Here is the Palm Springs Market Update for the month of August 2007:
August 2007 was the second slowest month for home sales in Palm Springs. There were 46 homes and 41 condos that sold during the month.
The August 2007 total of 87 homes sold is 36 less homes than the 2006 August total of 123 homes.
But all is not doom & gloom in the Desert. The YTD median home price in Palm Springs is $481,814, which is nearly 2% above the 2006 median home price of $480,246.The homes in the 1 million+ dollar range has been doing very well in Palm Springs, which has kept the median home price up, even though there have been less sales.

This year besides being hot, it was more humid by Palm Springs standards. It was a little uncomfortable. Thanks for the tips on the graphs. Have a good evening.
Our August sales activity was dismal, but we didn't have very many new listings either. I can already feel a shift with new listings coming on this week- and some good ones. I hope you will feel that in Palm Springs as well!
This was the slowest August I have seen in 2 years. I think with the media's portrayal of the housing market & the coverage of "Mortgage Meltdown 2007" had a lot to do with the low numbers. Traditionally after Labor Day, the housing market in Palm Springs always sees an upswing. I am very optimistic.
Great graph's on your blog! I reported on my blog that actual closed sales here in Provincetown are up 16% YTD compared to LYTD. Buyers are now realizing that NOW is the time to buy before the market shifts toward a sellers market, while inventory is plentiful, and mortgage rates remain in the 6% range for a conventional 30-year fixed.
The market information is easier to digest using the graphs. It was a little slow in August, but things are already picking up. It is a great time for buyers, but we as Realtors must educate our clients of this fact. Thanks for your comments....Have a great day!!!
Thank you for your comments. We have to stay positive in this market, so I am going to expound on ANY positive market information and relay that information to my clients.
