How many homes closed 2,000 square feet or more week 34

How many homes closed 2,000 square feet or more week 34. This is one way to search homes that you are looking for if you know less than 2,000 square feet will not work for you. We will let you know how this week went shortly.

New listings of single family homes was down this week. 221 this week compared to 256 the week before. So many people are getting the kids in school this past week. It is a big adjustment especially for the kids that did not attend in-person school last year. Hopefully things will settle down and get back to thinking about housing.

Closed listings of single family homes were also down. 273 this week compared to 299 the week before. This is the last full week of the month. Monday and Tuesday the last days of the month. We are back to scheduling things around school. During last year with the pandemic, and kids not attending in-person classes, people were not worrying about the school schedule.

More homes have been closed this year than the previous 2 years even with a tighter market. You can see the steady decline in new listings. Normally, August is the best month for closings right before school starts. This year it was June. It has been a really hard year for buyer’s. They have had so much competition for homes and not many to choose from. Prices have gone up so much that some have been priced out of the market. We hope inventory will improve.

Seller’s are still choosing Conventional financing over anything else. I am encouraged to see FHA numbers going up. Some buyer’s that have to go FHA have given up. They are tired of losing out to buyer’s using Conventional financing with multiple offer situations.

Out of 299 homes that closed this week 191 of them were 2,000 square feet or more. Median list price is $425,000, closed price is $420,000. Minimum list price $220,000, closed price $242,000. So many people are looking for more space since the pandemic. This gives you an idea of what price that will cost you. If you are below this price it will be hard to find. You might need to adjust the criteria for the home you are looking for.

We started out the year with closings from 2020. They received a contract in 2020 but did not close until 2021. That is why the closed column is more than the new listings. You can see it has been a really tight market. Normally you would see more new listings than closings.

It still remains a seller’s market. There might be fewer offers with multiple offer situations, but there are still a lot of buyer’s out there ready to go.

There has been an extreme shortage of housing across the country. Some new homes have been built in our area that have helped.

How many VA deals closed in week 32

How many VA deals closed in week 32? Shortly we will break it down for you what types of financing was chosen most this week. There are many veterans that live in the Fox Valley area. We do not know how many VA offers were not accepted, but we do know how many closed this week.

First we will talk about new listings for the week. New listings were down. 251 this week compared to 264 the week before. This is making a low inventory situation even worse.

Closed listings were also down. 291 this week compared to 340 the week before. This will increase as we get closer to the end of the month.

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.

1 short sale was accepted buy a seller in St Charles. It will now be submitted to the lender to see if they will also accept. With the prices increasing not too many people have to sell for less than what they owe. This is a great time, if you are in a bind, to sell.

Seller’s accepted contracts that are contingent on the buyer closing on their current home. 1 with a kick-out clause of 72 hours and 8 with 48 hours.

The numbers are so tight. We started out the year with more closed then new listings, but normally the new listings would have a bigger gap between them and closed. The contracts accepted is higher, because some homes that get a contract accepted come back on the market because of home inspection or attorney review issues. Some appraisals are coming in lower than the contract price and it can’t go through without seller dropping price or buyer coming in with the difference in cash.

Thinking about buying this year? You need to get in touch with a loan officer to get pre approved. Get them all our financial information so they can get you through the pre approval process. Just getting a pre-qualification is just not good enough anymore with most homes having multiple offers. You need to be ready to go look as soon as a home hits the market and ready to write an offer. They go fast.

What financing was the most common for week 30

What financing was the most common for week 30? We will fill you in on that shortly. First we will look at how many new listings of single family homes in the Fox Valley area of Illinois. New listings were down. 265 this week compared to 289 the week before.

Closed listings of single family homes were up. 365 this week compared to 306 the week before. A great ending to the month of July.

What financing was the most common for week 30-New an Closed — New and Closed listings

Take a look at the communities with the most activity this week:

Aurora-New 40 $160,000-$770,000

Closed-49 $100,000-$725,000

Batavia-New 11 $265,000-$775,000

Closed-8 $265,000-$700,000

Bolingbrook-New 22 $195,900-$498,900

Closed-23 $200,000-$535,000

Geneva-New 15 $240,000-$695,000

Closed-17 $324,000-$861,606

Montgomery-New 6 $220,000-$345,000

Closed-14 $200,000-$390,000

Naperville-New 38 $224,900-$1,500,000

Closed-67 $290,000-$1,335,000

Oswego-New 11 $215,000-$699,500

Closed-15 $232,000-$540,000

Plainfield-New 37 $214,900-$675,000

Closed-46 $188,000-$680,000

St Charles-New 18 $185,000-$2,350,000

Closed-39 $195,000-$1,845,000

Yorkville-New 9 $39,900-$590,000

Closed-13 $243,000-$577,000

If you are looking to buy and did not see the price range you are looking for in these communities click on the picture to see the other communities and see if you find your price range there.

As you can see from the communities listed that only one community had more new listings than closed. That was Batavia. It will continue to be a seller’s market until this tips the other way.

What financing was the most common for week 30?

It makes a big difference in what financing you choose to go with. Of course cash is king if the price is right, but not everyone has that opportunity.

Conventional financing this week 281 last week 238.

Cash this week 38 last week 27

What financing was the most common for week 30-FHA VA 073121 — FHA and VA

FHA this week 38 last week 36

VA this week 8 last week 5

So many people are using Conventional financing, because that is what the seller’s are choosing when they have multiple offers. FHA and VA are harder to get accepted even if you are not asking for help with closing costs.

It has been hard for buyers that need to use FHA financing.

Median list price this week $373,700 last week $360,000.

Median closed price this week $390,000 last week $379,000.

As prices increase more buyers are left out of the market. It is wonderful for seller’s.

Contracts accepted this week

Contracts accepted this week were down. 297 this week compared to 322 the week before.

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

Aurora-42 Bolingbrook-25

Geneva-19 Montgomery-12

Naperville-41 Oswego-17

Plainfield-34 St Charles-27

West Chicago-10 Yorkville-10

No short sales were accepted by seller’s this week.

So many more homes were closed this year than the previous 2 years. New listings steadily declined from 2019 until this year. Inventory of homes were low in 2019, but look where they are this year. This is why the prices have increased so much.

Communities need to increase housing either with new construction or repurposing commercial property to help increase inventory so buyers have a chance.
