Nationwide, May pending home sales reached their

highest level in Nine Years!

National Association of Realtors’ chief economist

Lawrence Yun attributed this to

the steady pace of solid job creation for over a year.

The national median sales price of an existing home is 7.9% higher than a year ago. Sales increased in all

areas of the country.

The majority of Americans believe real estate is the best long-term investment, over

gold, stocks, savings accounts and bonds, according to a

recent Gallup poll.

Fannie May’s May 2015 Housing Survey shows 66% of Americans prefer to buy

their next house rather than rent.

That same Fannie Mae Housing Survey reported 49% of people surveyed

said it is a good time to sell a home!

Even better news: 28% of consumers saw their household income

grow substantially in the past year!

In New Jersey, May home sale contracts rose to nearly

the highest level since March 2006!

76% of NJ counties have less than 8 months of

housing supply, which is a balance point for home prices, according to the

Otteau Group.

The Mortgage Bankers Association reports that

mortgage application volume is up 22% over

mid-July last year.

This is consistent with a buying market positively

affected by employment growth.

Historic Home PricesRemember,

when adjusted for inflation, American home prices increased by

an average of about half a percentage point per year

from 1890 through 2008, according to data compiled by Yale University Professor Robert Shiller.

If you are a Buyer,

• with today’s low interest rates, still hovering around 4% for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages, AFFORDABILITY is HIGH, but will fall as prices and mortgage rates rise!

• consult with an experienced New Jersey mortgage counselor to assess your buying power and position yourself in the market.

If you are a Seller,

• Accurate pricing is all important.

• Professional staging makes the difference in getting a good, negotiable offer.

• Pre-inspection, with problems resolved before listing, prevents unwelcome surprises when your buyer has a home inspection.

With an eye to Moving This Year!

How do we assess strength and vitality in our real estate markets?

By checking the “Absorption Rate,” the number of homes available

divided by the number of homes that have gone under contract

in the past 30 days.

It is our most accurate measure of current market strength.

Market Scale for Supply & DemandMarket Scale for Supply & DemandWeichert, Realtors has been studying market conditions for more than 3 decades and has found a direct correlation between market absorption rates and property values.

As absorption rates increase beyond a normal market level of 5-6 months, property values depreciate annually. As they decrease below 5 months, they increase—inverse proportion. Although different markets may not see the amount of decrease shown here, the pressure on prices will be similar.
