Real estate: nearly 100 homes for sale

Higher-priced residences are responsible for a rising inventory of homes for sale on island.  With 98 residential properties now on the Multiple Listing Service, the median price of a home has moved up $200,000 to $1.9 million.  The average price continues at about $2.17 million.

In previous seasons, real estate sales people lamented a lack of selection when inventory totaled less than 45 houses.  Now, with nearly 100 properties, one sales person said buyers have more from which to choose and that is leading to lots of viewings and some contracts.

MorgansIn commercial real estate, another popular Cruz Bay restaurant has been listed.  Morgan’s Mango is being offered for $960,000.  This is not the first time Morgan’s has been for sale; previously the asking price – last season, and I believe the season before,  – was $1.2 million.

  1. We are scheluled for our or visit to St John in June. This time we are bringing the entire clan. Should we buy snorkle gear prior to, or wait till we arrive?

  2. Plenty of snorkel gear rentals available, We used Hurricane Alley at Mongoose, next to the Canvas Factory, in March. Something like $5 a day.
