National Numbers that Drive Real Estate
Numbers Released 7/16/09 Home Sales Sales of existing homes trended upward for the fourth straight month, benefiting from favorable affordability conditions. The $8,000 tax credit continued to draw in first-time buyers, who accounted for 29% of all transactions in May. Repeat buyers, who often sell their current house to first time buyers, are also coming back to the market in large numbers. Median Home Price Existing-home price was $173,000, up 3.8% from last month but still down 16.8% from the same time last year. Distressed sales, which accounted for a smaller 33% of sales in May, continued to weigh down the median price, as these properties are generally sold at a larger discount relative to traditional sales. However, the seasonal rise in number of repeat buyers who are generally spread across all price ranges helped to partially offset the downward pressures. Inventory—Month’s Supply Housing inventory at the end of May fell 3.5% to 3.8 million, representing a 9.6-month supply at the current pace of sale, down from a 10.1-month supply in April.
