Higher Prices Causing More Listings?

by | Feb 18, 2013 | Inventory, North County Coastal, Thinking of Buying? | 10 comments

Is the thought of higher prices causing more people to list?

Not yet, though the list-price-per-sf average is 9% above recent years:

NSDCC Detached-Home New Listings between Jan 1 – Feb 15

Year # of New Listings Avg LP-Per-SF
2010
663
$466/sf
2011
747
$460/sf
2012
620
$466/sf
2013
604
$507/sf

Last year there were 476 new listings in March, so hopefully we’ll see 400-450 this year. Will there be enough to go around?

    Too bad, but he had a great life and built a world class franchise. I fear his boy isn’t up to the task.

    Good point. A normal person expected to fill the shoes of a super high functioning dad can’t be all peaches and cream.

    The way he stepped out of the limelight and let the kids take over and make their own mistakes is a great lesson.

    Who else has done that?

    Very true. Jerry wasn’t your typical Master Of The Universe clinging to control to the bitter end. But I do wish he’d of brought back Phil and passed on Dwightmare!

    Chicky baby is gone….Dr Buss is gone……Jerry West left the organization a long time ago.

    Is there any reason for me to remain a Lakers fan after Kobe retires? Jimmy Buss is a train wreck and he and Jeanie are infighting for control of the franchise.

    On a side note, the first time my wife met my family (Father, brother, sister in law) was at a Lakers playoff game. It was 1995 Game 3 against the Spurs at the GW Forum!!! Good times….good times.

    I met Dr. Buss at a Laker pre-season game in San Diego – just a regular guy.

    The kids will do everything to get LeBron to opt-out of his Heat contract in 2014, but if they don’t have a quality, younger supporting cast he probably won’t come and then we’ll just be has-beens like all the rest.
