1 ly Indicators A RESEARCH TOOL PROVIDED BY THE CHARLOTTE REGIONAL REALTOR ASSOCIATION FOR MORE INFORMATION CONTACT A REALTOR 2014 Most local markets continue to recover from a soft patch earlier this year. The macro trend is still positive; the micro trend involves more moderate pinching up and down the month-to-month timeline. This is not uncommon in a balanced market, but it's been so long since we've seen one that we're watching it with perhaps too much trepidation. Metrics to watch include inventory and prices, but also days on market, months' supply and percent of list price received at sale. Declines in pending and closed sales activity may reflect strong decreases at lower price points and may not indicate softening demand. New Listings in the Charlotte region decreased 4.0 percent to 4,407. Pending Sales were up 29.9 percent to 3,536. Inventory levels fell 8.6 percent to 15,395 units. Prices continued to gain traction. The Median Sales Price increased 1.6 percent to $185,500. List to Close was down 6.8 percent to 123 days. Sellers were encouraged as s Supply of Inventory was down 14.3 percent to 5.2 months. Sustained job growth, lower mortgage rates and a slow rise in the number of homes for sale appear to have unleashed at least some pent-up demand. Since housing demand relies heavily on an economy churning out good jobs, it's encouraging to see second quarter GDP growth revised upwards to a 4.2 percent annualized rate and stronger-than-expected job growth in recent months. Further improvements are still needed by way of wage growth and Quick Facts + 8.1% + 1.6% - 8.6% -Over- Change in Closed Sales -Over- Change in Median Sales Price -Over- Change in Inventory Market Overview 2 New Listings 3 Pending Sales 4 Closed Sales 5 List to Close 6 Days on Market Until Sale 7 Cumulative Days on Market Until Sale 8 Average List Price 9 Average Sales Price 10 Median Sales Price 11 Percent of Original List Price Received 12 Housing Affordability Index 13 Inventory of Homes for Sale 14 s Supply of Inventory 15 Click on desired metric to jump to that page.
