Real Estate Market – December Sales And 2021 Totals

December 2021 and Year-To-Date Residential Sales Numbers

Here’s an update on the local market in the Bayou Board of REALTORS® region, showing December 2021 and the Year-To-Date numbers.

Listings fell in December by almost a third compared to December 2020, which is also reflected in the overall trend for Months Supply and Inventory of Homes being lower YoY.

Pending sales were slightly down and closed sales were up 5%.

Both Median and Average sale prices were down for the month, but up YTD.

Speaking of Year-To-Date, New Listings were down 9%, but Pending and Closed Sales were both up.

What Does It Mean?

There is no doubt that we are still in a Seller’s market. There are less homes for sale than there are buyers looking.

If you are a buyer, it means that it may be a little tougher to find a deal. Homes are being put under contract almost immediately after being listed, so working with a dedicated REALTOR® can help you to get you in the home you want.

If you are a seller, this means that there are lots of buyers out there for your home. Things can move quickly! And with the Median Sales Price continually climbing, it makes even more sense to consider selling and harvest your equity appreciation.

Wow…It has been a while since I have posted an article here! I’ve been a bit busy with life and being a Real Estate Agent.

I just wanted share an update on how my real estate sales business did this year.

This was my first full year as a real estate agent, so it has allowed me to look over my numbers and performance to establish a baseline to grow from. Here are the highlights.

In the past year, I added 398 contacts to my database. What is the big deal about that? For every fifty people that you market to at least 12 times a year, you can expect one sale. So that allowed me to add four potential additional sales a year going forward.

Out of those contacts, 275 were potential buyers or sellers. That lead to a total of 87 sales opportunities, with 24 being listing opportunities and 63 being buyer opportunities.

I closed 16 total units with a production volume of $2,464,390. That was 7 listings at $880,500 and 9 buyer sales at $1,583,890. The average sale amount was $154,024.

I ended the year with 5 pending deals carried into 2022. 4 listings and 1 buyer. As of today, 17-Jan-2022, one of those listings has closed and buyer sale should close this week.

Now for the business breakdown…I had a Gross Revenue of $81,468. This included $68,581 of Gross Commission Income, $9,574 in referral Commission, and $3,308 of sales of oilfield testing equipment liquidated for a client.

Out of that, I paid $20,502 in “Company Dollar”, (split of my commission to the brokerage), $4,115 in Royalties to Keller Williams Realty International, $1,624 COGS, (client split of testing equipment sales), and $9,397 in operating expenses. OPEX includes advertising, training, dues, professional fees, etc.

Overall, I had a Gross Profit of $37,720 before taxes.

Not a bad start for my first full year! AND, this was while also serving as the Market Center Tech Trainer, in addition to the whole area shutting down for the whole month of September due to Hurricane Ida.
