GRAND STRAND MARKET REPORT April 2013

Here's the mostly good news from Site Tech Systems:

Single family homes sales are up in April, 31.5% from last year; year to date sales are up 19.5% from 2012. The median sales price shows signs of stabilization, up 3.1% from 2012.  However, as the number of sales climbs and prices stabilize, more homes are coming on the market, inventory is about 6% above last year and will probably continue to grow in May.  Increasing inventory tends to keep prices down, but fewer available homes are distressed inventory (homes in some stage of foreclosure) which is good as distressed home sales tend to put downward pressure on prices.

Condo sales, both in number and median price remained flat with 2012 and inventory continues to decline, both overall and distressed, which over the next few months should help prices.

Much better news for sellers and for buyers, time to take action.
