Those homes took on average 68 days to sell, an increase of nearly 8% from a year earlier, yet still a fairly fast sales time. Based on 841 homes being sold in November there is roughly a 3-month supply of homes in Fairfax County. This means that if buyers continued to buy at the same pace as they did in November each month going forward and there were no new homes placed on the market for sale, the supply of houses for sale would run out in less than 3 months. This is a sign of a strong real estate market. Additionally, sellers are getting over 95% of what they list their home for. So if a seller listed their home for $100,000 they would, on average, end up selling it for $95,000. The number of homes for sale decreased 13% to 2,263. The number of homes that came on the market 746 is down over 1.5% from a year ago. The number of new contracts that buyers placed on homes for sale decreased roughly 3% from 872 to 847 in December. While buyer activity has slowed slightly and sales and inventory is down, overall most of the above factors indicate a very healthy real estate market in Fairfax County.

Hi! I’m Brad Chandler of Express Homebuyers and the Following is your December 2011 Real Estate Statistics for the District of Columbia
The average sales price of a home sold in December was $536,764, a decrease of 2% from a year earlier. 495 homes were sold in the District in December, a 2.5% increase from last December. Those homes took on average 76 days to sell – this is a decrease of almost 4%. Based on 447 homes being sold in November there is a 3.7-month supply of homes. This means that if buyers continued to buy at the same pace as they did in November each month going forward and there were no new homes placed on the market for sale, the supply of houses for sale would run out in less than 4 months. Sellers are getting on average 94% of what they list their home for. So if a seller listed their home for $100,000 they would, on average, end up selling it for $94,000. The District currently has 1,657 homes for sale. This number has decreased 27% from a year ago, while the number of homes that came on the market in December – 409 – decreased by 15%. The number of new contracts that buyers placed on homes for sale increased from 468 to 475 – virtually the same from a year ago. Other than active listings and new listings being significantly down, little has changed from a year ago. The supply of houses indicates a very healthy real estate market in DC. Speculation is that banks will begin to process more foreclosures, thus pushing up new and active listings. We will have to wait and see on that.

Brad Chandler shares October 2011 Real Estate Statistics for Prince William County, Virginia
Representing a 1 percent increase from a year earlier, the average sales price of a home sold in October was $275,43. Almost 12 percent fewer home (394) were sold in Prince William County than in last October. Those homes took on average 54 days to sell. While it’s a 26 percent increase – it’s still a short sales time. Based on 410 homes being sold in September, there is a 3-month supply of homes in Prince William County. This means that if buyers continued to buy at the same pace as they did in September each month going forward and there were no new homes placed on the market for sale, the supply of houses for sale would run out in 3 months. On average, sellers are getting almost 96 percent of what they list their home for, which means that if the seller listed their home for $100,000 they would, on average, end up selling it for $96,000. The number of homes for sale decreased 14 percent from a year ago to 1,409 while the number of homes that came on the market decreased 17 percent to 575 homes. Undoubtedly, this is because the foreclosure process temporarily came to a halt in late 2010. Supposedly, this will soon change and the banks resume processing foreclosures. Buyer activity has increased over the last year, as the number of new contracts that buyers placed on homes for sale increased by more than 15 percent. A combination of lower interest rates – which are currently at an all time low – coupled with buyer’s perception that we are at the bottom of the pricing cycle and prices will likely increase has sent homebuyers shopping. All of the statistics indicate a very healthy real estate market in Prince William County. Have any questions about this information? Want to sell your Prince William County house fast?
