Today we’re going to talk all about the summer market: what
happened, what it means for you, and what you can expect as we
transition into fall.

There are five long-term indicators that show how our market is
doing, along with one short-term indicator. The long-term
indicators include:




Inventory is down from last year.




The rate at which inventory is accumulating is down.




The number of closed transactions is up.




The median price point is up.




The list-to-sale price ratio is up.





All long-term indicators point to a strong seller’s market.



All these long-term indicators point to us being in a strong
seller’s market, but the short-term indicator is different. Over
the last seven days, we’ve started to see the number of new
listings outpace the number of pending transactions. We’ll keep
an eye on this trend to see if it continues. You should keep an
eye on it as well.


If you have any questions for us about the market or anything
else about real estate, give me a call or send me an email. I
look forward to hearing from you.
