Next week is the last week of the year.  We will compare to 2020 and 2019 so you can see how this year did compared to the previous 2 years.  You will see more closed homes this year than the previous 2 years even with such low inventory.

Buyers are still out there looking for homes to come on the market.  So many of them lost out to multiple offer situations.

2022 looks to be more of the same.  There is a shortage of homes across the nation.  Until more homes are built or converted we will see prices increase.

Conventional is still the most used way to finance buying a home.  If your loan officer qualified you for FHA financing you should ask them to also qualify you for Conventional and see where you are at.  You might be able to purchase a higher price with FHA but if you are up against another offer the seller will most likely take the Conventional offer over FHA.

June was the best month of the year so far.  I don’t think December will have that much activity.  There is always reasons people need to sell so don’t give up if you are a buyer.

Even though things have slowed down it is still a great time to sell.  Not much competition out there.

Contact us

Call us with all your real estate questions.  Your goal is our goal.  We will do everything we can to help you reach your goal.

Request a home valuation if you are thinking about selling your home.  We will let you know what your home is worth in today’s market and give you a net proceeds that shows you an estimate of the expenses to sell.  This will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms.

Thinking about buying a home?  You need to get pre approved with a loan officer.  Get all your financial information together and get it to your loan officer so they can get you pre approved.  Seller’s want to know that you qualify for their home before they will even consider an offer from you.  The loan officer will give you a letter that shows what you qualify for and what type of loan that will go with an offer when you find the right home.

It is our job to make sure you qualify before we take you looking at homes.  You do not want to fall in love with a home that you don’t qualify for.  We look at many things like how much the taxes are or if the home needs work.  If the taxes are too high or if there is a homeowner Association fee sometimes that can put you over what you qualify for.  It depends on what type of loan you are going for if there are things the home needs to repair and the owner is not willing to make the repairs.

Resources:

Check with your loan officer for the interest rates you qualify for with your credit score.  The better your credit score, the better the interest rate you will be offered.  If you need to work on your credit score your loan officer will be able to give you some guidance on how to bring up.

If you need recommendations for a loan officer, real estate attorney or home inspector we can give you a few to contact and you can decide who you want to work with.

This year had the best sold homes with the least amount of new listings.  That is the column that is most important.  June was the best month over all this year. 

Most years it is the Spring months that see the most new listings.  The economist’s keep saying we will see more of the same next year.  We will have to wait and see if the Infrastructure bill that was past has an effect on the new listings.  There might be more movement where the projects are.  Some states have shovel-ready projects.

You can see how the new listings decreased every year since 2019.  That is the reason for the price increases.  Until we see enough homes on the market to satisfy buyer demand prices will continue to rise.

New listings have slowed down.  Buyers are still out there waiting for more homes to come on the market.  Prices have slowed some buyers down, but there are still buyers out there ready to buy even though prices have increased.

Call us at 630-503-6555 with all your real estate questions.  Your goal is our goal.  We will do everything we can to help you reach your goal.

Thinking about selling your home?  Request a home valuation and give us some information about your home and what has been updated recently.  Roof, siding, wiring, plumbing, furnace, Air conditioning, interior paint, remodeled kitchen or baths.  Any additions or professional landscaping.  Did you get permits?  We will provide you with a net proceeds that shows you an estimate of expenses to sell so you will have an idea where you are at.  This will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms.

If you are thinking about buying a home you will need to get pre approved with a loan officer.  Get all your financial information together and submit them to a loan officer so they can get you pre approved.  They will give you a letter showing what type of loan and how much you qualify for.  We will submit this with an offer when you find a home so you can show the seller that you do qualify for their home.

Resources:

Check with your loan officer for the current rates that you qualify for with your credit score.  They also might offer some assistance so it is always good to have that conversation with them.

If you need recommendations for a loan officer, real estate attorney or home inspector we can recommend a few for you to contact and you decide who you would like to work with.

I have been attending our National Association of REALTORS® Conference virtually yesterday, today and tomorrow.  They have had some great sessions.  Talking about the economy, appraisals in today’s market and so much more.  They are holding it out in San Diego.   One of my favorite places.

Thinking about selling your home in the near future?  Request a home valuation and give us a little information about your  home and what has recently been updated.  We will let you know what it is worth in today’s market.  We will provide you with a net proceeds that shows you the expenses to sell.  This will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms.  If you are planning on waiting until after the first of the year.  We can update closer to when you are ready.

You might want to plan ahead if you are thinking about buying a home and are wanting to do that by a certain date.  You will need to get all your financial information together and get it to a loan officer if you haven’t already done that.  You need to get pre approved.  They will give you a letter after they are completed that shows what type of loan and how much you qualify for.  This will go with an offer when you find a home.

Resources:

You will want to check with your loan officer for the rates that they are currently offering with your credit score.

Do you need recommendations for loan officers, real estate attorney, or home inspector?  We can provide you a few of each so you can contact them and decide who you would like to work with.

If you are thinking about selling it is still a good time to sell.  Buyers are still out there looking, and with inventory down you will not have as much competition.  Request a home valuation and we will give you and estimate of what your home is worth in today’s market.  We will provide you with a net proceeds that shows you and estimate of expenses.  This will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms.

Thinking about buying a home?  You will need to get all your financial information together and get it to a loan officer.   Just calling up and giving your information is not good enough anymore.  You need to get pre approved so you can show the seller, when you do find a home, that you do qualify.  The loan officer will provide you with a letter that shows what you are pre approved for.  This will go with the offer. 

Resources

Check with your loan officer for the current rates that you qualify for.  Your credit will determine the rate you are offered.  If you need to improve your credit ask the loan officer what will help the most for you.

We will guide you throughout the process.  If you need recommendations for loan officers, real estate attorney or home inspectors we will provide you with a few of each and you can decide who you would like to work with.

Financing became a bigger deal earlier this year when we started receiving multiple offers.  When you are a seller looking at multiple offers you want to choose the offer that is most likely to go through with the least possible issues. 

FHA used to be very popular. Loan officers more likely than not used to do a pre qualification for a FHA loan.  We had to get them to change that, and start doing Conventional financing, because that is what most seller’s were accepting.

Conventional Closed this week 212 with a median price $365,000, last week 168 at $371,829.

Cash closed this week 34 with a median price of #327,450, last week 41 at $278,000.

Buyer’s with the pandemic have been looking for larger homes.  More bedrooms, family room, home offices and larger yards.  We decided to add 2,000 or more square feet to show how many homes sold in this category and what the prices are.

Even with the least new listings 2021 saw the most closed homes in the last 3 years.

Look at the difference in 2019 with new listings to closed homes. 5070  more new listings than closed.  We saw it tighten up in 2020.  1,350 more new listings than closed homes.  In 2021 it flipped.  1,355 more homes closed than new listings.  They were carried over from 2020.

You can see why prices have increased with this tight of a market.  Some of those new listings were relisted as new even though they were not new.  If you just look at the closed column we increased each year.
