Months Supply
500,000 and up 4 0.333333333 18 54
400,000-499,999 7 0.583333333 16 27.42857143
300,000-399,999 49 4.083333333 96 23.51020408
200,000-299,999 143 11.91666667 200 16.78321678
100,000-199,999 513 42.75 375 8.771929825
0 - 99,999 64 5.333333333 32 6

So, what does this mean for your home? If you home is priced $500,000 and over, there is a 54 month supply of homes currently for sale. Typically the higher the price, the longer it takes to sell. You can definitely see that from this chart. If your home is listed $199,999 or below, you have the best chance of selling in a year.

Now, let's look at Chatham County (not including the islands, downtown Savannah, historic district, or the Southside):

Price Range # Sold per yr Absorption Rate # of Active # of Months Supply
500,000 and up 36 3 91 30.33333333

Free Admission Sunday - Museums and Historic Sites

Friday, February 8th, 2008

free.jpg

The last week, we have seen the words super used frequently. We had Super Bowl Sunday and the Giants upset the Patriots. We had Super Tuesday. Well, a few candidates thought it was super. In the Savannah area, we are having Super Museum (and Historic Site) Sunday.

On Sunday, about 40 museums and historic sites will open their doors to visitors usually between noon and 4 pm. During this time, there will be no cost for admission. Some museums or sites will have different hours for this “free” time. For your convenience, I will list all participants on Super Museum Sunday along with phone numbers.
