Summary:

The winter months are typically slower, with only serious buyers and bargain hunters venturing out in the cold and snow. February home transfers are a result of contracts written in November and December, and Januray, not necessarily an indication of current market activity.

While bank owned and distressed properties make up about 30% of the market nationwide, there was only 1 bank owned home that sold in Solon last month. While the inventory of Solon bank owned homes has decreased over the last year, some people believe that there will be another wave of foreclosures in the near future as many adjustable rate loans are due to re-set. Until then, bargain hunters looking for huge deals may want to look elsewhere.

There are currently 35 homes under contract, which shows that there are homes selling and buyers out in the marketplace. This is even more impressive considering last month was one of the snowiest on record. Homes in the mid-level price points may be deemed the most desirable right now as buyers are still looking to take advantage of the home buyer tax credit, which will be expiring on April 30th.

There is really good news for the Solon luxury home market as 3 homes priced over $500,000 went under contract last month, including one priced over $1,000,000. Perhaps consumer confidence is growing and we will see more high priced homes sell this year.

We still anticipate a lot of buyer activity over the next 60 days, as the weather is beginning to improve and the inventory of new homes coming onto the market grows.
