Here is a chart showing annual home and condo sales in Wallingford so far in 2011:
The number of homes sold in April fell in both categories after posting large gains the prior month. Buyer activity remains high however, and the number of properties under deposit has risen for the third consecutive month. Average listing and selling prices are also on an upward trend. We project that these trends will continue and that home sales will continue to rise as summer approaches.
The following chart compares average days on market, or how many days it took to sell a home or condo for the first three months of 2011:
Average days on market for all properties have been trending downward every month so far this year, which is a good sign. Attractive interest rates and declining home prices should continue to stimulate the local market for the next few months, but inventory levels need to come down before we see any sustained improvement.
