Newport News Home Prices

We have seen 8 straight months where home prices have mostly stayed constant just over the last three months you can see the sold home prices in Newport News are coming in over and above asking price which means we are now in a sellers market. If your are considering buying a home a home yon can still find deals on a house in Newport News but having a good real estate agent who understands the market is a must. Don't wait on the sidelines for too long, many of the listings are selling in matter of days with in being listed if they are priced right. Right now we are having in inventory shortage what does that mean to you?

    Look at the graph below and you will see that people are paying more then the asking price which really means they are trying to out bid another buyer (Just over the last month alone look at the increase in sale price of $40,000). The buyers I work with go into the market knowing that when they find a home the love they have to be ready to make an offer right away before they lose out to another buyer or investor. To make sure you are not going to pay to much you want an agent who will do a market analysis of the home you are making an offer on.

I was suprised to see that homes are selling over the listing price by so much. I knew that it was happening but now that I do my monthly report I really have a better understanding of my local numbers.
