Many don’t know that Brigadoon is what Westfield-insiders refer to their town as when among locals. Really! Only outsiders call it Westfield and you’d stick out like a sore thumb if you called it that to someone familiar with the area. So don’t look like a dweeb, the next time you talk to a Brigadoon Realtor make it known that you are an INSIDER! For extra points, wink while you say it.

On to the comp killer (which must be a mistake, because Brigadoon prices never fall).

20 Woodbrook Circle, Westfield NJ
Purchased: January 1st, 2007
Purchase Price: $1,450,000

Bedrooms: 5
Baths: 4
Square Feet: 3900
Lot Size: 110×120
Taxes: $23,168

Listed for sale on January 11th, 2009
List Price: $1,325,000 (Ouch!)

Reduced to $1,275,090 on January 23rd.
Reduced to $1,199,000 on February 9th.
Reduced to $1,125,000 on February 27th.
Reduced to $1,075,000 on April 2nd.

The reduction to $1.075m was the magic number, 20 Woodbrook went into attorney review on 4/17 and went under contract on 4/30.

The big question is, what will it sell for? We won’t know until closing.

If it sells at asking price, the seller would have lost $375,000. Closer to $425,000 when you include the transaction costs associated with the sale. At asking, this property is selling at a discount of approximately 25% off it’s 2007 sale price.

Unfortunately, I don’t think it sold at asking. Westfield properties have been selling at about 95% of their last list price (on average) this year. If this property follows that trend, the closing price might be somewhere near $1.02m, and a much steeper loss for the owner.

Here are a sampling of properties that have closed across Northern NJ over the past 20 days or so (excludes Morris, see the Morris Comp Killer by clicking the “Comp Killer” shortcut on the right). It might help to read about what a comp killer is. Realize that I’m not trying to say that these properties are “good deals”, many of them are not. But what they do show is that prices can, and will fall, no matter what price range, style, or geographic area that home is in.

Make no mistake, we are nowhere near a market bottom. Prices will continue to fall over the next year. This isn’t to say there aren’t some opportunities in this market, there are, but they are rare and difficult to find. The majority of homes on the market today continue to be wildly overpriced.

Take a deep breath, a sip of coffee, and repeat after me:

Home prices can fall.

Home prices can fall.

Home prices can fall farther than I believe possible.

Home prices can fall for longer I believe possible.

My/Your home is not different.

My/Your street is not different.

My/Your town is not different.

It is not different here.

Home prices are falling and will continue to fall.

Here are a selected group of properties that have closed in Morris over the past month or two. It might help to read about what a comp killer is. Realize that I’m not trying to say that these properties are “good deals”, many of them are not. But what they do show is that prices can, and will fall. This crosses geographic areas, price ranges, shapes and sizes.

Fairfax Terrace, Chatham Twp
Purchased: 7/27/2004
Purchase Price: $765,000
Sold: 1/13/2009
Sale Price: $731,000
4.4% under the 2004 purchase price. 4.4% isn’t a big drop, but keep in mind we’re talking about a mid-2004 purchase price here. Prices were high in 2004, but they went much higher in 2005 and 2006.

Sheepfield Farms Drive, Harding
Purchased: 12/15/2006
Purchase Price: $3,500,000
Sold: 2/4/2009
Sale Price: $3,250,000
7% under the 2006 purchase price. Not a huge drop but we are talking about serious money here. You are looking at a loss of more than $400,000 on this transaction.

Spice Bush Road, Kinnelon
Purchased: 3/1/2006
Purchase Price: $837,500
Sold: 2/6/2009
Sale Price: $667,000 (foreclosure)
Roughly 20% under the 2006 purchase price. This is pretty steep drop for a property in the Smoke Rise community. This foreclosure was taken by the lender in November of 2007.

Lorraine Road, Madison
Purchased: 9/2/2004
Purchase Price: $662,500
Sold: 1/5/2009
Sale Price: $575,000
This is another property where you’ll need to take into account the purchase date. We’re talking about 13% below a 2004 price here. This is a loss of approximately $155k over 4 and a half years of ownership. If you are buying, you’ve got to have a much longer time horizon than this.

Purchase Price: $1,015,000

Not a Friday afternoon without a comp killer and a bank failure.

Today’s comp killer comes to us from prestigious Upper Montclair, NJ.

This property was acquired by the prior owner during the very frothy Summer 2005 market, in fact, this property was purchased right around the time that the Northern New Jersey Real Estate Bubble Blog (whew!) was founded.

This 3 bedroom, 2 bath beauty was purchased in July of 2005 for what now seems like a completely outrageous sum, $709,000. In bubble market style, the “winning bidder” paid more than $50,000 over asking. Losing bidder would probably be a more accurate description. This kind of overbidding was the norm in 2005. I’ve told the story here before, so I won’t repeat, but I was a bidder on a $500k property that summer that ended up selling for $700k. You know, this very well have been me.

Anyhow, the property came back on the market less than a year later for $774,900. Huh? Yeah, it sat for 70 days before it was withdrawn. They cut the price to $699k, but it didn’t do any good. Flip gone flop? Please tell me the owners didn’t expect a $70,000 bonus for house sitting through the winter.

Seller tried the same game again in 2007, came on the market in March for $639,000. Surprising right? Priced at a loss in 2007 and it didn’t sell. 83 days later it was withdrawn.

Fast forward, 2008, came on the market AGAIN in April. List price was now $599,000, an aggressive price that would leave the seller taking a loss of approximately $130,000. It went under contract this past December, and the closing took place in late January.

The sale price?

$528,110

A loss of more than $200,000 once you factor in the commission! The sale price was 25% below the 2005 purchase price. I thought prices didn’t go down in Upper Montclair?

So much for Montclair real estate!

Today’s comp killer comes to us courtesy of Luxist

Turns out football superstar Terrell Owens is significantly underwater on his Moorestown, NJ estate.

His property, on Cove and Landing in Moorestown, was purchased in May of 2004 for an astounding $3.9 million dollars. The property is currently listed by Prudential Fox and Roach Realtors.

Spread out over 5.7 acres, the estate features 5 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, 3 car garage, adult game room, roman path, pool, jacuzzis, and on and on.

Luxist reports that this listing came on the market at $3.4 million, $500,000 under the 2004 purchase price. Current asking price on the property is $2.96 million, $940,000 below purchase, or approximately a 25% cut from the original purchase price. A steal for a home that was featured on MTV Cribs!

Turns out that Owens originally listed the property for sale for $4.399 million according to the Inquirer Early Word Blog in a report back from 2006. That would put this property at roughtly 38% under the original list price. Another article in the Inquirer puts the original list date sometime in October of 2005, a year and a half or so after purchase.

Update, 7:52am

Gets even better, found another Prudential Fox and Roach listing via Trulia that puts the current asking at $2.675 million. The property is now listed at $1.225 million below purchase, a 31% discount to Owens’ original purchase price and an amazing 44% below the original list price.
