COMMENTARY:

We've gotten off to a decent start in 2014. The actual number of sales so far is higher than in 2013, which was a fantastic year in real estate. It's simply too early to tell if this year will be better, but the signs do show promise.

As predicted, the number of homes for sale has increased from last month as smart sellers are looking to get an early jump on the spring market. We saw 6 homes come on the market this past week and 29 since February 1st.   There are currently 71 active listings, up from 62 this time last month.

MOVING FORWARD:

We anticipate things slowing down right around spring break but will then pick up significantly as we head into April. There will be a ton of homes coming onto the market over the next 90 days, creating a lot of activity for buyers and sellers. The hottest market is in the $300,000-$400,000 price point, where nice homes can expect to sell very quickly, perhaps in a matter of days.

If you are thinking about selling your Solon home, you should seriously consider taking advantage of a strong market this spring. There are no guarantees next year will be any better, so waiting may not be worth the risk.
