As the second quarter of the 2023 real estate market comes to a close, it is time to take a look at what transpired. Let’s take a look at some statistics and wrap it up without overcomplicating it. We will discuss interest rates in a different post, however, they are a key driver in what’s happening in the market.
- Over the past 5 years, the sales volume is down while the sales price is up. The days listed on market is up this year, but still in line with the past two years staying under a month.
- Inventory is way down this year which has driven up single family home prices.
- Weekly active listings confirm the overall inventory shortage.
- Hover over the black dots to see the Sale to List price ratio. This shows us that the limited inventory is still causing multiple offer scenarios pushing the sales price above the list price.
- Even though the sale prices are up, the total dollar volume is down due to the lack of inventory and less sales over the past couple of years.
- Same as before, less monthly listings results in less sales in comparison to last year.
- Similar to the previous slide, just expanded to see the data in a weekly format rather than monthly. You can also see that there is a very similar weekly purchase trend as last year, just that the volume is down.
- Days on market for sold listings is up from last year, but only by a week, still leaving homes on the market for under a month before ACCEPTING an offer and the property going under agreement (UAG).
- Days to offer is just that, how many days on the market before receiving an offer. The days to offer will be lower than the days on market since days will be added to the offer time before accepting the offer and the property going under agreement.
- This is a monthly breakdown of the first slide of sales volume.
- Change in sales volume by zip code. If you have a question about your specific town, send us a message or give us a call to discuss your market.
- Same interactive map as the previous slide, this one just shows the percent change in transactions year over year.
