March, April and May are always VERY busy months of buyers (and sellers) signing contracts.  This year was no exception.

As you may recall from last year we had a record-breaking month of contracts in May -- with 171 contracts signed -- the highest number of contracts ever having been signed in any month, ever, in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County.

And this May was certainly a bit slower -- with 143 contracts compared to last May's 171.

But this April we saw an astonishing 158 contracts -- compared to last April's 128 contracts.

So -- in the end, we came up just short of last year when looking at March through May contracts -- with 426 contracts signed compared to 433 last year.

Despite low inventory levels, this year is shaping up to be just about as active of a year as last year for our local real estate market.
