Real Estate Statistics

We now have the lowest months supply of homes 7.6 months supply than we've had since July of 2007. Yes, July of 2007. We have been averaging about 9 months supply so far this year.

Average days on market dropped 7.7% from January to April. We are now at 88 days. But not the greatest comfort when it is taking your home to much time to sell. Abaris Team William Staab and Jordan Knecht's average: 63 days.

More homes closed last month (588) since October of 2008. That number was slightly higher than March's number.

More homes went under contract in April (873) since May of 2008. In fact, April beat March by 17.8%. That means more homes went under contract in April than in the "busy" months of last summer 2008.

Between the $8,000 tax credit: http://www.federalhousingtaxcredit.com/2009/index.html
and programs such as the New Mexico Mortage Finance Authority:


This may be a good time to buy a home, contact us today to see if homebuying is an option for you.

As we move into the busy home buying season here in Albuquerque, although the statistics are showing signs of positive economic life, they haven't really been on life support here in Albuquerque as some other areas of the country, and even in the hardest hit states, the problem has really been in only 35 counties in all of those states.

I do not like to post just raw statistics here on the blog since the information is so readily available on every Real Estate website, ad infinitum, but try to provide you with information about the exceptional services offered on BuyaHouseNewMexico.com that will help you make a wise choice in the home you sell or purchase and insure that you have Realtors and Real Estate service providers that will provide the highest level of satisfaction and customer service.
