What’s Happening in the Market? March 2020 stats

As expected we have seen a dramatic increase in Sold prices for February 2020 numbers over the same time last year.  This is primarily due to the 4th Quarter correction in 2018 of homes that closed in February 2019.   Market times are falling and Multiple offers are heating up as February 2020 saw more than a 1/3 of the homes sell for over asking price by an average of 5%.  Inventory has now dipped to 0.8 Months and even though some Buyers & Sellers have put their Real Estate decisions on hold due to current uncertainties (Virus/Stock Market/Economy) we are still seeing strong activity. This might well be the case for some time to come as interest rates are at an all-time low (3.47%), prices continue to rise and jobs keep flowing into area at a steady pace
