March thru May Contracts Strong, Again, in 2019

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.
