Mt. Hood January Real Estate Sales
Sales are out for January on the mountain. Considering we had tons of sun and accessibility was good, closed sales continued into January after an exceptional fourth quarter for 2013! Our pending sales are holding steady and up from last January. The total market time is still showing a high number of days reflecting that we are still working on older inventory that is moving.
News stories abound on lack of inventory but the mountain still has plenty to choose from and we expect a robust year with new listings coming on the market as we head towards spring. Continued low rates make purchasing right now an exceptional time to buy a home. Most expert predict we will see a full percentage point increase by this time 2015. This could easily increase a payment by $200 per month!
