“With the exception of last year, new listings coming to market exceed that of every other April for the last ten years. With the increase in inventory, buyers are finally experiencing more choices in the market. While inventory is still below the norm, we finally see signs of a more balanced market as the number of active listings increases. The rise in interest rates has likely attributed to a decrease in the number of sales month over month in every residential property category across the RAHB market area. While average prices remain strong, and still above the $1 million mark, we did experience another dip for the second month in a row.” - RAHB President Lou Piriano.
