November 2011 Home Sales Overview Total Closed Sales Up, Average Home Sales Prices, Inventory & Foreclosures Down Data and article excerpts from

changes elsewhere in the marketplace.

In November, new listings in the Charlotte

region decreased 16.3%, pending sales

were up 12.8%, inventory levels shrank 24%

(a common trend across the country), and

average home sales price decreased 10.3%.

Foreclosed inventory levels have dropped

nearly 75% form their peak in 2010.

Not only do forces beyond supply and de-

mand affect home prices, but other factors

Home prices are one of the most popular

barometers of market vitality, yet they only

tell part of the story. Soft prices may ac-

company improvements in other indicators

such as purchase demand, absorption

rates, seller concessions or market times.

Regional, market-wide prices fall short by

not recognizing the mix of homes that close

each month, be it weighted toward single-

family, lender-mediated or new construc-

tion. In addition, price movements often lag

outside of housing serve as inputs into the

equation. New job growth and consumer

confidence drive household formations

which in turn fuels purchase demand and

pressures prices. Similarly, when real in-

comes rise, families can afford more house

and move-up buyers become increasingly

motivated. To that end, the jobless rate fell

from 9.0 percent to 8.6 percent in Novem-

ber – the lowest in 2.5 years.
