NOVEMBER REAL ESTATE BLOG
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and are ramping up for the home stretch with lots of time spent with family and friends! This fall has been very interesting in the real estate world. When comparing this November to last our median sales price has gone down $325,000 in Laurelhurst, and our cumulative days on market has doubled from 42 in November of 2018 to 86 this year. Our market has definitely shifted from a sellers market to more of a balanced market with buyers not feeling the urgency to buy as they have in the past. Interest rates are remaining remarkably low which is encouraging for both buyers and sellers.
Another positive development is that the 2020 maximum conforming loan limit will be raised to $510,400 from the current level of $484,350. This increase marks the 4th straight year the FHFA has increased the conforming loan limits after not increasing them for an entire decade (2006-2016)!
I look forward to sharing my end of the year read estate overview of our neighborhood with 2020 housing predictions. Until then, Happy Holidays.
