This time, it’s not surprising that monthly figures couldn’t keep pace as October 2018 saw record sales volume, not just for the month of October but for any monthly period in the history of Nantucket sales. October 2019 transaction and sales volume was far from lackluster, however. The 53 transactions totaling $138 million surpassed every monthly period so far this year, as well as October sales volume from 2016 & 2017. Sales included six speculative home sales, the most thus far, an overall decline in average marketing times and a surge in contract activity. While inventory levels may be higher, the market seems to be faring quite well.

Anecdotally, October felt very busy so it’s nice to see this activity reflected in the MLS records, as that isn’t always the case when contracts aren’t recorded right away. • As compared to October 2018 contract activity, October 2019 contracts were higher for homes priced less than $1 million, significantly higher for homes priced between $1 million and $2 million, and slightly higher between $7 million and $9 million. The ultra-high- end didn’t see any activity (according to the MLS) wherein last year saw two recorded contracts. The overall volume is good news for the remainder of the year and early into 2020, as preliminary November results suggest data will once again trail 2018 volume. • After narrowing the gap from prior year figures at the end of August, total dollar volume for single-family home sales fell behind more than 10 percent once again, largely due to October sales that just couldn’t catch the record figures set in October 2018. Last year’s dollar volume was nearly double that of a typical October, so the 237 single-family home transactions totaling $615 million in October 2019 led to a respective decline of 11 percent and 16 percent lower than the same period in 2018. As compared to the five-year average for the January-October period, transactions measured down 11 percent while dollar volume was off five percent. • As touched on in last month’s report, the price point segment to see the biggest year-over-year change was the $3 million to $4 million home segment which rose three percentage points as a total of all transaction activity from both 2018 and the five-year average. The $2 million to $3 million segment declined two percentage points from 2018, as did the $5 million to $6 million price point and the ultra-high-end of the market, or sales above $10 million. • The average home sale price ($2.6M) and the median home sale price ($1.9M) illustrate the dichotomy between the distribution of low-end and high-end sales activity, while the decline in the average months on market showcases continued strength in the current market. Pricing statistics were steady while single-family inventory rose nine percent from one year ago. 2019 2018 % Change 5-Year Avg(2015–19) Total Transactions 237 266 –11% f 258 Total Sales Dollar Volume $614,681,716 $729,160,504 –16% f $661,405,999 Avg.

What this analysis doesn’t provide for is that there is often a big difference in the marketing time of newer, renovated homes versus older homes. • While these projections provide an indication of current market dynamics in specific price points, they are based on historic data so could naturally change pending future sales trends. PROJECTED MONTHS ON MARKET FOR SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES MARKETING TIMES RANGE FROM THREE MONTHS TO 48 MONTHS MARKET INDICATORS • One of the big differentiators between 2018 and 2019 is the reduced volume in high-end and ultra-high-end transactions. One year ago, more than half of the October dollar volume stemmed from 11 transactions in the high-end of the market ($5M -$9.99M) and three transactions in the ultra-high-end ($10M+). Full year results included 32 transactions between $5 million and $10 million and 11 transactions above $10 million, the most numerous transactions in the high end of the market, even surpassing 2005 & 2006 levels. • This year’s high end activity has been more subdued. Through October 31, 2019, 24 transactions took place between $5 million and $10 million and just two transactions have closed above $10 million. There are four properties under contract that were last listed for more than $10 million but this year’s market is still well behind the activity witnessed one year ago. And it’s not due to a lack of inventory as the number of properties for sale were largely comparable throughout the selling season of both years. As of October 31, 2019, there were 30 properties listed for more than $10 million, compared to 24 in 2018. It’s a similar pattern for properties listed between $5 million and $10 million.
