This Month in Real Estate June 2017

by Galand Haas

Good Monday Morning!

The national home market has slowed slightly as home prices continue to rise.  The question both locally and nationally is whether the fast rising home prices have now started to effect sales.  Home affordability has certainly become an issue with double digit home price increases over the past year.  The question at this time is not if the market will slow due to rising prices, but when.  The next few months should be interesting!

Latest Market Activity for May 2017

by Galand Haas

Good Morning!

May of 2017 showed as a very strong month for the Eugene and Springfield area housing market.  Home sale were up and home price continued to increase.  With home pricing up at near 10% over the last year, home affordability may be a huge factor in the coming months.  Here is the May 2017 home sales report for Lane County.

Lane County had strong activity across the board this May. New listings (752) outpaced May 2016 (657) by 14.5% and April 2017 (577) by 30.3%. The last May that saw new listings as strong was in 2007, when 804 new listings were offered for the month. 

Pending sales (638) bested May 2016 (567) by 12.5% and April 2017 (488) by 30.7%.—the strongest May on the RMLS record, which dates to 2001. 

Closed sales (444) were less strong, but still edged 0.7% over the 441 closings from May 2016 and 23.0% over the 361 closings recorded last month in April 2017. 

Total market time decreased to 51 days in May, with inventory slimming slightly to 1.6 months. 


Year to Date Summary 

Comparing the first five months in 2017 to the same period in 2016, new listings (2,642) have decreased 2.0%, closed sales (1,765) have decreased 3.1%, and pending sales (2,220) have decreased 4.4%.
