Market Notables

The number of homes sold in the area was up from October. This is a trend of increasing sales at a time of year when we usually see decreases in sales.

 

Single family home sales through the 30th of November 2006 were down 21% from the same period last year. Single family home sales in the month of November were down only 7.6% from last November. (Recall that sales in October were off 38% from a year earlier, so this is an improvement.)

 

The number of single family homes on the market was down in November to 768 homes.  This is a decrease in the supply of homes of 8.5%. Again this is an improvement to the market condition.

 

The average selling price of a home in November was $347,267. Although this is a decrease from a year earlier it is the result of a decrease in size of the average size home sold. See the chart below.
