Portsmouth NH Real Estate - April 2008 Market Update

By
Real Estate Agent with The Bean Group

The latest forecast by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) claims that existing-home sales are projected to trend up in 2008.  I definitely see that happening here in the Seacoast.  In fact, Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist for NAR was quoted recently saying, "The improvement in the Northeast reaffirms a trend apparent for some months now that shows signs of recovery, noteworthy because that was the first region to slump." Yes, he said did say improvement in the Northeast!

Let's check out what's been going on in Portsmouth, NH.

36 homes sold in Portsmouth in April

-14 single family homes, and

-22 condos. 

Year-to-date, 87 homes have sold in Portsmouth, NH:

-33 single family homes

-51 condos, and

-3 mobile homes

In addition, 7 Portsmouth homes went pending with active contracts in April and there are currently 186 active listings in Portsmouth.

If you are thinking of buying, now is definitely the time.  If you are waiting for home prices to go lower I believe you may have missed the bottom so now is the time to get off the fence.
