Homes Selling at a Brisker Pace This Fall


Homes are selling “significantly” faster compared to last year at this time, according to realtors.com®’s National Housing Trend Report for October 2013.
“Instead of the usual seasonal slowdown, October data shows the 2013 fall market moving at a fast pace,” says Errol Samuelson, president of realtor.com®.
The median age of the inventory – viewed as a leading indicator of demand – dropped 11.32 percent in October compared to year ago levels, “demonstrating resilience to seasonal changes and stabilized inventory,” realtor.com® notes.
Nationwide, the median age of inventory was 94 days.
