August 2009 Twin Cities Real Estate Market Video Update—Assessing the Seesawing Real Estate Statistics

The supply and demand seesaw is showing more positive indicators in the Twin Cities housing market according to the Minneapolis Association of Realtors® monthly skinny for August 2009. Pending sales numbers are the best they have looked since 2005…up for the 13 consecutive month in a row. Inventory is down 22% since July 2008…another great indicator of a recovering market. Days on the Market are also down significantly. But a significant amount of the sales continue to be lender mediated short sales and foreclosures so while we can be optimistic, it is best to remain cautiously optimistic when considering the Twin Cities real estate market.



If you are a first time buyer interested in taking advantage of the $8000 tax credit, don’t delay! I am continuing to field questions daily from excited first time Twin Cities north and east metro homebuyers on the specifics of this unique $8000 Tax Refund opportunity. (If you have a question call on the program, just let me know with a call or text to 651-336-7073 or just send a quick
email.)
