Home Buyers Out in Force in Ridgewood
Pending Home Sales Exceed Already High Expectations
Nationwide Pending Home Sales Chart
Pending Home Sales Burst Out with 8.2% Gain
The National Association of Realtors (NAR) said Monday its seasonally adjusted index of sales contracts rose 8.2 percent from January.
The Pending Home Sales Index is an important measurement. A pending home is a home that is under contract to sell - but has not yet closed.
According to the NAR, 80% of homes under contract will close within 60 days. So, a higher Pending Sales figure in February projects that April’s Home Sales will be higher as well.
If you’re a Ridgewood home buyer today, no doubt you’ve noticed the extra market activity.
On homes that are priced well, multiple offer situations are becoming more common and sales prices are getting closer to the listing price. Also, days on market is falling. These are the signals of a buyer-heavy market. This usually drives property supplies down and prices up.
It’s not a bad time to be selling a Ridgewood Home.
In November 2009, when the home buyer credit faced its first expiration, we saw a pattern of buyers rushing to beat the deadline. There’s no reason to expect that won’t happen again. And as it does, Ridgewood Pending Home Sales should continue to climb. Average home sale prices should also rise.

Excellent post, It’s nice to see a positive article on the market!
does this chart go back further so we can compare against a period prior to the depression and worst home sales period in US history? thanks buddy, keep up the one-sided argument….it may just close a sale!
LaLaLand – Things can change at any time but I imagine even you are starting to feel that things are looking up in real estate.
