Median closed price this week $375,000, and last week $365,000.
The median list and closed prices have been fluctuating up and down, but basically staying in the same range.
Conventional deals that closed this week 221, and last week 248.
Cash deals that closed this week 33, and last week 39.
FHA deals that closed this week 26, and last week 41.
VA deals that closed this week 9, and last week 12.
Totals were down in each one. We do not know how many VA loan offers are not getting accepted, but the trend you can see is seller’s are accepting more Conventional loans then anything else. Hopefully, it is not that agents are shying away from VA loans because they think they will be hard or take longer to close. If a home is in good condition there should be no problem with getting a VA loan approved. Using a lender that is familiar with the process is very important.

We started out the year ahead with closed homes. Deals that were accepted in 2020 that closed in the beginning of the year. There is usually a gap between new and closed, but not this year.
It continues to be a seller’s market. We are still seeing multiple offers, but it is not as intense. We are starting to see price reductions on some of the higher priced homes.
