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.  For further details, view our Real Estate Update newsletter, updated daily.

Please post, call, or send us an email if you'd like to further discuss current trends in the Chicago Real Estate Market, or customize our data to match your specific needs.  We're always here for you!
