You will see that the number will steadily go up each month.  Get with your loan officer to get approval before you miss out on your dream home.  This needs to go with an offer.  The seller will not accept without it in most cases, unless you have cash, and then you will need a letter from your bank showing that you have the funds available.

Totals were down in each one.  We do not know how many VA loan offers are not getting accepted, but the trend you can see is seller’s are accepting more Conventional loans then anything else.  Hopefully, it is not that agents are shying away from VA loans because they think they will be  hard or take longer to close.  If a home is in good condition there should be no problem with getting a VA loan approved.  Using a lender that is familiar with the process is very important.

We started out the year ahead with closed homes.  Deals that were accepted in 2020 that closed in the beginning of the year.  There is usually a gap between new and closed, but not this year.
It continues to be a seller’s market.  We are still seeing multiple offers, but it is not as intense.  We are starting to see price reductions on some of the higher priced homes.

Request a home valuation

if you are thinking about selling your home.  Give us some information about what has been recently updated.  We will provide you with a net proceeds that shows you the expenses to sell so you can see 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 want to find a loan officer that will put you through the process to get pre approved.  Getting pre-qualified just is not enough anymore when you are going to be up against multiple offers.  Seller’s will be confident in accepting an offer with a pre approval before they accept an offer with a buyer that has not gone through the process.

We can make recommendations of loan officers, real estate attorneys and home inspectors that we have successfully used in the post.  You can decide who you would like to work with.

How many VA deals closed in week 32.  We hope more agents will get informed about VA loans so they will be more confident in accepting a VA offer.  Our veterans deserve to be able to use their benefits.

Contracts accepted this week

Contracts accepted this week by seller’s on single family homes was pretty consistent.  322 this week compared to 321 the week before.  Consistency in the market is a wonderful thing.  Some talk about it slowing a bit.  Maybe there are not as many offers on a property as there was, but buyers are still out there looking to buy.  It continues to be a seller’s market here in the Fox Valley area of Illinois.

2021 Real Estate Market Update Week 29-Contracts accepted this week

Look at the communities seller’s accepted the most contracts:

Aurora-53                           Batavia-13

Bolingbrook-23                  Geneva-10

Montgomery-12                 Naperville-50

Oswego-14                         Plainfield-46

St Charles-27                   Yorkville-14

No short sales were accepted by seller’s this week.  That does not mean that they are not out there.  Most people that need to sell, that normally would be selling short, have had enough price appreciation that they can sell and payoff the loan. 

Seller’s accepted contracts that are contingent on the buyer closing on their current home.  3 with a kick-out clause of 72 hours, 10 with 48 hours and 4 with 24 hours.

Also, seller’s accepted contracts that are contingent on the buyer selling and closing on their current home.  2 with a kick-out clause of 72 hours and 3 with 48 hours.

So far June is the best month across the board.  Closed homes is the most important column to keep track of because this is actual numbers.  Some seller’s can accept a contract but because of many reasons it can go back on the market..

You can see on the contracts accepted column, that contracts have been accepted more than once on a home.  Sometimes because of inspection issues, appraisal issues or loan did not get approved.

Closed is the most important column. These are actual numbers.  At the end of each month I will compare to 2020 and 2019 so you can get a better idea of how this year is going.

It is important to see the breakdown of what happening right now.  I will continue to list this so you can see if things start to change.

Contracts accepted this week

Contracts accepted this week were down.  270 this week compared to 325 the week before.  Last week new listings were down so that makes sense.

No short sales were accepted by seller’s this week.  With the prices going up, even if they need to sell because of not working, most likely they can sell without having to go that route.

Also, seller’s accepted contracts that are contingent on the buyer’s selling and closing on their current home. 2 with a kick-out clause of 24 hours.

Totals                 5928         6398                7679

Closed is the most important column to look at.  We started ahead at the beginning of the year with inventory left over from the previous year.  Not all of the contracts accepted will end up closing.  Sometimes they come back on the market after home inspection/attorney review period of after the appraisal comes in.   Prices have increased, and the appraisals don’t always match, so if they can’t come to an agreement the home goes back on the market.

It continues to be a seller’s market.

Contact us

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 this year?  Request a home valuation and let us know a little bit about your home and what you have updated.  We will let you know what it is worth in today’s market and 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 so you can make a good decision.

If you are thinking about buying a home this year you have to call a loan officer and get them all your financial information so they can get you pre approved.  Pre qualify will not do in today’s market.  You will probably be up against other offers when you do find a home so you want to let the seller’s know that you did this extra step.
