Asking Price Per Square Foot Average Days on Market (DoM) Inventory of Properties Listed Most Expensive Listing

Inventory has been lightening lately and the Market Action Index has been trending up. Though days-on-market is increasing, these are mildly positive indications for the market.

Supply and Demand

Home sales have been exceeding new inventory for several weeks. However prices have not yet stopped falling. Since the market is already in the Seller's zone, expect prices to level off very soon. Should the sales trend continue expect that prices could climb from there.

Median Price
The market has been on a downward trend recently and this week, while essentially flat, doesn't break us out of that cycle.

7-day Average

90-day Average

Quartile Prices
The market is showing mild price weakness lately. Quartiles 1 and 2 are basically flat. Notice however, that Quartile 4 at the low-end of the market is still on an up-trend. Often this condition happens in markets where demand has fallen but supply is still relatively short. Buyers are focusing on the lowest price homes in the area.

Price per Square Foot

We're seeing fairly unusual market conditions as prices have been in a downward trend but price per square foot is actually increasing. (Buyers are paying less and getting less home for their money.) Anomalies like these can be attributed to microlocation variables.

7-day Average

90-day Average

Inventory of Properties Listed for Sale

Inventory has been falling in recent weeks. Note that declining inventory alone does not signal a strengthening market. Look to the Market Action Index and Days on Market trends to gauge whether buyer interest is changing with the available supply.

Market Action Index

The FREMONT market is currently quite strongly in the Seller's Advantage zone (greater than 30). The 90-day Market Action Index stands at 57.03; indicating very little supply relative to the demand.

Buyers/Sellers Cutoff

Market Action Index per Quartile

Not surprisingly, all segments in the market are showing high levels of demand. Watch the quartiles for changes before the whole market changes. Often one end of the market (e.g. the high-end) will weaken before the rest of the market and signal a slowdown for the whole group.

Buyers/Sellers Cutoff
Residential house prices are a function of supply and demand, and market conditions can be characterized by analyzing those factors. Watch this index for sustained changes: if the index falls into the Buyers Advantage zone (below 30) for a long period, prices are likely in for a downward correction.
