5/29/10 - Average Chance of selling for REO or Shortsale = 33.53%
5/29/10 - Average Chance of selling for Regular Seller = 3.47%
The chart above shows how the private market (regular sellers) is being affected by the massive increase in REO and Shortsale sales. The numbers for 2007, 2008 and 2009 are actual, 2010 is projected based on the past percentage of increases and declines. Our prediction for 2010 is that the end of the year will see over 51% of all sales being REO or Shortsales. Overall there will be a slight increase in number of closings however private sellers will see an 11% decline in their sales. Shortsales will exceed REO sales. Prepare for a hefty decline in median and average prices on the Grand Strand. Despite what local media reports on our markets, the data posted on this website is ACTUAL. It may not be rosey, but these are the facts.
The BEGINNING of the decline in VALUE has just started.


Immediately below are the year over year changes broken down month by month based on the actual sold market. Need help figuring out what all these numbers mean? Call anytime...free...(843) 424-7500.
As always, bringing you the FACTS not the FICTION on real estate conditions in Myrtle Beach.
