Derek's Real estate Update: Drought & gas prices affecting sales? April sales

Hello​ Friends- 

I hope all is well. Those with Graduates I hope you are enjoying this time of year. Real estate. Real estate continues to steadily do well.  Even, with gas prices a little higher & drought(Thank God for the rain we have recieved. More rain may be coming) does not seem to be having a big effect on the market. Other than there has been some stabilization of values. But, interest rates still seem to be good.(Did not get them in time for this post) 
As stated, Local market values are seeing a stabilization.

The state of California though, is doing well.

As per the Fresno Multiple Listing service, in the Fresno/Clovis area:

__________________________________________


As of today, the present inventory of active homes in the Fresno/Clovis area stands at 1,​272
​1290 active homes in April '14. (Minimal difference from a year ago)

We have,what I call, a present monthly absorption rate of
 ​approx.​48%. 

Lot of sales, but, the values have seemed to have stabilized for the 1st 4 months of 2015.

But, as you can see, the average sales price
& the Median price are up from a year ago. 


Overall, with ​good interest rates​, loan program(s) availability, the Real estate market looks healthy. Good time to buy. Good time to make that move.
