July Residential Highlights We'll I must say that I am not too sure of how accurate July's closed sales are due changing to the new FLEX MLS system as there have been a few glitches. Y-T-D pjrices are down approximately 12%. Closed sales are still increasing with over 8,600 closed sales in July and the Average Days on Market has decreased to 89. These are very positive figures for the last several months, showing that we have possibly hit bottom as closed sales have continued to creep up and have increased every month since Sept. 2007 with the exception of January. Pending sales also showed a jump and are on track to continue to improve over July's closed sales. New listings are continuing to decrease, a very good sign that we are finally selling off the excess inventory. An interesting side note is that Expired and Cancelled listings has also declined showing that the homes on the market are truly the homes that must sale. Current inventory levels are now at a 9 month supply. Now is the time to take advantage of the great buyer opportunities while they are still there! The inventory is great, prices are amazing, and many sellers, including banks, are willing to provide down payment and/or closing assistance, as well make repairs.
