VILLA PARK REAL ESTATE MARKET HOLDS STEADY AND STRONG

The number of homes for sale in Villa Park, California remained virtually unchanged between December 2012 and January 2013, and showed little movement when compared to one year ago.

The Villa Park real estate market remains strong due to the low inventory of homes for sale, including a lack of distressed sales, and an increasing demand for properties in the upper, luxury end of the market.

PENDING HOME SALES DOWN IN JANUARY 2013

Pending home sales fell month over month in Villa Park, California, which is common and to be expected between December and January of each year. However, the January 2013 pending sales figures were also lower than the stats documented one year ago. Although this decrease is inconsistent with what we're experiencing in the surrounding North Orange County cities, I wouldn't sound the alarm just yet. While it's true that luxury home sales have been on the rise, not everyone can afford to purchase a $1,000,000.00+ property, so homes in this price range tend to take longer to sell than the entry level market of $500,000.00 and below.
