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.
