Ann Arbor Condo Market Update – January 2015

Sale Up, Inventory Down for Ann Arbor Condos

Ann Arbor Condo Statistics for January 2015
The new year started off strong for Ann Arbor Condo sales, but a lack of listing inventory continues to be an issue. At the end of January, there were 135 units listed for sale compared with 150 at that time last year, keeping Ann Arbor in a seller’s market with a 2.4 months supply of available condos. In fact, all price ranges currently fall into a seller’s market.

Just last week here at The Bouma Group, we listed a condo at Heatherwood and within 2 days of it being on the market, we received 3 offers! This just shows that there are buyers ready to purchase immediately. If you’ve been considering selling your unit, don’t hesitate, the market needs inventory now. Give us a call at 734-761-3060 or info@bouma.com and get listed today with Ann Arbor’s Premier Real Estate team!

What You Should Know About US Home Sales

Here is an overview of the highlights of the most recent real estate market report:

  • The median price of an existing single-family home increased year-over-year in 86 percent of 175 metropolitan areas.
  • 24 areas had price gains of 10 percent or more.
  • That figure is up from 16 regions during the third quarter.
  • Meanwhile, prices declined in 24 areas.

  • At the end of the fourth quarter, there were 1.85 million previously-owned homes listed for sale, down from 2.01 million a year earlier.
  • The number of markets that saw year-over-year price gains in the fourth quarter has increased.
  • The median price for an existing single-family home in the three months through December was $208,700, which is up 6 percent from the fourth quarter of 2013.
