For the past several years the real estate trends have favored home sellers. There doesn’t seem to be any let-up on this trend for the rest of the year. And, continue through most of 2020. The good news for home buyers is that rates on loan for home buyers have stayed the lowest in decades and should continue down for the rest of 2019 and throughout 2020.
Shifting Trends
Redwood City CA: We are seeing softening of the average sale price for homes settling in Redwood City. And the length of time on the market for homes to sell still favor Sellers. The Sale Price vs List Price ratio is up. Last week it was 10.7%! The months of inventory available for homes continues to be as it usually is during the Holidays. Which translate to more homes for buyers to choose from. The number of new homes brought on the market for sale is maintaining equal amounts as the number of homes sold. The growth of new home inventory remains almost nil. If you’re a home buyer NOW is the time to beat the Spring rush and more competition. You’ve got until Super Bowl Sunday before the rush.
We are seeing an uptick of home prices being reduced or cancelled and being relisted at a reduced price. This has been unheard of for the past few years. This is forcing home sellers to price their homes in line to their true market value.
