This year had the best sold homes with the least amount of new listings. That is the column that is most important. June was the best month over all this year.

Most years it is the Spring months that see the most new listings. The economist’s keep saying we will see more of the same next year. We will have to wait and see if the Infrastructure bill that was past has an effect on the new listings. There might be more movement where the projects are. Some states have shovel-ready projects.

You can see how the new listings decreased every year since 2019. That is the reason for the price increases. Until we see enough homes on the market to satisfy buyer demand prices will continue to rise.

June was the best month for all three. Sales tend to slow down the last 2 months of the year. We are already ahead of January and February with closed homes and we have a little more than a week to go.

New listings have slowed down. Buyers are still out there waiting for more homes to come on the market. Prices have slowed some buyers down, but there are still buyers out there ready to buy even though prices have increased.

Getting a contract on a home is not the hard part. There are so many things to get through to get to closing. You want someone that will stay on top of things and overcome any obstacles that might pop up so you get to closing.

Appraisals are one of those obstacles that are happening right now. Prices are rising, but you need to find comparable properties to show the lender that it is worth that price. If the appraisal comes in low you will have to renegotiate or the buyer will need to bring into closing the difference in cash besides the rest of the closing costs.

Request a home valuation if you are thinking about selling your home. We will provide you with a net proceeds that shows you the expenses to sell. This will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms so you can make a good decision.

Are you thinking about buying a home? The first step is to gather all your financial information and get it to a loan officer so they can get you pre approved. They will provide you with a letter that will go with an offer when you find a home. This shows the seller that you qualify for their home. Just talking to a loan officer and giving them your information is not good enough anymore. You need to go through the extra step of getting them all your financial information.

Resources:

You can also check different sites for current interest rates. If you have a loan officer they can keep you up to date with the rates that they offer and any incentives they might have.

If you need recommendations for loan officers, real estate attorney or home inspectors we can give you a few to contact and you can decide who you want to work with.
