Real Estate Market Watch for Des Moines, Iowa / Week of March 31st, 2008

by Tyler Osby on April 8, 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:

Over the past couple of weeks we have seen many more people list their homes as we move into the spring season.  We are right where we were a year ago as far as listings, however things aren’t selling like they were a year ago.  If you or any of your clients are looking to purchase a home, now is actually a great time to do so.  Selection is high and the cost of ownership is low right now and will only be increasing over the next year.”

I hope you enjoy the statistics as much as I do!
