Chicagoland Real Estate Market Watch from Koenig & Strey!

CHICAGOLAND REAL ESTATE MARKET JANUARY – APRIL 2010

In the first four months of 2010, the Chicagoland real estate market showed significant improvement over last year with gains in the number of homes sold and other key real estate metrics. More than 5.7 billion dollars of homes were sold throughout the region with an average MLS sale price of $227,708, which is very near the average sale price one year ago.

MARKET VELOCITY COMPARED TO 2009

The market continues to absorb inventory, with the numbers of months’ supply dipping well below nine months in April, after climbing above twenty months at the beginning of last year. The number of homes for sale in April increased slightly from the previous month, while the average market time continues to shorten. The number of units sold was 43 percent above April 2009, with a corresponding 49 percent increase in dollar volume.

The positive trend is likely to continue, as the number of contracts remains strong. In April, pending sales reached their highest point in two years, with written business nearly double that of April 2009.

MORTGAGE UPDATE – RATES REMAIN NEAR 5%

Rates for 30 year fixed loans stayed near five percent throughout the month of April briefly increasing to 5.21 percent, then declining for three weeks to 5.00 percent for the week ending 5/6/2010. Attractive loan rates continue to be a strong factor for both move-up and new buyers, along with increased affordability and a wide selection of homes.

KOENIG & STREY

There is a tremendous amount of activity at Koenig & Strey Real Living. We are launching our new branding and identity while doing an exceptional volume of business. With a 66 percent increase in the number of homes sold in 2010, we are performing well above the 40 percent increase in the rest of the Chicagoland market.

Put Today’s Low Interest Rates To Work For You

May 10, 2010 by Marina

Leave a Comment



Waiting doesn’t always pay off – interest rates may rise while you are waiting for home prices to go down even lower. It’s a buyer’s market in most areas, and rates are historically low. Below is an example of the difference in monthly payment if interest rates rise 1%.



In addition, purchasing power goes down as interest rates go up. If interest rates rise by 1% – and you want to maintain a monthly principle and interest payment near the one shown above at the lower interest rate – your purchasing power would be reduced by over 10%, from a sales price of $300,000 to $269,645.



The payment amount provided does not include homeowners insurance or property taxes which must be paid in addition to your loan. Your actual payment may be higher. Your loan’s interest rate will depend upon the specific characteristics of the loan transaction and your credit profile up to the time of closing. If the down payment is less than 20%, mortgage insurance may be required and could increase the monthly payment and APR.

Talk to me about your financial needs and goals. Why wait when you could be taking action! Now may be a great time to purchase a home! My expertise in home buying can help you when looking for your dream home. If you are looking to buy a home in Glenview, Northbrook, Morton Grove or Chicago call me, Marina Jacobson at 847-510-5009 or email me Marina@MarinaJacobsonHomes.com.
