YUKON REAL ESTATE MARKET REPORT OCTOBER 2016
YUKON OK 73099
AS OF NOVEMBER 6, 2016

INFO THAT HITS US WHERE WE LIVE ... We were certainly traveling on happy trails last week following two upward trending housing market reports. New Home Sales in September went up 3.1%, just shy of a 600,000 unit annual rate. Compared to a year ago, sales are up 29.8%. If that doesn't make you happy, consider this. After experiencing a summer lull in August, new home sales in September posted their fastest sales pace since 2008, excluding July's excellent numbers. The biggest obstacle to higher sales remains low inventories. As those slid in September, it shows builders are falling behind demand, so there's lots of room to increase construction activity. The other happy housing report? The Pending Home Sales index of contracts signed on existing homes was up 1.5% in September following its August dip. Combining readings from recent months indicates existing home sales in coming months should continue the gains made in September. The index is 2.4% ahead of September last year, its 25th month in a row of year-over-year increases. |
