Des Moines, Iowa – Real Estate Market Watch – Week of 3/17/08

by Tyler Osby on March 25, 2008

Numbers are always extremely important to consider when buying, selling and financing a home.  Each week, I receive a weekly market watch update providing the breakdown of the activity from last week.  The report is provided by Heather Barglof at Peoples Company. As I continue to get them, I will continue to post them (with her permission of course). Here is her brief market commentary this week:

“While sales are down we are seeing a decrease in average days on market over the last month or so.  As you can see the amount of new listings took a little jump last week which probably has to do with people wanting to get their house on the market before the warm weather hits.  I anticipate we will see sales numbers rise from where there are now, but won’t probably surpass our numbers from last year at this time.”

I hope you enjoy these statistics as much as I do.
