Monthly Indicators

September 2012

+ 30.4% - 0.1% - 23.0%Most housing metrics should follow their usual, autumnal movements – higher inventory and days on market, fewer sales, lower prices. That applies only to month-to-month seasonal trends; most indicators should still show improvement on a year-over-year basis. As you already know, all real estate is local – down to the city neighborhood, suburban development and exurban lot. Let's dive into some local figures.

Residential real estate activity comprised of single-family properties, townhomes and condominiums combined. Percent changes are calculated using rounded figures.

Not to get negative like a political TV ad, but sluggish job growth, persistently high gas prices, drought-induced spikes in food prices and other global events could threaten consumer confidence. The Fed's mortgage purchases drove Freddie Mac's average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage survey to an all-time low of 3.40 percent. Employment growth remains critical, providing the jobs that will stimulate housing demand and push home prices up to help beleaguered homeowners that have been financially unable to sell for several years.
