2media Info Market Update for NEWPORT BEACH REAL ESTATE INFO 22Media Info | http://www.2mediainfo.com

PRICE

The market seems to have paused around this plateau. The Market Action Index is a good leading indicator for the durability of this trend.

QUARTILE PRICES

Price weakness is evident almost across the board. Quartiles 2, 3, and 4 have been in price decline in recent weeks, with Quartile 1 remaining basically flat. Look to the Market Action Index as a leading indicator of the bottom of the market. Often, we find insights by watching pricing trends within the quartile segments.

2media Info Market Update for NEWPORT BEACH HOUSE 2Media Info | http://www.2mediainfo.com

We’re seeing fairly unusual market conditions as prices have been in a downward trend but price per square foot is actually increasing. (Buyers are paying less and getting less home for their money.) Anomalies like these can be attributed to micro-location variables.

PRICE AND VALUE

INVENTORY

Inventory has been falling in recent weeks. Note that declining inventory alone does not signal a

strengthening market. Look to the Market Action Index and Days on Market trends to gauge whether buyer interest is changing with the available supply.

2media Info Market Update for NEWPORT BEACH HOUSES 42Media Info | http://www.2mediainfo.com

The NEWPORT BEACH market is currently quite strongly in the Buyer’s Market zone (below 30). The 90-day Market Action Index stands at 15. With several months of inventory available at the current sales rate, buyers should find ample choice. Home sales have been exceeding

new inventory for several weeks. However because of excess inventory, prices have not yet

stopped falling. Should the sales trend continue, expect prices to level off soon and potentially to resume their climb from there. Watch prices as the market transitions from a Buyer’s market

to a Seller’s market.

The Market Action Index (MAI) illustrates the balance between supply and demand

using a statistical function of the current rate of sale versus current inventory.

Newport rentals

An MAI value greater than 30 typically indicates a “Seller’s Market” (a.k.a. “Hot

Market”) because demand is high enough to quickly gobble up available supply. A

hot market will typically cause prices to rise. MAI values below 30 indicate a

“Buyer’s Market” (a.k.a. “Cold Market”) where the inventory of already-listed homes

is sufficient to last several months at the current rate of sales. A cold market will

typically cause prices to fall.

Residential house prices are a function of supply and demand, and market MARKET ACTION INDEX

conditions can be characterized by analyzing those factors. Watch this index for

sustained changes: if the index falls into the Buyer’s Market zone for a long period,

prices are likely in for a downward correction.

Not surprisingly given the overall Market Action Index, all quartiles are in the Buyer’s Market zone with several months of inventory given the current rate of demand for homes in the quartile. Watch the quartile for changes before the overall market shifts. Often one end

of the market (e.g. the low end) will improve and signal a strengthening market before the whole group changes.

The quartiles can help you answer the question, “How hot is the market for homes

in my price range?”

PRICE

Prices hit another all time high this week. Given current conditions, prices continue to march higher. A persistent drop of the Market Action Index into the Buyer’s zone will be a leading indicator of the price strength subsiding.

QUARTILE PRICES

Pricing in the middle of the market is in an up trend lately, while Quartiles 1 and 4 are mixed. The Market Action Index for Quartiles 1 and 4 can tell us whether they are about to resume an upward price trend or whether we’re at the beginning of a decline. Often, we find insights by watching pricing trends within the quartile segments.

2media Info Market Update for NEWPORT COAST real estate agent 32Media Info | http://www.2mediainfo.com

While prices have been basically flat, the price per square foot has been heading downward. While not a sign of broad strength in a market, larger homes are coming more available and buyers are tending to get more home for their money.

PRICE AND VALUE

INVENTORY

Inventory has been relatively steady around these levels in recent weeks.

2media Info Market Update for NEWPORT COAST realty 42Media Info | http://www.2mediainfo.com

The NEWPORT COAST market is currently quite strongly in the Buyer’s Market zone (below 30). The 90-day Market Action Index stands at 12. With several months of inventory available at the current sales rate, buyers should find ample choice. Home sales have been exceeding

new inventory for several weeks. Since this is a Buyer’s market prices are not yet moving higher as excess inventory is consumed. However, the as supply and demand trends continue, the market moves into the Seller’s zone, and we are likely to see upward pressure on pricing.

The Market Action Index (MAI) illustrates the balance between supply and demand

using a statistical function of the current rate of sale versus current inventory.

An MAI value greater than 30 typically indicates a “Seller’s Market” (a.k.a. “Hot

Market”) because demand is high enough to quickly gobble up available supply. A

hot market will typically cause prices to rise. MAI values below 30 indicate a

“Buyer’s Market” (a.k.a. “Cold Market”) where the inventory of already-listed homes

is sufficient to last several months at the current rate of sales. A cold market will

typically cause prices to fall.

Residential house prices are a function of supply and demand, and market MARKET ACTION INDEX

conditions can be characterized by analyzing those factors. Watch this index for

sustained changes: if the index falls into the Buyer’s Market zone for a long period,

prices are likely in for a downward correction.

Not surprisingly given the overall Market Action Index, all quartiles are in the Buyer’s Market zone with several months of inventory given the current rate of demand for homes in the quartile. Watch the quartile for changes before the overall market shifts. Often one end

of the market (e.g. the low end) will improve and signal a strengthening market before the whole group changes.

The NEWPORT BEACH market is currently quite strongly in the Buyer’s Market zone (below 30). The 90-day Market Action Index stands at 13. With several months of inventory available at the current sales rate, buyers should find ample choice. The market has settled in at a relative stasis in inventory and sales conditions. It’s a Buyer’s market that has seen prices trend

lower. Expect that consistent up trends in demand will be required before price trends change

significantly.  These trends also affect similar neighborhoods in the Newport Beach area that include Balboa Island real estate, Lido Island real estate, Spyglass real estate, Harbor View, Bonita Canyon, Big Canyon, and Balboa Penninsula.

The Market Action Index (MAI) illustrates the balance between supply and demand

using a statistical function of the current rate of sale versus current inventory.

An MAI value greater than 30 typically indicates a “Seller’s Market” (a.k.a. “Hot

Market”) because demand is high enough to quickly gobble up available supply. A

hot market will typically cause prices to rise. MAI values below 30 indicate a

“Buyer’s Market” (a.k.a. “Cold Market”) where the inventory of already-listed homes

is sufficient to last several months at the current rate of sales. A cold market will

typically cause prices to fall.

Residential house prices are a function of supply and demand, and market MARKET ACTION INDEX

conditions can be characterized by analyzing those factors. Watch this index for

sustained changes: if the index falls into the Buyer’s Market zone for a long period,

prices are likely in for a downward correction.

of the market (e.g. the low end) will improve and signal a strengthening market before the whole group changes. The median single family home price in NEWPORT BEACH 92661 this week is $2,825,000 Inventory and days-on-market are climbing, while the Market Action Index has been flat recently. The trends point to a weakening market.

PRICE

Again this week in this zip code we see a downward notch for prices. Pricing has been weak in recent weeks and versus their absolute high level. At this point, we will be looking for a persistent upward shift in the Market Action Index as a leading indicator for a trough in prices.
