Are Rising Home Prices Good?

Real Estate statistics can only be interpreted when you classify yourself as either the Buyer or the Seller.  Some people grumble about newspaper reports or National Association of Realtor forecasts as being too rosy. 

So lets just give you the facts and you tell me!

Single Family median home prices were UP for the 11th straight month in September.  This is compared to year-over-year months.

Single Family home sales in September fell 13.8% from September 2009 results.  This is the 3rd  straight month of year-over-year declines.

Want a larger sampling of data to digest?  Let’s look at quarterly results:

Single Family median home prices rose 5% in the 3rd  qtr compared to 2009′s 3rd  qtr.

Single Family number of sales fell 20.7% last quarter, compared to the same quarter of 2009.

Conclusion (end of the facts): 

If you are a Buyer in this market you are in high demand, but don’t be late to get in the game because prices of the best homes are heading up.

If you are a Seller, it may take you longer to sell but if you are priced accurately, show great, and are reasonable in negotiations, you will be doing just fine (compared to last year).
