ADA COUNTY EXISTING/RESALE HOUSING INVENTORY INCHES UP IN JULY

  • July 2018 marked four consecutive months of gains in existing/resale inventory in Ada County when measured month-to-month. More inventory is the key to bring balancee back to the residential real estate market.
  • Looking at existing and new construction combined, the median sales price for July 2018 was at $319,000 – down just 1.7% from June 2018, but up 18.2% from July 2017.
  • REALTORS® caution sellers not to assume the market has turned as the supply-demand ratio (tracked through the Months Supply of Inventory metric) for homes priced under $500,000 in the existing/resale segment was still under 1.5 months — 4-6 months of supply is considered a balanced market, not favoring buyers or sellers.
    This is a nice illustration of how more supply – even a little bit – can affect home prices. But sellers should not assume this means the market has turned. Existing homes only spent an average of 18 days on market before going under contract in July, a near-historic low, and 10.0% faster than in July 2017. And while buyer demand may be starting its typical seasonal slowdown, the supply-demand 1ratio (tracked through the Months Supply of Inventory metric) for homes priced under $500,000 in the existing/resale segment was under 1.5 months. We’re still a far cry from the 4-6 months of supply we need to see the market come totally back into balance.
