Meriden single family home sales enjoyed its best month in 2 years in June, doubling sales from the previous month and posting a 60% increase over June of 2011, but about 8% below June of 2010 when 52 homes sold. Condo sales also saw a jump in sales, besting May by 60% and June 2011 by 33%, but falling short of June 2010 by 53%. Average sale prices for both single family homes and condos showed significant improvement, while inventory remained almost unchanged. Interest rates for conventional loans fell to an amazing 3.25%, while CHFA rates (for first time home buyers) also dropped significantly, settling in at 2.75%, the lowest rate we've ever seen for this rate. If there ever was a good time for new home buyers to find their dream home, it's now! The spike in sales moved Meriden from a normal buyer's market to a normal seller's market, dropping from 11.5 months of available home inventory to just under 6 months currently. Looking at all of the data and judging from our own activity this month, it looks like July should also beat 2011 results but may fall short of equaling June's impressive numbers.
