THANK YOU

– LUXURY REPORT EXPLAINED – The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing has analyzed a number of metrics — including sales prices, sales volumes, number of sales, sales-price-to-list-price ratios, days on market and price-per-square-foot – to provide you a comprehensive North American Luxury Market report.

Additionally, we have further examined all of the individual luxury markets to provide both an overview and an in-depth analysis - including, where data is sufficient, a breakdown by luxury single-family homes and luxury attached homes.

It is our intention to include additional luxury markets on a continual basis. If your market is not featured, please contact us so we can implement the necessary qualification process. More indepth reports on the luxury communities in your market are available as well.

Looking through this report, you will notice three distinct market statuses, Buyer's Market, Seller's Market, and Balanced Market. A Buyer's Market indicates that buyers have greater control over the price point. This market type is demonstrated by a substantial number of homes on the market and few sales, suggesting demand for residential properties is slow for that market and/or price point.

By contrast, a Seller's Market gives sellers greater control over the price point. Typically this means there are few homes on the market and a generous demand, causing competition between buyers who ultimately drive sales prices higher.

A Balanced Market indicates that neither the buyers nor the sellers control the price point at which that property will sell and that there is neither a glut nor a lack of inventory. Typically, this type of market sees a stabilization of both the list and sold price, the length of time the property is on the market as well as the expectancy amongst homeowners in their respective communities – so long as their home is priced in accordance with the current market value.

REPORT GLOSSARY REMAINING INVENTORY: The total number of homes available at the close of a month.

DAYS ON MARKET: Measures the number of days a home is available on the market before a purchase offer is accepted.

LUXURY BENCHMARK PRICE: The price point that marks the transition from traditional homes to luxury homes.

NEW LISTINGS: The number of homes that entered the market during the current month.

PRICE PER SQUARE FOOT: Measures the dollar amount of the home's price for an individual square foot.

SALES RATIO: Sales Ratio defines market speed and determines whether the market currently favors buyers or sellers. Buyer's Market = up to 14%; Balanced Market = 15 to 20%; Seller's Market = 21% plus. If >100%, sales from previous month exceeds current inventory.

SP/LP RATIO: The Sales Price/List Price Ratio compares the value of the sold price to the value of the list price.

Within the individual markets, you will find established luxury benchmark prices and detailed survey of luxury active and sold properties designed to showcase current market status and recent trends. The national report illustrates a compilation of the top North American markets to review overall standards and trends.

Luxury benchmark prices are determined by The Institute annually. This active and sold data has been compiled by various sources, including local MLS boards, local tax records and Realtor.com. Data is deemed reliable to the best of our knowledge, but is not guaranteed.

NORTH AMERICAN D EC E M B E R LUXURY REVIEW 2 0 1 8 Welcome to 2019 and our review of the previous year, 2018, in conjunction with the current luxury market in North America (US and Canada).

In a snapshot, 2018 - despite pessimist forecasts in the 4th quarter - gave us a year of fairly strong consistency with no dramatic up or down swings in sales, inventory and pricing. Some markets certainly fared better than others, but in general terms 2018 should be remember as the start of “change” in terms of purchasing power, preferences, and demand.

At The Institute’s premier networking event in November, Lesley Appleton-Young, Chief Economist for the California Association of REALTORS®, gave the attendees a larger picture analysis by comparing 2018 against the previous 10 years. Her masterful in-depth review of the current real estate market highlighted all the variables from inventory and pricing to equity markets, job growth, home equity, inflation, and personal wealth, all of which impact the demand and supply, coining our current situation as moving from “Great to Good.”

President of The Institute, Diane Hartley, emulated these thoughts, adding “2019 will actually be a year of opportunity for both sellers and buyers provided that they remain agile, innovative and adaptable to their local market influences.”

A review of December 2018’s Market Statistics for North America.

In review of December’s luxury property sales there was seemingly a significant decline of 7.5%; not unexpected as this is typically one of the slowest months of the year. More importantly, when compared to December 2017 there is very little difference in the number of sales, consolidating predictions that the market is changing its demand - perhaps there is a slight softening, but certainly no dramatic decline.

Inventory decreased month over month, again this is not unexpected for the time of year, but is significantly higher against December 2017. Predictions are that this now offers opportunity for buyers who previously found it difficult to compete, which could result in increased sales in 2019.

In looking at the trends for luxury sales prices, medians have held a very steady line over the past 13

months, hovering around $1.4 Million for single-family homes and $900,000 for attached homes. This overall trend offers solid evidence towards Appleton-Young’s viewpoint. As is true that the presence and absence of landmark sales can sway individual markets in significant directions, the North American luxury market has provided a level of consistency and reliability in 2018.

Changes in Luxury Real Estate Demographics 2018 can also be remembered as solidifying the change of ownership for luxury real estate – in a report distributed in September 2018 by Wealth-X, it was noted that 67.4% of the ultra-wealthy were “selfmade,” 21.7% compromised the blend of “inherited and self-made,” with only 10.9% purely ‘inherited wealth.”

WEALTH SOURCE Understanding how this wealth has been generated and by whom will be key to understanding both today’s requirements and future expectations of the type of real estate that will be in demand.

For the next generation, wealth is not seen in terms of materialistic items but rather “time, rarity and experiences.” Today’s fast pace of life is being driven technology and global expansion, fueled by considerable financial investment, making today’s wealthy realize that they have to find balance.

Source: Wealth-X, 2017

In a recent article by Jim Walberg, one of the Top 1% of REALTORS nationwide, he expounded on the theory of Psychology Professor Thomas Gilovich of Cornell University “happiness is derived from experiences, not things.” Jim’s own experiences showed that this change in how people define “luxury” was becoming more evident in the choices they made in home purchases.

“Luxury, from their perspective, is the enjoyment of the best of life, and it takes a conscious effort to seek it out. The words used over and over again were, ‘It must be worth it.’”

Indeed, in a Wealth-X study of the Top 20 interests of the ultra-wealthy above and below 40 found that where Business was ranked no 1 for 40+ for under 40s it was sports! Here is a snap shot of the Top 5 of that Top 20 list.

As reviewed in November’s Luxury Market Report, real estate requirements of the affluent have also changed significantly over the past few years with properties being purchased to suit both home, business and lifestyle requirements, often interlinked with each other. Global entrepreneurs require homes in numerous locations for business purposes – so key destinations throughout the world have become their focus, creating striking increases in demand for downtown city locations.

In the midst of a world were speed and instant gratification are at a touch of a button – there has been a growing recognition for a need to find time for peace and relaxation. Consumer demand for wellness lifestyle real estate and communities is on the rise globally.

Changes in Luxury Real Estate by Design 2018 marked the downward trend for “mega mansions” – not to say that homes of magnificent size and value are not being built and purchased – but volume of demand has significantly dropped.

Developers have been quick to respond to this change in demand and new projects offering both convenience of location blended with lifestyle and amenities have been masterly planned – both in cities and destination environments.

These properties have to be more than stopping off locations for a week here and there, they have to offer the full home experience allowing executives to live, play, and work – and bring their family and pets with them too!

Design changed significantly this year – big, bold and architecturally stunning combined with technology, well-being, sense of space, and the creation of an experience!

As a perfect blend of current trends towards creating experiences and the desire for relaxation, 2018 was also the year of “Hygge” /'h(y)o͞ oɡə,'ho͝ oɡə/ - a Danish word that has no English equivalent but best described as “a way of thinking, decorating, and living that invokes a sense of relaxed happiness and brings about a feeling of home.”

Perhaps these changes have emerged in the wake of so many disasters over the last two years, the establishment of new standards and expectations of quality both in materials and architecture have been a strong concern for many a new purchaser.

Predictions for 2019 from all the traditional sources eg. Brokerages, Real Estate Associations, Real Estate Media, as usual run the gambit good to impending disaster. In reality, with the growing number of ultrawealthy and increasing population looking for homeownership in the lower priced markets, it is fairly safe to predict that the overall supply of inventory in North America for 2019 will not outweigh demand.

However, this will not cause the dramatic increase of prices experienced over the last 10 years and today’s luxury market demand is only predicted to remain strong in the luxury condo, ‘experience’ destinations, and globally accessible communities throughout North America.
