- This month’s report displays the market statistics for North America AND Flagstaff month over month as well as the 13-month trend.
- While there is little doubt that the current luxury market is facing challenges, we investigate the slight shift in some of the market’s variables that could be the key to market growth in the future.
- We examine why for the last year the expectations and reactions of buyers and sellers have become entrenched in one of near stalemate.
- Is the biggest contributor of market imbalance ie. lack of inventory, especially new inventory, about to addressed, as numbers in both of these segments increased relative to sales and compared to October 2022.
- For the first time in 2023, monthly sales outnumbered the previous year’s sales in both single-family and attached markets – was this because of increased inventory?
- Additionally, buyers saw fixed mortgage rates fall slightly, sparking an increase in applications as well as speculation that rates may come down during 2024.
- We investigate the significance of these changes, and if they signify the start of a new trend.
- However, while we are optimistic, we also remain cautionary, recognizing that there are unlikely to be any dramatic repercussions, other than the start of moving away from a year of hesitation and resistance
