Detroit Real Estate Market Update for Summer 2014

 It's summertime in Oakland and Wayne counties, and we are
currently experiencing a hot sellers market. Homes are moving
extremely fast. Most are not even lasting three days on the market,
while some of the "lingerers" are, in reality, only on the market
for 7-10 days. That is an incredible number and the situation could
not be more perfect for anybody who want to sell their home. Here
are some more important things you should know about our market so
you can make the best decision possible for your real estate
needs.


The average days a home spends on the market is around 27
days, but our team has an average of 19 days.

We are seeing very little inventory in places like Novi,
Northville, Farmington Hills and Livonia. There are not many
homes on the market in these places and the best homes go very
quickly and command top dollar.

Over May and June, we did see inventory levels increase about
15% from the spring, so we are easing back a little bit on the 7
or 8 offer situation we were seeing, which is good news for
buyers because there is not as much competition as there was in
the spring. However, we are still seeing multiple offers on
almost every home.

Right now, interest rates remain at a historic low. They have
risen to around 4.25%, but that number is still extremely low.
Since 1989, the average interest rate has been about 8.9%, and we
are under half that.


If you have any questions about the real estate market or are
interested in buying or selling a home, please give us a call. We
would love to help you out with all of your real estate needs.
