Mt. Hood Real Estate Sales for May 2011

Sunday, June 5, 2011
by Liz Warren

The numbers are in for the month of May 2011 for all Mt. Hood sales. We had a total of four properties close last month. Two were foreclosures. News sources, and NAR have told us sales were down all across the US in April and May's results too are weak. They are particularly down when compared to last year's spring when the first time home buyer credit was winding down.

Here are the sales. The second and third sales are foreclosures.

Mt. Hood Market Action for April 2011

Thursday, May 19, 2011
by Liz Warren

The multiple listing service has just come out with the market stats year to date for area 153 comprised of Government Camp, Welches, Rhododendron, and Brightwood. Pending sales were down nearly 50% compared to this same month last year. Year to date we are down just over 25%. Sales might be down due to the artificial stimulus of the first time home buyer credit from last year. This pushed many buyers forward into the year creating a void of buying over the summer months.

Oddly enough I would think buyers would be rushing in to take advantage of these interest rates and the high level of selection currently available on the market.

Nationally, these numbers match. Here is a chart showing the short sales and foreclosure movement.

Mt. Hood Market Action for March 2011

Saturday, April 16, 2011

The RMLS has just released the "market action" for our mountain area for Government Camp, Welches, Brightwood and Rhododendron listings and sales. This chart compares sales, listings and compares last year from this year at the same benchmark time.

Mt. Hood March Action for 2011

Two numbers jump out at me in the stats. One is the increased marketing time for a sale and secondly the pending sale numbers down nearly 50%. We have historically low interest rates, excellent affordability levels yet buyers are not coming in to swoop up the deals. Some of the biggest names in real estate are saying this is the best time to buy property that we will see in our lifetimes. I'm speaking of Donald Trump, Barbara Corcoran, and John Paulson (who predicted the housing bubble).

Buyers should be jumping in and taking advantage of this time before interest rates creap up. Predictions are that they will hit 5.4-5.7% by the fourth quarter!
