Once a month, I post the statistics for all of the homes and condos that have sold in the 6 major cities of Baldwin County, including average selling prices, average price per square foot, days on the market, etc.
This weekly post is a little different. I feature the cities of Daphne, Gulf Shores, and Orange Beach, talking about what is currently on the market. If you're thinking about buying a single family home in these areas, it will give you a good idea of what our market is doing in the northern and southern sections of Baldwin County.
Properties For Sale Stats:
Daphne
- Median list price – $249,500
- Average price per square foot – $110
- Average days on the market – 143
- Percentage of homes with a price decrease – 30%
- Median House size – 2,350 square feet
Even though home inventory is becoming more tight and properties are selling a little quicker, market conditions are still favoring the buyer in Daphne. For the most part, inventory and pricing levels are relatively unchanged compared to recent weeks.
Gulf Shores
- Median list price – $390,000
- Average price per square foot – $182
- Average days on the market – 169
- Percentage of homes with a price decrease – 27%
- Median House size – 2,309 square feet
Market conditions for single-family homes in Gulf Shores are looking positive as the "days on the market" is trending down. However, home inventory and pricing is pretty much the same compared to the past few weeks. Conditions in Gulf Shores are still favoring the buyer.
Orange Beach
- Median list price – $415,000
- Average price per square foot – $190
- Average days on the market – 199
- Percentage of homes with a price decrease – 8%
- Median House size – 2,352 square feet
Conditions are relatively neutral in Orange Beach for the past few weeks, but inventory is beginning to grow compared to that of the demand from buyers. Due to this increase, we may see a decrease in pricing for single-family homes. Market conditions in Orange Beach are favoring the buyer.
If you're a buyer in Baldwin County, it truly is a good time and I'd love to work with you.
