Psst. . mortgages rates are at record lows


With mortgage rates at or near record lows and prices rolled back, we are puzzled finding buyers that are still waiting for the market to drop some more.. .well. you are in for a lonnnnng wait!

An inventory shortage has whipped up a feeding frenzy in our local market. .specially in the lower range properties. With bidding wars and price increases coming from apartment renters that are finding that mortgage payments are LOWER than their monthly rental bill. .is a no brainier!

As a broker, I ask myself if  this pressure is justified? 
Would most buyers be better served by waiting?

Absolutely not!

Check the chart below.. 

rEAL eSTATE

Year over Year (YoY) statistics are on the positive side in all aspects of the market today, 

The only thing were there is a negative gain. . is  the DAYS ON THE MARKET!
Things are selling quicker now. .I can assure you.
 

Everything points that the market is in the upswing!

HOMES
The most dramatic data for September 2012 is the comparison of month to month from last year.
Look at the Sold Dollar Volume over 16% higher than last year.
 

Even the average Sold Price shows almost a 10% jump over last year. .That is good news if you are a seller. . .

HOUSES

The inventory declined to record lows in the last 12 months,if you are waiting to buy. . pay attention to this critical number 

The number of LISTINGS!

The market in 2008 when everything started to unravel.. we had 12,908 ACTIVE LISTINGS THEN
Now?
From 2008 to 2012, we have only 4500 ACTIVE LISTINGS!
 
Homes are selling because ..the interest rates are low and inventory is at record lows!
