I just love numbers, especially on a Monday morning. Here are some numbers for January 2016 home sales by St. Paul, Neighborhood. Real estate really is that local and as a homeowner myself I like to know about sales in my own neighborhood. The data used to make the chart below was gently extracted from the NorthstarMLS. It was then imported into MS Excel where is was sorted and never shaken. Data from the NorthstarMLS is deemed reliable but not guaranteed . . and as we all know there are few guarantees in life.
I have written about this before but every time I look to see the number of homes for sale in St. Paul I see a new low for the number of homes on the market. 606 is indeed a new low and has me wondering how low we can go. To have a healthy real estate market we need to have more than 47 closed sales in a month. In a good month for home sales we would see at least 300 homes newly listed.
Home prices continue to rise in spite of threats of rising interest rates. If you would like to sell your home please contact me. I will give anyone who sites this article a 25% discount on my fees.
