Contracts accepted this week

Fox Valley home prices April 2 2022-Contracts accepted this week

Contracts accepted this week were consistent.  220 this week compared to 222 the previous week.  That is pretty consistent.  They would be higher though with more listings.  We are still dealing with not enough homes for the buyers that are out there looking.

Look at the communities seller’s accepted the most contracts this week:

Aurora-26                   Bolingbrook-20

Montgomery-12           Naperville-41

Oswego-14                  Plainfield-28

St Charles-13             Sycamore-12

No short sales were accepted by seller’s this week.  Some people that are struggling can sell and still get money at closing.  Prices have increased enough that they do not have to sell short.

Seller’s accepted contracts that are contingent on the buyer closing on their current home. 1 each with a kick-out clause of 72, 48 and 24 hours.

Also, seller’s accepted contracts that are contingent on the buyer selling and closing on their current home.  4 with a kick-out clause of 48 hours and 1 with 24 hours.

The median price of the 220 homes that received contracts this week was $369,950 with 20 days average market time.  Last week 222 homes received a contract with median price of $394,950 with 20 days average market time.  We will not know the price they agreed to until they close.

New listings has decreased every year.  This is why prices have increased.

More of the homes that have gone under contract that actually closed has increased every year.  It has helped that loan officers are putting buyer’s through underwriting instead of just getting their information over the phone and checking their credit.  We know the buyer’s are good to go and just need to make sure the appraisal works out and no issues with title.

It is still a seller’s market here in the Fox Valley.  Prices continue to rise because of the low inventory of homes for sale.  This is a great time to be a seller.  It is frustrating to be a buyer.

Request a home valuation if you are thinking about selling your home and want to know what the value is in today’s market.  Give us some information about your home and what has recently been updated.  We will let you know what the expenses to sell might be.  This will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms so you can make a good decision.

Get in touch with a loan officer and get them all your financial information and have them run you through underwriting so you are approved subject to the address, appraisal and title work if you are thinking about buying.  You have to be ready to go in this market .  It moves fast and if you haven’t completed this you will lose out on a home.

Set up email alerts so you receive listings as they hit the market so you don’t miss out on anything.

This is a fantastic time to be a seller!  By the time you get to closing the temperatures will be better for moving.  Request a home valuation and we will give you and estimate of what your home is worth in today’s market.  We will provide you with a net proceeds that shows you the expenses to sell.  The net proceeds will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms so you can see what you will walk away with so you can make a good decision.

If you want to be a buyer you have to be patient and aggressive.  You will be up against multiple offers so you need to be aggressive with pricing and patient because not everyone can win.  If you need to get financing you have to get all your financial information to a loan officer and go through underwriting so all you need is to update title and order appraisal.  Anything less will not get accepted.  No more waiting until the weekend to look because it will be gone by then.

We will guide you through the process and let you know what needs to be done.
