The number of listings closed so far in 2012 is up 3% in Summit County! The number of listings that are under contract is up 30%!
If we assume that all the listings that are under contract close and assume that all the listings that were under contract last year at this time also closed and added those numbers to the already sold for each year…well, over the next couple months that 3% improvement this year may move up into around a 10% improvement in the number of listings sold in Summit County. The current active listings are coming in at 9% below last year at this time.
The residential listings sold this year have sold for about 2.5% less than last year and the square foot price is about 8% less than last year. The percent of sold price to list price is up 1.33 percentage points to 94%. The average list price of the listings currently under contract is the same as the average sold price of listings that have already sold this year. Thus if we remain at the 94% sold versus list the pending is looking at around a 6% decline from today’s average sold price. Interesting.
The number of new listings this past week is up with 45 but also down about 26% as compared to the same week last year. The number of listings going under contract this past week is up over last year’s by 53% and the number of sold listings is the same.
