Market Recap for June 2023

Single family units sold was down 19% from June 2022.

Both Avg and Median Price is up 4-5% from June 2022

Both Active Inventory and New Listings are down from June 2022 from 15-22%

All in all, if you're in the market to either buy or sell, it is a good time to really make sure you're making the move that's right for you.

For buyers - Inventory is sitting longer allowing buyers to not have to make risky offers to get into a home unlike 2021-2022.

For sellers - While homes are still sitting longer, prices are staying strong. It's still a good time to capitalize on the equity in your home if you're in the market to sell.

Regardless of your real estate needs, having a professional by your side is what you need to ensure you are making the right move.

January 2023 Greater Cincinnati Real Estate update.

Key Takeaways here. Homes might still be higher in price than buyers would like to see, but that doesn't mean you won't get a deal in the market.

Units Sold, New Listings, New Pendings are all down YoY.

Prices are up YoY but only slightly. 5% on avg.

Avg Days on Market are way up YoY.

If you're a buyer, interest rates may be up, but the market is leaning in your favor compared to 2022 and 2021.

This map is exactly one year ago today for 30 year fixed rate avg mortgage rates in the United States.

Stunning to see for sure, and you may be unable to purchase the same home today you could have one year ago.

That being said, homes are sitting on the market longer than they were a year ago (not by much, but they are) and there are deals still to be found

Interested in purchasing a home? - let's set up a meeting to discuss your options and best route to take.

Interested in selling an existing home? - My guess is you bought your home more than 7 years ago because it's been a while since interest rates were near 7%. Either way, let's set up a time to outline the best path on selling your home in an upcoming spring market.

Knowledge in the market is power folks, and that knowledge will help you get the best deal for you and your family regardless of whether you are buying or selling.

To end 2022 and start 2023, trends are pointing towards a swing to a buyers market, but not for a few years to truly balance the market.

Been a while since I've left some real estate stats for those looking to dive into today's market.

While interest rates have increased and buying power has decreased, we are still very much in a sellers market.

That said, active inventory is up as of April 2022 with inventory still averaging less than 20 days on the market.

Regardless of your situation, I'm happy to assist buyers and sellers in any capacity.

Congratulations to my sellers and buyers on their closings yesterday.

This may have been one of the more challenging closings we've had with no fault at all to my amazing clients, but we got it done and everyone is able to move on to the next chapter in their lives.

Shopping local doesn't have to just mean retail. When you are searching for a home to purchase, a local Loan Officer in your community is far more likely to get a deal done on time and not tack on extra fees at closing to cover their corporations overhead.

Just a thought to consider. Even for special financing such as VA or USDA loans, a local lender that can handle the loans and offer the programs will be far more beneficial in your home buying journey than someone who lives across the country.

Potential Home Sellers.

Zillow may be tempting to go when it comes to selling because they do make a competitive offer and takes all the BS out of selling your home through the MLS......

HOWEVER

- They give you essentially what you would list your home at or even less than what you could list at through the MLS or FSBO.

- They charge a Service Fee of 11% which includes the 3% buyers agent fee they pay when THEY SELL THE HOME. Essentially your paying a buyers agent fee and it isn't even for the people buying your home from you. Rather it's for the peoples agent who buy the house from Zillow.

INSTEAD

- You could list your home at the same price they offer you or more and most likely in this market sell it for over asking price and net far more. Even if you sell under ask or right at list price, you will net THOUSANDS MORE than selling to Zillow.

Yes it takes all the headaches away from selling your home in a traditional manner through an agent. But you are also giving us a significant amount more than paying a 4.5-6% Realtor Fee as typically occurs.

However if you own your house outright or just don't care about making an extra 10-40K or more on the sale of your home and just want an easy and seamless process, that may be the best route to take.

FSBO is always an option too.

Just some food for thought in this wild market.
