It’s a
Bigmarket Bear Residential sales by area
By Mike Sannes Mike Sannes Real Estate Team
Hello from beautiful Big Bear Lake and thanks for checking in with us regarding the Big Bear real estate market. Summer is here and, as the first half of 2016 has literally flown by, let’s get caught up on the happenings in Big Bear’s unique resort market. Big Bear’s real estate market is primarily driven by vacation home and second-home buyers, but as with all markets, supply and demand certainly still influence price.
On the Supply Side
There are currently 563 active residential listings on the Big Bear MLS. This is a substantial increase in inventory from the 391 listings on the market in mid-March. This seasonal increase in supply, heading into the summer-selling-season, is to be expected. Inventory is roughly on par with June of 2015 when there were 541 active listings. Based on the number of homes in escrow (179) and using the typical 45-day closing period, the current

ket. I would describe the current market in Big Bear as stable and neutral, not strongly favoring either buyers or sellers. Based on the increasing demand agencies are seeing now that the days are growing longer and warmer, there are often more buyers for every well-priced home (as opposed to having more well-priced homes than buyers). Multiple-offer scenarios are beginning to occur more regularly in certain areas of Big Bear and in certain price ranges as well.
Looking at demand
When looking at January through May of 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015, demand overall has been on pace with last year. There is a 1 percent increase in residential closings (416 in January-May of 2016 versus 412 in January-May of 2015). March was the only outlier so far this year, showing a 27 percent increase in homes sold (113 in March 2016 versus 89 in March 2015). While the overall market is relatively flat, there are some interesting dynamics worth highlighting. Moonridge has seen significantly less sales (down 16 percent), while sales in Big Bear City as opposed to Big Bear Lake saw an impressive increase of 11.8 percent. Big Bear Lake, Fox Farm, Sugarloaf and the East Valley are all relatively stable when compared to 2015. The price range under $250,000 saw an 8.7 percent decrease in sales, which was surprising to me, although quality inventory is becoming more scarce. Sales in this price range, however, still make up 51 percent of all sales (versus 56 percent in 2015). The price range between $250,000 and $500,000 has shown strong growth with an overall increase of 20.3 percent compared to 2015. Sales in this price range constitute 40 percent of all sales versus 34 percent in 2015. As Big Bear continues the slow and steady climb back from the bottom of the real estate market (third quarter of 2011), price appreciation, albeit gradual, has become the norm. The average price of all homes sold in the Big Bear Valley from January-May of 2016 versus the same period of 2015, has increased by 3.7 percent overall. • Moonridge was up 24 percent, but as there are not all that many closings specifically in Moonridge, having one or two high-end homes close distorts this number a great deal. • Big Bear City was up 10 percent and made up the 12 - Real Estate with Altitude • Big Bear Grizzly • July 2016

lion’s share of the overall rise in average home price. I expect this trend to continue and for prices to remain stable and continue to gradually rise. The wild cards in this scenario are, of course, the outcome of the upcoming election and what impact this will have on interest rate policy and the economy overall. Interest rates, however, remain at historically low levels and should hold throughout this year at least, with this being an election year. But what happens in 2017 and what effect this has on the economy is not yet ours to see. So, finding a nice deal on a great property and locking in an amazing rate this year looks to be a prudent move. A few other market metrics to be aware of: • The average days-on-market has declined 14 percent from 106 in May of 2015 to 91 in May 2016. • The average sale-to-list-price ratio remains steady at 97 percent. It remains best to price competitively out of the gate and hold relatively firm, rather than to list too high and then reduce, as well-priced listings are selling very close to their asking price. We hope you have found this information useful. We look forward to keeping you up-to-date on the real estate market in Big Bear.

new level. Basic keypad alarms have been replaced by a host of features, such as silent alarms that allow authorities to catch a burglar in action; cameras that allow you to monitor the premises from inside the home or while you’re away using a connected device; motion detectors that simultaneously trigger exterior and interior lights while activating security cameras and more. There is no one solution for every home, but a home security expert can talk through your concerns and guide you to the system that best fits your needs. Standby generators When seasonal weather or other circumstances cause power outages, the impact on a home and family can range from inconvenient to unsafe. A standby generator system keeps a household humming even when the power is out — automatically. An important feature to look for is power management technology, which manages the power balancing act that is your home’s appliances. For example, Briggs & Stratton Fortress standby generators are equipped with Symphony II Power Management, which lets homeowners prioritize what in their home they need powered by proactively monitoring and managing the home’s backup power needs, allowing for whole-house power with a more affordable generator. This power management system
also uses remote power-switching modules that are installed directly to a home’s existing wiring, to help reduce installation costs. For more information about standby generator systems and their features, visit powernow.com. Wireless automation You may think of it as just a phone, but the tiny computer you carry every day packs the power to control an ever-growing segment of your home. Using an app on your smartphone, tablet or computer, you can control everything from your locks and lights to the temperature setting on your thermostat. What’s more, you can create settings that integrate multiple functions to set the perfect ambiance for whatever you have in mind. Planning on a movie night? Cue the movie setting, with dimmed lights, blinds lowered and the TV powered on. Hosting a party? Count on your custom entertaining setup, with lighting in all your guest-friendly rooms, lively music playing on your whole-home sound system and a lower temperature to keep things cool as the party heats up. The options are nearly endless when it comes to elevating your home’s features. By combining practical functions and indulgent improvements, you can take your homeowner satisfaction to new heights.
