Single Family Home Sellers Getting 98.2% Of Their List Price in January 2020

For 2020, The National Association of REALTORS® Chief Economist Lawrence Yun sees good news for home prices. “National median home price growth is in no danger of falling due to inventory shortages and will rise by 4%,” the long-term NAR economist predicts. He is also expecting the new-home construction market sales to increase 10%. Yun and others
would like to see home builders bring more affordable units to market to help ease shortages and slow price gains in that segment.

New Listings decreased 4.8 percent for Single Family but increased 2.4
percent for Townhouse/Condo. Pending Sales increased 21.9 percent for
Single Family and 9.1 percent for Townhouse/Condo. Inventory decreased
30.1 percent for Single Family and 21.9 percent for Townhouse/Condo.

Median Sales Price increased 5.2 percent to $245,000 for Single Family and 9.7 percent to $170,000 for Townhouse/Condo. Days on Market decreased
14.6 percent for Single Family and 13.3 percent for Townhouse/Condo.
Months Supply of Inventory decreased 33.3 percent for Single Family and
21.1 percent for Townhouse/Condo.

We start off the year with continued low interest rates, low unemployment, and rising rents nationally. These factors should encourage healthy buyer
demand and sets us up for a strong start to the 2020 housing market and a lot of optimism for the coming spring market.
