Ship Bottom Real Estate and Long Beach Island New Jersey Real Estate Update in the Fourth Quarter of 2013
Ship Bottom Real Estate Sales Update in the Fourth Quarter of 2013Ship Bottom NJ Real Estate
The Ship Bottom Real Estate Sales Update in the Fourth Quarter of 2013 showed some interesting activity. About the same number of homes sold in the third and fourth quarter and the average sales price remained stable. Home values were greatly influenced by storm damage home sales which drive the average price of a single family home lower (since these properties are sold as vacant land rather than a usable home). It goes without saying that 2013 presented some difficult challenges for the Long Beach Island area and the LBI real estate market. Hurricane Sandy’s impact will be felt for a long time, but the speedy recovery of LBI has helped to restore confidence in the local market.

Ship Bottom and the LBI NJ Real Estate Market
Overall, 2013 ended up being a good year in the LBI real estate market. While the average price of a single family home is down Island wide, this is due to storm damaged homes driving down those averages. When non-damaged home are averaged (which is a better comparison as storm damaged homes have little to no value associated with the structure), the average price is actually a little higher than 2012!
