Real Estate Market Trends

If you're like a lot of other consumers, trite slogans and marketing come- ons aren't convincing. Especially when it comes to the most expensive investment you may ever make; numbers are far pithier.


Think about it -- which of these is of more value to you: “Now is the best time to buy or sell a house!” or “Real Estate Market Report for Yourtown, Yourstate?”


Not only is this section of ActiveRain chock full of up-to-date real estate market reports but market statistics and market trends as well. Best of all, they're written in plain English by the experts – those that actually work in these markets on a daily basis.

What’s the Value of My Del Mar Home? Del Mar Home Sales for December 2024 Del Mar is a North San Diego County seaside community and one of the more expensive coastal towns. According to the MLS the most expensive San Diego County property sold publicly was in Del Mar (about $48,000,000 in 2007). That oceanfront property was sold again in June 2020 for $43M. Having current information on the local housing market conditions in Del Mar is essential so that buyers and sellers can make informed decisions about Del Mar homes for sale.

This week the median list price for Gilbert, AZ is $665,000 with the market action index hovering around 38. This is less than last month's market action index of 39. Inventory has decreased to 487. In the last few weeks, the market has achieved a relative stasis point in terms of sales to inventory. However, inventory is sufficiently low to keep us in the Seller’s Market zone so watch changes in the MAI. If the market heats up, prices are likely to resume an upward climb. The market is hovering around this plateau. Look for a persistent change in the Market Action Index before we see prices deviate from these levels.   YOUR   Latest activity in the VALLEY of the SUNFor ALL your Valley AZ Real Estate NeedsPHONE   Bill   at   602-999-0952Text          Bill   at    602-999-0952Email      ...

Some experts are predicting the housing market to collapse! What do you think?   Predictions of a housing market collapse often grab attention, but they need context. While some experts forecast a downturn, it’s crucial to look at the underlying data and market conditions. Here's a breakdown: Factors Suggesting a Downturn High Mortgage Rates: Increased interest rates have reduced affordability, sidelining many buyers. Inflation and Economic Uncertainty: Persistent inflation and concerns about a possible recession can dampen consumer confidence. Overvalued Markets: Some areas experienced rapid price increases, making them vulnerable to corrections. Counteracting Factors Low Inventory: A major driver of the current market is the shortage of homes. Even if demand slows, limited supply mig...
