With interest rates dipping, and home prices at their bumpy bottom, this is the best time to buy a home!!

The statistics for August are a bit soft, but we should remember that summer dips in sales units are common and occur each year, including this one. Evidence of continuing stabilization is that active inventory continues to decline. There is a 13.30% decrease in active listings compared to August 07, to a total of 7,763, the lowest since April 2006.

We are however, not out of the woods quite yet. Pending contracts are down from last year, and the short sales and foreclosure sales (although fewer than in many areas of the country and state) have continued to force the median sale price down to $185,000 and the average sale price down to $238,504 in August. The average price for a single family home was $258,475 and the average price for a town home was $160,720 in August.

Not only is each city different from the rest of the country in it's sales and statistics, but so is each area of Tucson. It should be noted that homes in good condition and priced at market level are still selling, and the average days on market for these homes is stable at 77 days. Please contact us for detailed information and statistics for your area of interest, your neighborhood or zipcode.

We are always happy to hear from you and provide information, or help you in Buying or Selling your property!
