Lake Havasu Real Estate Market Update - August Numbers


Lake Havasu Real Estate August Market Report
September 10, 2013
Written By: Bobby Lewis of Coldwell Banker

Lake Havasu home values continued to increase in August 2013 with the median home sales price up 9.1% and the average sales price up 10.3% over August 2012.  Market Values lag behind the peak levels of 2006 but they have consistently inched closer over the past year.  Lake Havasu foreclosed home inventory continues to decline.

Property inventory available for sale as of August was 575 inching upward 3.2% from the previous month.  Total home sales in August were 118 up 14.6% from August 2012.  With the upcoming winter selling season just around the corner we expect to see Lake Havasu area home values continue to increase over the next year barring not major unexpected events occur.

LAKE HAVASU RENTAL MARKET

The residential rental market vacancy rate remains very low.  Our Coldwell Banker rental department (the largest in town) remains nearly out of available rentals with a vacancy rate in August of only 4%.  For landlords and investors, rental vacancy is nearly a non-issue as homes in good condition and with appropriate rental rates rent nearly immediately.

LAKE HAVASU MARKET STATISTICS

Year to date sales are up 17.4% over last year's year to date sales as of the end of August.

Important August Lake Havasu Real Estate Numbers:

August property sales: 118

July Median Sales Price: $185,450 (up 9.1% year over year)

After reviewing the numbers, you might be asking yourself if Lake Havasu real estate is about to boom again.  The honest answer is nobody knows.  Many indicators look good and we expect to see market improvement to continue but only time will tell. 

As a buyer considering Lake Havasu, you can rest assured that few if any, vacation market locations still exist in the western United States that remain as affordable and fun with warm and sunny winter weather, outstanding summer pleasure boating, and overlooking a stunningly scenic lake...and all within a few hours drive of Las Vegas, Phoenix and Southern California.

  6. When I was introduced to Mr. Pedro ( A Loan Officer), I was entering the market as a first time home buyer.
    My needs were a bit different and I had loads of questions, before he sent me my pre-approval letter, he called to speak with me about what it meant and what could change. He made himself available to me at pretty much any hour via email and texts, he was very responsive and knowledgeable. He’s also very straightforward, I explained to him what my expectations were in terms of closing time and other particulars. He said he would meet those expectations but he surpassed them. I closed so quickly my realtor and the seller of course were excited about that. But as a buyer I appreciated being walked through the process in a succinct yet thorough fashion. From pre-approval to closing- the journey was so seamless and I consider myself lucky because I’ve heard horror stories about the internet . I recommend A loan officer, Pedro Jerome contact email: pedroloanss@gmail.com & Whatsapp Number :+18632310632 to anyone looking for a loan in any market.
