Sales on Anna Maria Island for 2016 continue to lag behind 2015. June, 2016 Y-T-D AMI sales were 195 (SF-120, Con-53, Dup-12, & Lot-10) down 18% from June, 2015 Y-T-D at 235 (SF-139, Con-71, Dup-10 & Lot-15). Last month Y-T-D we were behind 2015 Y-T-D by 20% & two months ago we were behind last year by 28% so we have been gaining and are still running about equal with 2014 which ended the year with 381 sales.
Sales in June 2016 were 33 (SF-22, Con-8, Dup-0 & Lot-3) down 9% from June 2015 at 36 (SF-20, Con-13, Dup-2 & Lot-1). The last 12 months sales (July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016) were 367 (SF-211, Con-110, Dup-27, Lot-19) down 10% from the previous 12 months (July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2015) at 409 (SF-234, Con-121, Dup-27 & Lot-27). Of the last 12 months sales only 2% or 9 (SF-5, Con-3, Dup-1 & Lot-0) were distressed properties (bank owned or short sales) compared to 6% or 24 (SF-14, Con-6, Dup-4 & Lot-0) in the previous 12 months (July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2015). Although we’re running 18% behind last year in sales, we are catching up and the low inventory is a contributing factor to the lower sales. Inventory is currently at 314 (SF-175, Con-96, Dup-15 & Lot-28). Inventory for the previous four months were 303, 308, 343 and 342.
These two investment properties are still available. The property at 214 Fir, a 3BR/2Bath each side duplex, three houses to the beach listed at $1,499,900 is a great rental with a 7% return and does $185,000 in gross annual rentals. Another great rental with a 6% return is 209 54th St. It’s a newly built (2014) 8 bedroom/6 bath, 2,936 sq. ft. home a block to the beach with peaks of the gulf and it does about $225,000 in gross annual rental and is listed at $2,300,000. These returns are exclusive of the increase in the value of the property. Call me for more information on these or other properties.
To summarize the market for the first six months of 2016, we continue to run behind 2015 but still will end the year as one of the top 3 years in sales since 2005. Pended properties continue to be strong and well above the average which could mean a continued strengthening of sales as we continue through the year. Pended properties (properties under contract) are at 42 (SF-23, Con-13, Dup-5 & Lot-1). Distressed properties continue to be non-existent and will continue to be so. There are currently no distressed properties in the inventory.

The distribution for Condo sales over the last 12 months also hasn’t changed much and was 85% <$500K, 12% $500K-$750K, 2% $750K – $1 million and 1% >$1 million.
