October’s HomeDex Report for North San Diego County:
The Lawhead Team would like to share the latest HomeDex Report for North San Diego County for October:
October continued to be busier than the calendar normally suggests. Buyer activity remains higher than normal for this time of year, while in many segments of the market housing supply remains much lower than one year ago. Multiple offers remain a common occurrence in many areas, keeping housing hot while the temperatures continue to fall.
Closed Sales increased 36.6 percent for Detached homes but decreased 19.8 percent for Attached homes. Pending Sales increased 35.7 percent for Detached homes and 14.7 percent for Attached homes.
The Median Sales Price was up 11.8 percent to $777,000 for Detached homes and 7.2 percent to $504,000 for Attached homes. Days on Market decreased 38.5 percent for Detached homes and 35.3 percent for Attached homes. Supply decreased 50.0 percent for Detached homes and 53.8 percent for Attached homes.
Mortgage rates dropped to new record lows again in October, helping to offset the monthly mortgage payment increases caused by the rise in home prices seen in many segments of the market across the country. While prices often dip a bit in the winter months, continued buyer demand may temper any price retreats this year.
