Summary
Market activity continues to be strong despite having half as many available listings as this time last year. September new pendings dropped off slightly compared to the prior month but were up 35% compared to last year. As seen above, daily new pendings continue to run nearly 30% higher than a year ago. YTD closed sales are down 7%, but that gap is narrowing (it was 12% last month) and closed sales should be even by the end of the year. Values continue to rise with YTD average sale price up 8% and price per square foot up 7%. The market continues to be strong as it’s started into the fourth quarter. It’s not too late for sellers to jump in and take advantage of the great market opportunities.
