Market Update - Oct 21 through Oct 27

Real Estate Market Update.  
Between Oct 21st and Oct 27th, 32 new homes went for sale in Concord, the lowest priced one was $95,000 – a one bedroom, one bath studio with 592 sq ft; the highest priced one was listed at $779,000 – a four bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms detached home with 2,373 sq ft in a great location.

In the same period of time, twenty seven homes went pending, ranging in price from $89,000 to $1,050,000 (listed price) and thirteen homes were sold and recorded in the public records, the lowest priced one sold for $115,000 ($31,100 over asking price) and the highest priced one sold for $659,000 – ten thousand dollars over asking price.

What does this mean to you?

Buyer or seller, the current pulse tells us that the real estate market has shifted and has become more stable, five more homes newly listed than the number of homes that went pending (hint: more inventory).

If you are a buyer, you may not have to be so concerned with competing with other buyers to get your offer accepted; as long as you're pre-approved with a reputable lender, you should be able to get the home of your dream at the asking price, depending on the condition of the home.

As I have mentioned before in a previous post, the market has shifted from just a few months ago; we keep getting more inventory of homes for sale and there are fewer buyers, balancing the scale; we are still getting multiple offers, however they are only on the best available properties and best presented ones (think staging) and/or the best priced properties.

Disclosure.

This is my opinion, in no way do I have a crystal ball, and while I would like to think I have an open line with God, He is not whispering real estate advice in my ear.

I want more.
