| Subject: | Monthly Statistics--March 2008 | ||||||||||||
| 1 | The number of units sold continued to slip in March compared to March of 2007; 327 units sold is a 43.4% change | ||||||||||||
| from the 578 units sold last March. Surprisingly, the number of condos sold slipped even more from 124 in March | |||||||||||||
| 2007 to only 61 in March this year…a 50.8% reduction. Sale of single-family homes in March was down 41% | |||||||||||||
| with homes priced more than $500,000 down 46.1%. | |||||||||||||
| 2 | When comparing the first three months of 2008 with last year we see a slightly better result of 38.7% reduction in units sold. | ||||||||||||
| Looking at condos sales in the first three months, the reduction is 35% down from 287 in 2007 to 186 in 2008. | |||||||||||||
| 3 | Median list price is down 12.65% to $289,900 from $331,913 in 2007. | ||||||||||||
| 4 | Days on Market for all residential types sold increased 53% to 78 this March compared to 51 in March 2007. | ||||||||||||
| 5 | The number of active listings is up 21.3% to 4764 from March of last year. | ||||||||||||
| Summary: I think that is enough bad news for one month. If I can find a silver lining in all of this, it is that with the | |||||||||||||
| number of listings up it means many of you are busier…I hope all your hard work will generate into sales. Hang in there. | |||||||||||||
