MONTHLY STAT PACK Data through November 30 , 2013

MONTHLY RESIDENTIAL REVIEW

Welcome to the ERA Shields Stat Pack. The intention for providing this infor-

mation to you is to educate you on the current local real estate market so you

can better make decisions for you and your family. Real estate markets vary

from city to city as well as neighborhood to neighborhood. When the national

media reports on how the real estate market is doing, it is reporting on national

numbers and it is likely very different from how your neighborhood is perform-

ing. You will find factual data within The Stat Pack from which you may draw

your own conclusions. On the last page you will find a brief summary.

QUICK FACTS Number of Active Listings continues to trend up—a 10% rise from a year ago

Number of Sales dipped for the month 4.3%

Single Family Building Permits are up nearly 20% for the year

Inventory Levels increased by 30 days

Average Sales Price is up 7% while Median Sales Price is up 8% for the month

64% of sales in the past 3 months were $250K and under

Foreclosure starts for the year are down 45%

This graph compares the number of homes on the market to the number of

sales for the month. It shows how many months it would take to sell through the current listing invento-ry. Most economists con-sider 6.0 months to be a

balanced market.

November 2013 Summary

This year will historically be remembered as the year the local real estate market recovered from the Great Recession. The number of sales jumped by 20% and is now at a very sustaina-ble rate for the Colorado Springs metro area. Another very positive number this year has been home prices which will end the year somewhere between 7%-10%. Prices were driven up by the demand as well as a lack of inventory for most of this year. For buyers, this year has been a mixed bag. Those who found a home to purchase found values are still outstanding despite a bump in rates. However, due to the lack of inventory many “would be” buyers are still waiting for an acceptable home. The good news for this group is inventory is inching up, the bad news is so are the costs associated with getting a loan. As 2013 comes to an end, the residential real estate market in the Colorado Springs area is healthy. However, there is much uncertainty around the financial health of the federal govern-ment and the impacts of the new healthcare system. For those in the real estate & mortgage industries, 2014 is also a year of uncertainty as something known as QM, QRM and ATR rolls out January 1. Be sure to watch for our Annual Stat Pack where we will go into detail about what this means as well as what you can expect in 2014 as it relates to home sales.
