How is our market doing compared to 2009 and 2010?
August 31, 2011 - 7,271 active residential listings:
down 17% from 8,781 same date 2010
down 20% from 9,059 in 2009
MLS closed residential sides January 1 - August 31:
12,102 in 2011
up 2.6% from 2010 (when we had the first time homebuyers stimulus) at 11,792
up 20% over 2009 at 10,092
The bottom line is that we still have economic and industry challenges and a long, bumpy road to recovery to a healthy real estate market, but we are making progress. Our market is 20% better than it was 2 years ago in units, and 16.5% better in volume even with softening prices.
