Derek's Real Estate Update:Values rising? Drought & gas prices affecting sales? May sales

Hello​ Friends- 
I hope all is well. It is warm, isn't it?, Lol. The graduates are out & about doing what graduates do. My son's last day of the school year(Soph.) at Clovis West was impactive. Where ever he goes, he seems to make an eternal impact. I am very proud of that young man.Real estate. Real estate continues to do well. Gas prices dropping. The drought has not made a significant impact. After 4 months of stable prices, values are starting to rise. 
Interest rates still seem to be good.(Did not get them in time for this post) 



Please see my stats & my commentary on the local market Below.

LAST MONTH'S REAL ESTATE SALES

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

​Homes sold last month, May.'15: 644.
A year ago,​ May '14, homes sales were ​626. 

620 homes sold in April.'15.

Average sales price was $224,533 (​May.'14) 

Median sales price was $2​23,950 ​​(​May.'15) 
Median sales price was $202,000 (​May.'14)


Breakdown per price range & Days on Market




​276  homes sold under $200,000. the avg. D.O.M.: 40
​​
​310 homes sold from $200-400,000.The avg. D.O.M.:51
 61 homes sold from $400,000 Plus. The avg. D.O.M.:​101​
_________________________________________


As of today, the present inventory of active homes in the Fresno/Clovis area stands at 1,​312. Slight rise from 1271 from the month before. 
​1290 active homes in May '14. (Minimal difference from a year ago)

We have,what I call, a present monthly absorption rate of
 ​approx.​49%. 

Lot of sales,values are starting to rise again after 4 months of stable prices.

But, as you can see, the average sales price
& the Median price are up from a year ago. the median up about 20% rise from 1 year ago.


Overall, with ​good interest rates​, good loan program(s) & availability of those programs, the Real estate market looks healthy. Good time to buy. Good time to make that move. Pick up an investment.

​As you probably know, ​most real estate decisions need wise counsel. Do not hesitate to contact me.
