The Wellington CO May 2012 Real Estate Market Report data is giving us mixed signals this month - sales are down, inventory is up strongly, and prices are down from the previous month - but this is a small market, with relatively few transactions, so month-to-month variations are may have little relevance to real trends. We will be watching this market closely over the next several months for better clues about what is happening. And in the meantime, with a good selection of well-priced homes and low interest rates, there continue to be great opportunities here for ready buyers.
