The first week if April is the unofficial marker for sellers to aim at, but the dreary forecast has put a "damper" on their plans. Still a good showing this week despite the white stuff, but definitely fell short of last years listing additions with that whopping 496 count. Buyer activity remains steady and on par with last year at this time, and did manage to surpass last years report. Values remain steady, although single family homes took a bit of an undercut, but overall prices are holding strong. I would be pretty vain to think my rant last week regarding vacant land had anything to do with the decrease in inventory in quite a while, but it does seem pretty coincidental, especially for this time of year! More likely, it was a few larger developments that have paused their listings to try again another day, but I wonder... With the first quarter in the bag, I will be interested to see how the market reported overall, and I plan on getting that report to the blog asap! You will have to stop by to see for yourself!
