Chicago IL Market Statistics Update - June 30, 2008

By
Real Estate Agent with Dean's Team - Keller Williams Realty Partners Chicago IL

Good Morning, AR! 

Here's the latest Stat Summary on the Chicago Real Estate Market, based on data pulled yesterday evening, June 29, 2008 -

While Active Listings and Sales Pending remained fairly stable within the past week, we are encouraged by considerable improvements in Average Market Time, Transactions Closed, and Closed Volume - these figures based on properties that went under contract several weeks ago, and are just now closing.

The dip in Average Sales Price might indicate many successful sellers are beginning to realize pricing correctly is the best predictor of a timely sale. 

Absorption Rate, or average inventory turnover, fell 2.7% this past week - a positive move!  The theoretical level of home inventory in the City of Chicago areas we serve no stands at just nearly 28.4 months, on average.

Percentage of Sale Within Six Month (180 Days) showed improvement this week as well.

Communities and clients we serve reside, or plan to reside, in the Chicago Neighborhoods of The Chicago Loop, The Gold Coast, River North, Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Uptown, Edgewater, North Center, Lincoln Square, Albany Park, Ravenswood, Wicker Park, and Bucktown. 

Also, these Great Chicago Neighborhoods: Logan Square, Rogers Park , West Ridge, Portage Park, Jefferson Park, Norwood Park, Sauganash, Edgebrook, and Edison Park.   Plus All Chicago Suburbs
