Just as it looked like we had seen the peak of the market year, a good number of the stats had a solid week with solid performance. What we have come to expect each week with the amount of new listing additions has had a surprising change, it's much less. Although we are seeing less of these additions in comparison to the last few years, the overall bulk still remains at record heights, and for this week, there is no change in that. In fact, we have actually hit a record height again this week. Still, the amount of sales that have been occurring in the last few months coupled with the lower amount of new listing additions will surely have an impact sooner or later, if the trend maintains anyway. It looks as if this may be the case, for a few more weeks anyways, as there has been a good number of accepted offers loaded into the breech for the coming weeks. Sale values remain steady despite a larger than normal spread between listing and sales prices, which may have been the reason for the longer than average days on market count. Basically, the average home may have had to wait longer, and reduced their price more than average to get this sort of event results. Typical market reaction of overpriced products.
