Claridge at Pelican Bay

Claridge at Pelican Bay has had a great past 12 months and is still attracting ready, willing and able buyers!  Here's the current Claridge at Pelican Bay real estate statistics:


  • 3 Claridge at Pelican Bay condos for sale.
  • 1 Claridge at Pelican Bay pending contract.
  • 5 Claridge at Pelican Bay sales during the past 12 months.
There's currently only 7 months of inventory in Claridge at Pelican Bay making this another under-supplied Pelican Bay community at this time.  The real interesting story about Claridge at Pelican Bay isn't so much about the under-supply of inventory more than what the difference between list price and sales price ratio is coming in at a whopping 97%.  That's the highest I've seen since reporting this season which is fabulous news for Claridge at Pelican Bay condo owners. 

Pricing has clearly increased as a result with Claridge at Pelican Bay list prices increasing on average per total at approximately 25%. To be fair, there are two higher floors on the market at this time which typically will command a higher price unless there's something negative going on with the property condition. 

Another outstanding Claridge at Pelican Bay real estate statistic is the fact that market time in Claridge has decreased a whopping 48%.  This statistic was pulled based on what is currently on the market and what has sold during the past 12 months.  Active Claridge condos stand at 195 days due to one of the units being what I would consider over-priced even for the current Claridge market success. 

The last unit to successfully negotiate a contract was only on the market 58 days before going under contract.  That's pretty quick for Pelican Bay and further proof that if you price it right to begin with you can defy the laws of market time and come out ahead.  While we're talking about that I might add that your chances of a buyer competition are far greater if you're priced well compared to over priced.  This could increase your chances of netting more when the final bell dings.

If you're a Claridge at Pelican Bay Buyer:  While there are some nice listings in Claridge at this time, I'm not sure there's anything that will completely blow your socks off. I'm also not sure we'll be able to do better than some past buyers have done on negotiating with such a small window of wiggle room in the statistics (only 3%)  The best thing for you to do is to take a peek, review the numbers and determine what the unit is worth to you before going forward.  It would probably not hurt you to venture outside of Claridge (if you have other interests) just in case you find you can't cut the deal you really want.  There are plenty of other Pelican Bay high-rise condos for sale with 16 months of Pelican Bay high-rise inventory still on the market BUT something for you to consider is the success Claridge at Pelican Bay has had in a product that may be last to become stable...call me when you want to get started and we'll put together a winning plan regardless!

If you're considering selling a Claridge at Pelican Bay condo:
  You and your smart agent have a lot of great talking points to discuss with potential Claridge at Pelican Bay buyers.  Pricing and condition still is important when considering your selling strategy so make sure the unit looks its prettiest and is price accordingly.  If many of your neighbors decide not to do the same thing this season, you could fair pretty well.  It won't take much to stand out in the current market so make sure you call me when you want to get going and we'll prepare a fabulous marketing and selling strategy that is sure to bring success!
