May Real Estate Stats – Balanced Market Continues!

June 5, 2019

Balanced Market means better news for sellers!

While May has come out with almost every indice being down Year over Year across almost every segment the results are lower inventories, while “Days on Market” are still higher Year over Year.

Pricing, # of New Listings, # of Sold Listings all down year over year, therefore increasing the likelihood of prices stabilizing as inventories drop. This includes the number of new listings being lower than last year.

While too early to be definitive, it’s possible the buyers market may be behind us which may signal a more focused effort from buyers in the market to act sooner vs later on the consideration of potential values increasing if inventory continues to trend as it is.
