Before I begin to explain the findings in the above chart, allow me to take a moment to define some of the terms.
Active: Listings that are currently listed as being "Active" in the MLS.
Pending: Listings that are currently under contract. This includes both Short Sales and Traditional (non- distressed) listings.
Closed: These are homes that closed escrow during the month of January /2011.
Traditional: These are listings that are "non-distressed" (i.e., not short sales or bank-owned).
Short Sales: These are listings that are marketed/sold for less than what is owed on their respective mortgages.
Bank-Owned: As the title implies, these are listings that are marketed/sold by the bank/lender that owns them.
Other/Misc.: These listings are owner/agent, probate, court approval required, etc.
There are currently 202 Active Listings on the market in Desert Ridge:
81 Are Traditional Listings
83 Are Short Sales
34 Are Bank-Owned
4 Are Misc.
There are currently 122 Pending Listings in Desert Ridge Phoenix:
20 Are Traditional Listings
69 Are Short Sales
26 Are Bank-Owned

During the month of January / 2011, there were 44 closed listings in Desert Ridge Phoenix:
12 Were Traditional Listings
12 Were Short Sales

3 Were Misc.
Finally, in the Desert Ridge Homes Monthly Real Estate Report, we will compare month/month cost per square foot for those homes that closed escrow in January / 2011:
The Average Price/Square Foot for homes sold in December / 2010 in Desert Ridge Phoenix was $111.67 per square foot.
The Average Price/Square Foot for homes sold in January / 2011 was $106.79 per square foot.
This represents a 4.4% decrease in prices within the community from December / 2010 to January / 2011. The fact that 17 of the 44 homes that closed escrow were bank-owned homes probably had a great deal to do with this decrease in price.
