We are all looking at things a little differently... |
We have all had more time at home lately and that has given many of us the time to evaluate and re-evaluate how, where and why we might be living. Lots of people are now interested in "right-sizing" their housing and we've seen a big increase in activity over the past month or so, even during our shelter-in-place. Changes are happening and many people believe Moraga and our Lamorinda area are the place to be! |
According to CNBC, existing home sales plummeted in May as the coronavirus continued to hammer the economy, but real estate agents expect that it will represent the bottom. Sales of existing homes in May fell 9.7% compared with April, to a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of 3.91 million units, according to the National Association of Realtors. Sales were down 26.6% annually. That is the largest annual decline since 1982 when interest rates were about 18% and the slowest sales pace since October 2010. Our local recovery seems strong thus far and not all markets will recover at the same time. Below is a look at our local market activity in Moraga, Lamorinda, and Contra Costa County. |
The above chart shows the number of listings in Contra Costa County entering the market by week, showing a steady increase from the beginning of April. |
This chart compares the number of active listings (on the left) and those that go into contract (on the right) year over year. The lighter blue and purple lines correspond with 2019 activity, while the darker blue and purple represent 2020. These trend lines indicate that we are close to approaching typical spring/summer inventory levels. |
