Current Housing Market Trends In Four Lines, Two Curves


Current Housing Market Trends In Four Lines, Two Curves
By Scott Rogers • November 15, 2022
I sent out a long and detailed market report yesterday with lots of data, charts and graphs. You can find it here. But maybe you don't want to read something that long. ;-) For those that don't, enjoy a comprehensive(ish) understanding of the market described above with four lines and two curves. SALES - we have started to see fewer sales over the past four months PRICES - the median sales price keeps on rising INVENTORY - after starting to see some increases we are now seeing what is likely a seasonal decline in the number of homes for sale CONTRACTS - we have seen multiple months of declining contract activity DAYS ON MARKET - homes are still selling fast... very fast RATES - mortgage interest rates keep on rising Sure, this leaves out some of the nuance in yesterday's report, but it should give you a good enough primer to understand the basic market dynamics at play right now in the Harrisonburg and Rockingham County real estate market.
