Regional Fall Sales Enjoy Late Season Boost
Arroyo Grande, CA – December 19, 2016— November home sales in Central Coastal and Ventura Регионы rose 25 to 30 percent above 2015 levels as buyers took advantage of historically low interest rates before they shot up over 4 percent following the election. Despite inventories of homes for sale at yearly lows, the combination of strong demand and short supplies kept prices at seasonal highs, consolidating gains from the region’s hot spring and summer sales season.
Prices well above last year’s levels failed to encourage sellers, and new listings in November reflected seasonal patterns, reaching the lowest level in the Central Coastal region since last December. The time it took to sell homes in the region also reflected the slower pace of the fall sales season as the median days to settle rose for the third straight month.
“The rapid increase in rates resonated with Central Coastal home buyers, who responded with a late-year boost in home sales across the region. Many of the homes that sold in November had been listed for three months or longer, awaiting buyers motivated by rising rates. The November surge is helping 2017 to end as an exceptional year, with both sales and prices well above last year and far above annuals norms. As we enter the holiday season, conditions are exceptionally good for sellers who find themselves in the market and for buyers looking for value before the year ends,” said Amy Gallagher, corporate broker of record for CENTURY 21 Hometown Realty.
In November, CENTURY 21 Hometown Realty closed on 82 homes totaling $34 Million bringing its total year-to-date sales to 1277 homes worth $535 Million
