Welcome, future homeowners and investors! As your trusted real estate agent, I'm thrilled to guide you through the exciting journey of finding your dream property or making savvy investments. This month, we have some fantastic featured articles highlighting the latest trends in the housing market.
Existing home sales stuck
May existing (previously owned) home sales were flat month-over-month at 4.03 million units on an annualized basis, while median sales prices rose just 1.3% year-over-year. Total housing inventory (this includes homes already under contract, but not yet closed) climbed above 1.5 million units for the first time in five years.
Rates drift lower
Over the last month, average 30-year mortgage rates have declined by roughly 25 basis points (that's 0.25% or one quarter of a percentage point). While the Fed kept interest rates steady at its June meeting, commentary from various Fed members suggest that rate cuts could resume as early as July - assuming that inflation doesn't spike higher due to tariffs.
More of a buyer's market
Bidding wars are less prevalent, more home prices are selling at or below their listing price, and the inventory of homes for sale keeps rising. The supply & demand situation in the housing market is getting more balanced, particularly in the South and West regions. But inventory levels are still low (and price growth still solid) in the Northeast and Midwest.
