Three Sixty At South Bay

360 Real Estate and Homes for Sale in Three Sixty at South Bay, of of the premier gated communities

Single Level Flats Condos Don’t Last Long on the Market

by

The real estate market in 360 South Bay has been white hot for over 2 years now.  The few times homes seem to stay on the market for long they are either overpriced or they have the unfortunately timing of listing when several others hit the market as well.    While the beginning of  the year showed signs of a slow down that was short lived and just about everything on the market went into escrow.

While some townhomes and single family style Terrace homes have lingered without quickly selling, that’s certainly not the case with the single level Flats condos.  Of the four that have sold this year only one was on the market double digits….and even that home sold for almost full price! Of the 4 Flats sales one was on the market 7 days, 5 days, 8 days and 55 days before selling.

As of this writing on 5/14 there are no active condos for sale in the Flats but check the current Three Sixty homes for sale to see the latest update on what’s for sale in this gated community.

Price Drops in 360 South Bay?

by

It wasn’t long ago that homes in 360 South Bay and “price drops” didn’t seem to go together.  In 2018 it seemed that almost every listing sold over list price, at list price or pretty darn quickly.  Either way homes didn’t sit on the market long enough to see list price decreases.  With the recent major uptick in available homes for sale, that has depressed demand a bit which has left some homes, especially the ones overpricced to begin with, in an unusual situation.

Of the 8 current homes for sale in Three Sixty South Bay, 3 of them have reduced the original list price.  What makes it even more interesting is that the price reductions haven’t seemed to have much of an impact as the three homes (as of 4/7) are still on the market.  Some of it is due to homes simply coming out priced too high as sellers want to exceed the previous high water mark and some is clearly due to a lessening of demand.  Only time will tell if this is a temporary blip or the start of a trend in 2019

7 Homes on The Market in 360 – If You Are An Interested Buyer….There’s No Better Time

by

One of the reasons that prices have continued to go up in 360 is that the demand for homes in the gated community never seemed to slow.  While demand is still strong there’s no doubt we’re in a bit of a slowdown in the 360 real estate market.  One thing that may finally settle the incredible “sellers”  market down a bit is an increase in available homes.  That seems to be changing and as of 3/15/19 there are 7 homes for sale in 360.  That’s far more than we’ve seen in the past few years and we’re aware of at least two other upcoming listings.

Buyers Being Able To Negotiate?

One of the challenges for buyers in the past years is that with the demand and number of other buyers, there has been very little ability to negotiate.  In a normal “balanced” market things are on a relatively even terms.  Homes sit on the market for a while, and buyers have the ability to try and negotiate good terms, whether that’s a good price or whether thats other items like repairs, timeframes, etc.

For Homebuyers Interested in 360….Now May Be The Time

With the increased home inventory it may be possible to purchase a home below the value of the last few sales.  As every home is different and every seller is different, there’s no guarantee of a good negotiation, but the market environment certainly makes that more likely.  If you are looking to buy a home in 360 we would love to help.  Contact us to tell us about your home search, or sign up for our FREE listing alerts and never miss a new 360 listing again.

Why Buy in 360 Instead of Rent?

by

Information for First Time Home Buyers

When you’re thinking about buying your first home, it’s essential for you to be confident in your decision to buy instead of rent. However, you may not know about the many great reasons to buy a home! Here are just a few of them:

Smart Investment
When you invest in a home, it offers the possibility for appreciation in value. The equity becomes yours when you’re still paying off your mortgage. You even get to live in it while your investment matures.

Tax Advantages
Since both mortgage interest and property taxes are tax deductible, homeownership can save you significant amounts of money every year.

Planned Housing Costs
You decide how much you spend on your home, including repairs and improvements. Unlike renters, homeowners with a fixed-rate loan can lock in their monthly housing costs.

Improvements to Your Taste
You can choose which improvements to make your own property, such as a deck, kitchen remodel, or new paint, instead of needing permission from your landlord.
