2017 MARKET OUTLOOK

First quarter sales will certainly be in line with last year as there are 111 homes currently under contract in the above mentioned communities. Inventories are low now so many buyers are on the sidelines waiting for the new crop of homes to hit the market over the next 30-60 days.

It's hard to imagine the market being better overall than in 2016, especially with a possibility of rates increasing. The determining factor may be available inventory over the next 3-4 months.

Homes will continue to sell for close to 96% of asking price. It certainly helps a seller if the home is properly priced and staged up front.

Buyers would be wise to get pre-approved well in advance so they can jump on the right home when it comes on the market. With limited inventory, especially early in the year, you can't afford to hesitate.
