Monthly Market Report
   Featured Property:  310 Victoria Drive, Bridgewater, VA 22812

I just published my monthly report on the Harrisonburg and Rockingham County real estate market -- click here to review the entire report online -- or click here to download the full PDF.  Below are a few highlights you might be interested to know about....

Monthly Market Report

As shown above, home sales in March were the lowest that we have seen over the past several years.  This is undoubtedly due to the absurdly low temperatures this winter PLUS the many snowfalls PLUS the many days that schools were closed.  Now that the warmer weather is upon us we will hopefully see an increase in home sales come April and May.

Monthly Market Report

We also saw a smaller number (91) of buyers sign contracts during March as compared to last March (114) --- though an increase from March 2012 (87).  Let's hope that the warm Spring days of April will lead to many (many!) buyers going to see houses and sign contracts.

Monthly Market Report

A significant part of whether buyers will write offers is related to whether they are finding compelling houses on the market -- and we're finally starting to see increases in inventory levels.  These new listings will hopefully rejuvenate buyer interest and get them off of the sidelines and into the buying market.

Monthly Market Report

Amidst a few market indicators that aren't as positive as they could be, here is one bright spot --- sales prices of attached dwellings (duplexes, townhouses, condominiums) are going UP!
