August 2023
Higher mortgage rates, along with elevated sales prices and a lack of housing inventory, have continued to impact market activity during the summer homebuying season. The average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has remained above 6.5% since May, recently hitting a two-decade high in August, according to Freddie Mac. As a result, existing-home sales have continued to slow nationwide, dropping 2.2% month-over-month as of last measure, with sales down 16.6% compared to the same time last year, according to the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR).
New Listings decreased 9.8 percent for Single Properties and 3.7 percent for Townhouse/Condo. Pending Sales decreased 31.4 percent for Single Properties and 23.3 percent for Townhouse/Condo. Inventory decreased 4.6 percent for Single Properties but increased 32.0 percent for Townhouse/Condo.
The Median Sales Price increased 2.5 percent to $292,000 for Single Properties and 17.0 percent to $250,000 for Townhouse/Condo. Days on Market increased 68.8 percent for Single Properties and 42.9 percent for Townhouse/Condo. Months Supply of Inventory increased 20.0 percent for Single Properties and 63.6 percent for Townhouse/Condo.
Falling home sales have done little to cool home prices, however, which have continued to sit at record high levels nationally thanks to a limited supply of homes for sale. According to NAR, there were 1.11 million homes for sale heading into August, 14.6% fewer homes than the same period last year, for a 3.3 months’ supply at the current sales pace. The shortage of homes for sale has boosted competition for available properties and is driving sales prices higher, with NAR reporting a national median existing-home price of $406,700, a 1.9% increase from a year earlier.
📈 Overall, the market in the Triad is thriving with high demand, quick sales, and competitive prices. As your trusted REALTOR®, I am here to guide you through this exciting market and help you achieve your real estate goals. Don't hesitate to reach out!
