Portsmouth NH Real Estate - October 2008 Market Update

By
Real Estate Agent with The Bean Group

Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist noted in October that, "A trend away from subprime mortgages to FHA loans, which often carry much lower interest rates, is a positive development for consumers and the house market going forward.  Still, it will take some time for the change to yield a measurably higher closed sales volume in the aftermath of the subprime collapse.  In the near term, we expect home sales to remain fairly stable."  As real estate markets are local, here's what happened in the Portsmouth market in October: 

 

19 homes sold in Portsmouth in October:

-   5 single family homes, and

- 12 condos, and

-   2 mobile homes. 

 Year-to-date, 236 homes have sold in Portsmouth, NH:

-107 single family homes

-120 condos, and

-    9 mobile homes

 In addition, 18 Portsmouth homes are pending with active contracts.
