OBSERVATIONS

No alarm for increase in Expired Listings – most real estate listing agreements signed by brokers expire End of Month. We are encouraged by increase in Average Sale Prices – but remember this is only on week compared to the previous week and many closings take place last week in each month. However this taken along with our personal on-the-ground experience indicates some pent-up Spring demand for residential property.

RATE CHECK

Average 30-Year Fixed Mortgage Rates for the w/e May 3rd were unchanged from the previous week – 6.16%. One year ago the Average 30-Year Fixed Rate was 6.59%. It appears Interest Rates are not a factor in creating the current Buyer’s Market – high levels of available inventory for sale is the biggest contributing factor in our opinion.
