October 2016
As we enter the final quarter of 2016, not much has changed since the year
began. Market predictions have been, in a word, predictable. A relatively
comfortable pace of activity has been maintained thanks to continuing low
unemployment and mortgage rates. The one basic drag on market
acceleration has been inventory decline. There is little to indicate that the low
inventory situation will resolve anytime soon.
Closed Sales decreased 0.9 percent for existing homes but increased 2.9
percent for new homes. Pending Sales increased 15.6 percent for existing
homes and 12.0 percent for new homes. Inventory decreased 31.1 percent for
existing homes and 2.3 percent for new homes.
The Median Sales Price was up 6.5 percent to $168,275 for existing homes
and 6.4 percent to $359,975 for new homes. Days on Market decreased 13.6
percent for existing homes but increased 3.5 percent for new homes. Supply
decreased 34.3 percent for existing homes and 9.1 percent for new homes.
Builder confidence is as high as it has been in more than a decade, yet the
pace of economic growth has been slow enough to cause pause. A low
number of first-time buyer purchases and a looming demographic shift also
seem to be curbing the desire to start new single-family construction projects.
As older Americans retire and downsize, single-family listings are expected to
rise. The waiting is the hardest part.
