This study has been created for Long
Beach Island homeowners and buyers
as a guide to evaluate the current market values of single-family Oceanfront
properties on Long Beach Island. I hope
this information is of value to you! Willy Kahl
Values of Single Family Oceanfront Properties
The average oceanfront price has increased to $2,299,900 this first half of 2013. There have been no oceanfront sales on the Southern end of the Island (Brighton Beach to Holgate), so I duplicated the southern end value from
last year. And surprisingly enough, the majority of oceanfront properties that sold might be considered tear downs.
Many sales have occurred on the North end, which usually brings values up.
The average price of an oceanfront sale in 2012 was $1,851,048 and the average oceanfront property sold had
69 linear feet on the oceanfront. This average was extremely low. I have concluded that of the 27 properties sold in
2012, 23 were 19 years of age or older. With so many older properties that sold, some of which were purchased as tear
downs, it is not fair to include the average price in analysis when in previous years the properties sold were much newer
construction.
Oceanfront data varies so much that I have computed a more leveraged curve by calculating the price per foot
of ocean frontage for single family oceanfront properties. To see how much an oceanfront property is valued the following numbers should be multiplied by the oceanfront footage. My data shows that values of oceanfront properties are
higher now than back in 2004 based on average sales per linear foot. The average sale prices per linear foot each year
are as follows: $7,662 in 1992, $29,069 in 2004, $33,466 in 2005, $34,709 in 2006, $29,618 in 2007, $33,971for 2008,
$31,966 for 2009, $30,102 for 2010 and $32,061 for 2011. With the numerous teardowns which have sold this past
year, 2012 held a value of only $26,827. This year so far, we have increased back up to $29,112. Of course this average varies from town-to-town, condition of home, and depth of lot.
To calculate the current value of an average oceanfront property multiply the amount of oceanfront feet by
$24,465 (if older home) to $32,061(if newer home in great condition). From 1992 to present the average linear foot calculates to 72.43 feet of ocean frontage per sale.
2010, 2011 and 2012 have shown increasing sales activity and a higher supply/demand ratio than in 2009.
Sandy is a temporary setback, and it still appears the value of oceanfront properties have leveled off and may even be
slightly appreciating in value. Currently sales are extremely slow, mostly due to the aftermath of Sandy.
The yearly sale prices vary more than anticipated because the type of oceanfront properties that have sold. In
2006, many oceanfront homes that sold were new construction, bringing higher than expected values. In 2007, the majority of oceanfront properties that sold were teardowns, creating a decline in values. In 2008, the sale of oceanfront
property in North Beach, Loveladies, and on oversized lots in Barnegat Light increased the average values for two reasons. The majority of homes were newly constructed and north end of the Island locations also hold the highest land
values on LBI. These sales created a higher than average sale price for oceanfront properties than expected in 2008. In
2009, there were not any north end properties that sold. In 2010, the number of north end properties that sold were below average, bringing average prices down. In 2011, new construction in North Beach included an entire tract which
brought our average value up a bit. In 2012, many tear downs sold, two new-construction and one 5 years of age, bringing values down from 2011. This year we are back up a bit, which is great considering mostly teardowns have sold.

Oceanfront Sales Volume Drops for the First Time Since 2009
So far, there have only been 5 Oceanfront single family home sales for the first six months of 2013.
This matches record lows of 2nd half of 2009 and also the second half of 1994. In addition, the number of
oceanfront properties (supply) for sale has increased from 38 the last half of 2012 to 44 oceanfront properties currently listed for sale.
The good news is there are currently 4 oceanfront properties under contract and it appears our 2nd
half will continue to have many more sales than our first half of 2013!
I calculate our supply to demand curve by dividing the number of oceanfront properties sold in the
latest half year period by the amount of oceanfront properties currently for sale. These are two key factors
to prices stabilizing with values on the rise in the near future. This first half of 2013 our supply vs. demand
ratio is .11 which is much less than last year. We are in much better condition than back in '94, when the
ratio dropped to .06, I feel this ratio will gain quickly as time goes on and sales volume becomes back to
normal.
Currently, there are 44 oceanfront properties available for sale, more than the 38 available last year,
but better than the 55 available at this time 2011. There were 59 homes listed for sale during the first half
of 2010. Our record low of 15 oceanfront homes on the market was in 2002. Our high was 101 oceanfront
homes available in 1993. There are approximately 1100 oceanfront homes on LBI.

Flood Insurance Premium Unknowns
Now that summer has arrived, we can see that sales have tremendously declined since this same time period
last year. The buyers looking for Island property are hesitant to proceed with a purchase and are looking for "good
deals". Realistically, the number of buyers that are seriously looking to purchase has decreased by approximately
50%.
Congress and President Obama signed the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012, and as a result flood insurance rate subsidies will be phased out over the next five years. Many buyers are waiting for finalized
flood maps to become available as well as additional information regarding future flood insurance rates. Following
are the paragraphs I found most interesting on the website: http://www.fema.gov/flood-insurance-reform-act-2012#1
The Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012 (BW-12) is a law that extends the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP) for five years, while requiring significant program reform. The law requires changes to all
major components of the program, including flood insurance, flood hazard mapping, grants, and the management of
floodplains. Many of the changes are designed to make the NFIP more financially stable, and ensure that flood insurance rates more accurately reflect the real risk of flooding.
About 20 percent of all NFIP policies pay subsidized rates. Only a portion of those policies that are currently
paying subsidized premiums will see larger premium increases of 25% annually starting this year, until their premiums
are full-risk premiums. Five percent of policyholders – those with subsidized policies for non-primary residences, businesses, and severe repetitive loss properties - will see the 25% annual increases immediately. Subsidies will no longer
be offered for policies covering newly purchased properties, lapsed policies, or new policies covering properties for
the first time.
Other actions will trigger immediate rate subsidy elimination. Subsidized premiums for primary residences in
Special Flood Hazard Area’s will be able to keep their subsidized rates unless the property is sold, or the policy lapses,
or property suffers severe damage often, or a new policy is purchased.
The Act phases-out grandfathered rates and moves to current risk-based rates for most properties when the
community adopts a new FIRM.
Extremely low flood rates will continue to exist for properties elevated 4' above the Base Flood Elevation and
fair flood rates will exist for those at the BFE. For more information pertaining to the Biggert-Waters Reform Act
please visit:
http://www.fema.gov/flood-insurance-reform-act-2012#1
Release of the New Advisory Base Flood Elevations
FEMA has released their 2nd revised flood maps, where the final mapping is planned for the latter
half of 2014. The maps have been expedited in order to help towns and homeowners utilize the new guidelines instead of rebuilding using the guidelines of the old flood maps. The new maps, referred to as the BFE
(Base Flood Elevation) maps are available online. The website provides information to find the actual BFE,
in addition to a wealth of other information.
These maps are not finalized and the 1994 maps are still in use. The new maps include x-zones and
shaded x-zones to meet a standard of old A-zone. Currently, FEMA feels there is no flooding hazard here.
Usually these are oceanblock properties in high areas.
If you bought your property before July 15, 2012, your flood insurance will not rise more than 25%
per year. Primary homes will be 5% increases rather than 25%. Older homes with basements or with low
elevation (4 feet below the base flood) will have extremely high premiums.
