Seller's Market Returns to Westfield NJ Real Estate Scene

Buyers are encountering short market times, multiple offers and no overabundance of selection of homes in Westfield NJ's brisk house market.

Buyers of new construction, resale homes, affordable homes, relocation homes, starter homes, luxury homes are all a little surprised to discover they are not alone when they settle on the most attractively presented, most sensibly priced homes in this desirable town.

Since the first of the year, 59 contracts have been signed on an inventory of just 120 homes.  A sales pace of 30 per month means we have a 4 month supply (or absorption rate, in industry jargon.

Housing economy experts agree that 6 month supply is a balanced market, so this is a hot seller's market by that metric.

If you are holding out for the spring market . . .Real Estate Springtime is here.  For a wealth of information on buying Westfield NJ real estate wisely in any market, or for preparing your Westfield NJ home and pricing for a successful sale, visit my website.
