Market Analysis for 22102 – Quarter End 3/31/11

Market Analysis for 22102 – Quarter End 3/31/11

 The following table and chart compare the number of active listings (the supply) to the number of properties sold or under contract (the demand) in the local real estate market of McLean 22102 by price range for the period from 9/30/10 – 3/31/11.  To get an enlarged view of the table or chart, click on them.

This analysis is a snapshot in time.  The real estate market constantly changes just like any other market.  However, this is an accurate picture of the local real estate market at this point in time.  Based on the balance, the market can be characterized three ways:

Buyers’ Market – More Active Listings (Supply) than Sales and Under Contract Listings (Demand)

Balanced Market – An Equal Number of Active Listings (Supply) vs. Sales and Under Contract Listings (Demand)

Sellers’ Market – More Sales and Under Contract Listings (Demand) than Active Listings (Supply)

22102 Summary

  • $700,000 – $1,199,999 – Sellers’ Market.  If you factor in the withdrawn and expired listings, this range is closer to balanced.
  • $1,200,000 – $1,499,999 – Balanced Market (without factoring in the withdrawn and expired listings)
  • $1,200,000 – $1,499,999 – If you factor in the amount of withdrawn and expired listings, the number of active listings would increase by 80% and shift the market from balanced to a buyers’ market.
  • $1,500,000 – $1,999,999 – Buyers’ Market (without factoring in the withdrawn and expired listings)
  • $1,500,000 – $1,999,999 – If you factor in the withdrawn and expired listings, the number of active listings would be 3 times the number of sold plus under contract listings.
  • $2,000,000 – $2,499,999 – Buyers’ Market.  The 1 withdrawn listing is negligibly significant.
  • $2,500,000 – $2,999,999 – Strong Buyers’ Market
  • $2,500,000 – $2,999,999 – There are 6 times the number of active listings as sold and under contract listings.
  • $3,000,000 and up – Buyers’ Market
  • $3,000,000 and up – There are over twice the number of active listings as sold and under contract listings.

Market Analysis Comparison for McLean, VA 22102 – Quarter End 3/31/10 vs. Quarter End 3/31/11

Market Analysis Comparison for McLean, VA 22102

Quarter End 3/31/10 vs. Quarter End 3/31/11

I compared my market analyses for McLean, VA 22102 for the quarters ending 3/31/10 and 3/31/11 and compiled the data first into a table, then charted the data.  The table and chart are below.

Summary of 22102 Comparison

All of the price ranges stayed virtually stable except the following two:

  • $2,000,000-$2,499,999 – between the first quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2011, this range became a weaker buyers’ market, or slightly better for sellers.
  • $3,000,000+ – between the first quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2011, this range also became a weaker buyers’ market.

From quarter end 3/31/10 to quarter end 3/31/11, the number of withdrawn and expired listings for the price range of $700,000-$899,000 increased from 4 to 10 (or more than double), and for the price range of $1,200,000-$1,499,999 increased from 2 to 12 (or six times).  This indicates that sellers are not getting the prices that they expect and are taking them off of the market.   For the price range of $2,000,000 – $2,499,999, the number of withdrawn and expired listings dropped from 7 to 1.  This indicates that sellers are getting the price that they expect for their houses.  The other price ranges stayed relatively unchanged.

Please refer to my previous post for the quarter end 3/31/10:

Comparison of Withdrawn and Expired Listings for 22102

Comparison of Withdrawn and Expired Listings for 22102

The changes in the number of Withdrawn and Expired listings from one year to the next or one quarter to the next gives a good indication of sellers’ expectations.

The numbers have been adjusted to exclude the properties that were put back on the market.

From quarter end 3/31/10 to quarter end 3/31/11, the number of withdrawn and expired listings for the price range of $700,000-$899,000 increased from 4 to 10 (or more than double), and for the price range of $1,200,000-$1,499,999 increased from 2 to 12 (or six times).  This indicates that more sellers are not getting the prices that they expect and are taking them off of the market.

For the price range of $2,000,000 – $2,499,999, the number of withdrawn and expired listings dropped from 7 to 1.  This indicates that more sellers are getting the price that they expect for their houses.

Price Reduction – 928 Dominion Reserve Drive, McLean, VA 22102

Price Reduction – 928 Dominion Reserve Drive, McLean, VA 22102

On May 9, 2011, the price was reduced from $2,895,637 to $2, 795,656 for the property located at 928 Dominion Reserve, McLean, VA 22102.  It has been on the market for 335 days. It was originally listed for $2,995,000 on 5/20/10, then reduced to $2,895,637 on 7/1/10. The number of days on the market is not accurately reflected in the multiple listing service because it was originally linked to an incorrect tax record. The original listing was withdrawn and a new listing linked to the correct tax record was created (which inadvertently reset the number of days on the market). For more information on this listing, here is a link to both the original listing and the new listing:
