I’m pleased to report that our market is still very robust. Due to the lack of inventory, the number of homes for sale in the county is down 8%, and the number of homes that have already sold is down 12% over the previous month. However, the number of homes that are in a pending status is up 10.7%. Watch for those homes to close soon and be included in next month’s “sold” category. The average price per square foot of a home is down 5%, which means that there may be a slight correction coming, but homes are selling quicker and the average days on market is down 11.3%. Although it’s up slightly from the previous month, there’s still only a 3.2 month’s supply of inventory.“The numbers show that we’re still firmly in a seller’s market. ” In reviewing these numbers, it seems like the housing crisis is finally in the rearview mirror. There may be a correction here and there, but overall this has been and will continue to be a great year for real estate. However, there is one thing that may cause the industry to tap the breaks, and that’s a lack of inventory. If you’re debating whether or not to put your home on the market this year, now is the time to take advantage of the buyer demand.
