Well, I knew I shouldn’t have made a prediction last week. I said the inventory would increase and of course the opposite happened. We had an unusually high number of pendings this week which took a some inventory off the market.
There were only 13 closings which is unusually low but this should increase, (notice I said “should” not “will”).
There has been a noticable increase in activity this week. In addition to the pendings that show up on the chart there are a lot more buyers out there looking at houses. We have been extremely busy here at Valley Market showing houses to prospective buyers.
Below is the chart from the week of Jan 22-26
| Number of Listings | Average Price | Median Price | DOM | |
| New | 24 | $231,150 | $222,000 | |
