Real Estate Report & Neighborhood Spotlight: Quarter 1-2024

 

 

SOUTHAMPTON HOME SALES OVERVIEW

Southampton neighborhood continued to suffer from lack of inventory in Quarter 1-2024, resulting in much higher home prices. Average and median home sale prices increased 31% and 38%, respectively. The average price of a home was $146,000 higher year-over-year; the median price was $180,000 higher. The average price per square foot increased 30% to $232. Just three homes sold in Q1-2024. For a neighborhood with some 418 homes, three home sales in an entire quarter is just a drop in the bucket. The list to sale price ratio increased to 102.63% from one year ago, providing little opportunity for Southampton home buyers to negotiate on price. Although days on market increased 50%, they were still very low by any measure at six days. With just 0.32 months of inventory, Southampton remained in home seller “territory” in Q1-2024.
