MA has 2nd biggest increase in home sales in October
Good news Massachusetts!
Home sales are on the rise and for the 18th straight month, homes put under agreement were up over the same month last year.
This is the 2nd biggest increase in Massachusetts home sales since 2007. This news from the MAR Report:
Single-family pending home sales were up 35.9% compared to October 2011
This is the second biggest increase next to the final month of the home buyer tax credit in April 2010
Single-family month-to-month pending home sales were up 6.45% from September 2012
Condo pending home sales were up 42.99% compared to October 2011
Condo pending month-to-month home sales were up 6.56% from September 2012
While we still have some distance to cover in the housing recovery, these signs are good and things in Massachusetts real estate are looking better!
Here is the answer to the perennial question: How is the market in Western MA?
I get asked almost daily how the market is in Western Massachusetts. Instead of just answering with platitudes, I like to have some concrete information to give people…I think that is why they asked in the first place.
So I am happy to be able to tell you that according to Park Square Realty, our listings sold numbers are up 25% over 2011 before we even finish the calendar year!
These sales reflect only through October 2012, which means the grand total will be higher, but I didn’t want to wait to share the good news!
What this means if you are a seller: the market is slowly recovering and home prices are stabilizing in most areas of Western MA. More homes are selling than previously and right now the news for you is even better because our inventory is really low! If you are considering making a move, get your home on the market now and you will have less competition and more qualified and motivated buyers.
What this means if you are a buyer: home prices will soon be on the rise and the house you want will cost more. Interest rates are at a lifetime low right now, what more incentive do you need?
I am the Top Agent for listings sold in 2011 at Park Square Realty. I have a 24yr track record of proven results and I utilize unique marketing techniques that other agents don’t understand. If you are considering putting your home on the market, I hope you will give me a chance to interview for the position of “The Agent that Got Your Home Sold”!
