COMMENTARY

A great year in 2010 was followed by even higher sales in 2011. However, as opposed to last year when we saw an increase in both sales AND average sales price, the average sales price of a home in Pepper Pike decreased from last year. The activity in the luxury home market ( those priced over $500,000) was decent with 25 sales. Although not as strong as 2010, it was much better than the 14 luxury homes that sold in 2009.

In addition to looking at Pepper Pike statistics, we also think it's important to note real estate activity in the other two suburbs that are also part of the Orange School District ( Moreland Hills and Orange ). Both Moreland Hills and Orange saw an increase in the average price of a home in 2011. Moreland Hills saw an increase in sales compared to 2010 while Orange saw sales numbers decrease.

Overall, the numbers indicate that the worst is behind us although the local real estate market is still moving along very slowly.  There have been some positive signs in the economy which will hopefully help the local housing market. 

There are some fantastic deals on homes in Pepper Pike right now, and continued low rates make this a great time to buy.

Pepper Pike is a very small community on the east side of Cleveland. It is in close proximity to the airport and downtown Cleveland, making it a popular destination for people relocating to Cleveland.

Commentary

It's hard to believe but the year is half way over. In the beginning of the year, we were curious see how things would fare as the second half of 2010 ended on a slow note compared to the first half. As you can see from the figures above, the number of sales is actually higher than last year. Although this may not seem important, last year's figures were inflated as a result of the first time buyer tax credit. Taking things into consideration, we conclude that 2011 is doing fairly well here in Solon.

Even though the average sales price is off a little from last year, the figures are a bit misleading. There were quite a few lower-end sales priced under $100,000. This was caused by a fairly large amount of distressed properties selling, many of which had been lingering on the market since last year.

In terms of Solon luxury homes, numbers are similar to last year. Sales this year are now at 13 with an average price of $628,846 and last years numbers at the half way point were almost identical at 14 and $627,304 respectively.

Moving forward, there are 42 homes currently under contract, 4 of which are luxury homes, and still a lot of buyers on the sidelines. We anticipate July to be busy as many buyers are looking to move into Solon before the school year begins

Cleveland Oh Luxury Homes - Market Report First Quarter 2011

The following is our first quarter market report for Cleveland Ohio luxury homes, specifically the east side suburbs including: Beachwood, Bentleyville, Chagrin Falls, Cleveland Heights, Gates Mills, Hunting Valley, Moreland Hills, Orange, Pepper Pike, Shaker Heights, and Solon.  In this report, we will first list all luxury home sales during the first three months of this year, make a comparison between the first quarter this year to the first quarter of 2010, and finally give our commentary. A luxury home in the Cleveland Ohio market is considered any home that sells for $500,000 or greater.

ALL LUXURY HOME SALES IN CLEVELAND OH ( EAST SIDE ) FIRST QUARTER 2011

All Sales                          # of homes sold         Ave. Sales Price 

First Quarter 2011              20                         $691,425

First Quarter 2010              26                         $708,673

Source: NEOHREX

SUMMARY

While both sales and average sales price of luxury homes here in Cleveland were lower during the first quarter of this year, we are seeing some signs of optimism. There are currently 31 pending transactions, several over $2,000,000. These should transfer within the next 60 days and really make a difference in the overall numbers.

Recently, there have been many published reports regarding the attitude of luxury consumers. Overall, there is a feeling that they are feeling more comfortable now making large purchases compared to a year ago. The reason is mostly the recent gains in the stock market, decrease in unemployment, and a general better outlook for the economy. Here is Cleveland, we saw a 50% increase in luxury car sales during the first quarter of this year, so perhaps the luxury home sector will also see gains as we move forward.

There is still a rather large inventory of luxury homes available. This means that luxury home sellers must price their homes aggressively if they want to sell. From a buyers perspective, it has never been a better time to buy.

Twinsburg OH Real Estate 44087 - Home Values Report First Quarter 2011

In this report, we will first list all Twinsburg Oh home sales in the 44087 zip code for last month, and then give a comparison to the first quarter this year versus 2010. Commentary will follow. 

TWINSBURG OH HOME SALES MARCH 2O11

All Sales                          # of homes sold         Ave. Sales Price 

First Quarter 2011              28                         $175,550

First Quarter 2010              33                         $185,583

March 2011                         12                         $170,442

March 2010                         15                         $175,423

SUMMARY

Homes sales and the average sales price were down during the first quarter of this year. In terms of sales, last year saw a surge of activity due to the home buyer tax credit. So, we anticipate sales to be lower at least through the first half of this year compared to 2010. While the average sales price did go down compared to last year, we believe it is a little too early to determine if this is a trend that will continue throughout the year.

When looking at home values in Twinsburg, the above statistics cannot be used to make a blanket statement on every home in the market. There are certainly neighborhoods and price points that are deemed more desirable by local home buyers, and these areas will often hold their value even if overall statistics show a slight downward trend.

If you are looking to buy or sell a home in Twinsburg, the best way to find out what your home is worth is to enlist the services of a local real estate agent. There is no substitute for the market knowledge that an agent can give you.

Moreland Hills OH 44022 - First Quarter Market Report 2011

Here is our first quarter market report for Moreland Hills Oh  real estate, complete with a list of all sold homes and a comparison to the same time period in 2010.

All Sold Homes in the zip code 44022 - Moreland Hills, Oh:

All Sales                          # of homes sold         Ave. Sales Price 

First Quarter 2011                4                         $478,750

First Quarter 2010                7                         $424,857

Source: NEOHREX

Commentary - As you can see from the numbers, there are typically not a lot of sales in the exclusive community of Moreland Hills Oh. We typically see between 30-40 home sales per year and anticipate things picking up a bit during the rest of the year. 

A recent article showed sales of luxury cars here in Northeast Ohio up 50% during the first quarter of the year, so we are hopeful that sales of luxury homes will follow suit. The rough winter weather we experienced over the last few months certainly didn't help the local real estate market, and many local communities saw a decrease in sales during he first quarter.

Moreland Hills is a fairly affluent area of luxury homes, many that sit on 2+ wooded acres. Moreland Hills is in close proximity to the airport and downtown Cleveland, making it a popular destination for people relocating to Cleveland.
